Well I've felt totally wrecked today. Daisy's got a cold and her sleep is all over the place. She woke at 12 but resettled without a feed, then at 1am she had a feed but wouldn't settle so I put her in our bed and she went straight to sleep. But then she woke just before 4 and would not go back to sleep, she was wide awake - happy enough at first and just shouting/screeching very loudly - but then eventually got tired but couldn't seem to drop off. She eventually went back to sleep at 6.15am - and our alarm goes off at 6.30!
Just don't know what to do about it. I do think it's partly that she has a cold so can't suck her thumb cos she can't breathe properly, but she also seems to now be in the habit of needing to be fed to go back to sleep. She isn't like this in the day - she settles to sleep without any crying or anything now. Am wondering whether to try a bottle for her dreamfeed, and maybe formula instead of EBM as I just don't have time to express during the day at the moment. She's never taken a bottle though so I don't like my chances...
