contraversial sleep thread alert! if easily offended please look away now.
I was just wondering if anyone did the 6 months bf thing without getting sleep problems. because I weaned dd at 4 months and had no problems. ds2 otoh slept through at 3 months, but started waking again at 4 and a bit. now he's in the habit of waking and I'm so tired I can barely speak.
my mum had 5 babies, all weaned at 4 months, all good sleepers. Lots of friends had good and bad sleepers, but I can't think of one who delayed weaning AND had a good sleeper. I used to say the solids/sleep thing was a myth but I don't think it is now.
so anyway my thought is this. In our efforts to reduce food allergy in delaying weaning, are we raisding a generation of neurotic, sleep deprived infanst who are at greater risk of abuse (well, shouting) from their neurotic, sleep deprived mothers?
