3rd Day

Today is the 3rd of what I hope is cluster feeding!
From around 6am to 7pm all DD does is feed, fall asleep, cry and have her nappy changed.
By 7pm after her bath a good feed she is out for 5ish hours has one night time feed and then sleep for another 3-4 hours!
Really hoping this ends soon because the crying is getting a bit too much on my sanity !

Re: 3rd Day

  • At least shes doing it during the day rather than at night. DD seems to do it in the late evenings and I feel like it gears her up for a good long stretch at night, so I get a decent amount of sleep at night then too. Hang in there momma! You got this!

  • Mines been doing it in the middle of the night. I was thinking earlier it's kinda funny how a few weeks ago we were up at night with pregnancy heartburn, now we're up with the little ones.
  • LO is 3 weeks today and all day and night for last 48 hours he's fussing to be fed every 2 hours. And its taking almost an hour after to get him settled for a quick nap. Then up to feed again. Once or twice we've done a 2 hour nap during the day.. Hope this passes soon too..

  • As much as it is hard when it feels like all they do is eat/pee/poop/cry/repeat...I would KILL for a 5 hour stretch followed by a 3-4 hour stretch. The longest (and rarest) stretch we have gotten from DD (3 weeks) is 3 hours, and it isn't actually a true 3 hours, it is "close to".

    This. I would GLADLY trade one hour of cluster feeding for a 5 and 3-4 hour stretch of sleep!!

    ^^ what she said. Mine cluster feeds in the late evening so putting here down to bed at night is a STRUGGLE. And she wakes every couple hrs.
