Up all night

Up all night cluster feeding. Anyone else? She is wanting to eat pretty much continuously with quick breaks of 15 minutes from the end of one feeding to the start of the next.

I'm up. Nursing the kid right now. I'm hoping she'll let me put her down at some point. She will sleep forever if I hold her, but she wakes up immediately if I put her down.

Oh that sounds similar to my baby. She keeps falling asleep on my breast but is immediately wide awake when I move her. I'm trying to keep her eating so when she's done, she might be content.

My LO is having tummy issues. Add mastisis to that and we are having a horrible night. Had my mom come over to help but she left at 230 to go back home. LO is sound asleep in my arms but as soon as I put her down, she wakes up. If I surround us with pillows, can I fall asleep with her in my arms?

Yup. This is us too for the last 4-5 days. I'm so tired!

The pillows could be a hazard. It's actually much safer to just make your bed safe for bedsharing and nurse side-lying or lay with baby to sleep. Here's some info on how to make your bed safe for bedsharing:

Until two nights ago, I had been setting alarms to wake LO every 2.5 hours to nurse, but last night and the night before, he woke up every 1-1.5 hours on his own. I think we've hit a growth spurt.
