Ongoing sleep struggles

My son co sleeps with me and has done for a while now as it was initially helping reduce night wakes. However we are now waking up pretty much hourly and only accepting feeding back to sleep. I’m so exhausted and worn out and am struggling as co sleeping was my saviour and now that isn’t even working and I can’t imagine having the energy to try anything other than feeding back to sleep as it works so quickly but I’m worried that’s the problem at this point 😭

I totally feel you! I thought I would be weaning by now but little one wants to feed to sleep at night and likes ti resettle with boob. We co sleep too and have a similar situation where it's always helped the sleep but now she's regressed a bit and I'm so tired! I've used habit stacking techniques (see lyndsey hook way) and that has helped me find other ways to settle back to sleep but sometimes I'm too tired to try other methods! Really considering putting her in her own sleep space but I'm also overwhelmed at the possibility of having less sleep by having to go between rooms to resettle 😅😅

@Sally yes feel the exact same!! Keep thinking about trying his own room but like you say terrified for the thought of walking back and forth and getting even less sleep it’s so hard 🥲
