Newborn cluster feeding colostrum 😭
Anyone else in this impossible spot? My almost 1 day old has been on the boob since we came back from the hospital this evening, I haven't slept in 2 days and I forgot how hard this is 😭 I don't know how much longer I can just stay awake with him on the boob, I've already had 2 meltdowns 😭
12 week and night feeds
I see so many posts on here regarding babies of a similar age sleeping through the night. My little one currently still does 2 night feeds.
