Hey girlie!  I just read your post about night nursing.  That's been on my mind alot recently.

I nurse DD to sleep also.  She usually wakes around 4-5 to eat.  I feel bad doing CIO b/c I wake up at 5 and wake her at 6.  It feels unfair to make her CIO and then wake her 1 hour later.

hey, i just got on...

its frustrating sometimes isn't it?  what's the best thing to do??

for me, on one hand i am tired of waking up in the middle of the night.  on the other, i so rarely get to see her that i don't mind.

well tonight we pumped her full of couscous and more milk.  I'm not going to dreamfeed her.  I'll see how long she goes.  I'm guessing she'll wake at 3am...it's almost habit at this point.  She loves her some boobies!

DD loves em too.  I'd like to be down to 2 feedings a day at this point but we're at about 4 on workdays. 

I get a bit of crap for it but oh well.  It's still good for her and it's not hurting anyone. 

She'll eventually STTN.  Right?!?

I never planned on nursing forever.  I was hoping for a year and committing to six mos.

How bout you?
