Cosleeping and eating all night
My 8 month old wakes frequently many times through out the night and the only way she goes back to sleep is to drink breastmilk. Shes always been this way. Shes 8 months and 25 pounds. Any advice ?!

Put her in her own bed?
This is normal from my point of view
Yes this sounds very normal. My baby started waking and nursing less when she was fully eating a lot more solids at 12 months… but would still want to nurse every 2-3 hours.

Try to feed as soon as she wakes up. Usually with cosleeping they correlate feeding with sleeping since they're used to it. Could be just feeding to soothe. Could be cluster feeding going through a developmental phase. My advice, if you're not wanting to cosleep is sleep training and putting LO in crib. I sleep trained at 6mo and she sleeps through the night since then. She's almost 2 now. Co sleeping, wean her off so many feeds but letting her feed for a little bit and taking her off in a few minutes if she's sleepy enough, 'dream feed'
