LO won’t sleep

Have you changed her before feeding? Making sure she’s not gassy either. Mine is 6 weeks old and is the same. I usually keep her up 10-20 minutes after feeding and then rock her in my arms and she’ll drift x

I know some people say you don’t need to burp a bf baby however I find when my little one starts fussing I burp her out her back on and she then falls asleep on me and then can usually move her from there x

This happens with me, she loves the comfort from the boob, that’s probably what it is with you. Does she settle once she’s on your boob again? Try a dummy if it continues, I didn’t want to give a dummy to my baby but I just couldn’t sit there all day and night with her stuck on my boob 😩

I could’ve written this myself! My LO won’t settle unless latched. The moment I put her down she’ll cry and cry. I was told by a midwife it was because she was using me to self soothe. The solution they gave me was a dummy however she now gags on the dummy and isn’t a fan 😩 I just rock her and pat her gently until she drifts or keep her on me so she can hear my heartbeat and eventually fall asleep. It’s a long process but it eventually works x

Here is my routine: I start by giving her a full feed from one breast, then I burp her. After she burps, I change her nappy and swaddle her. Next, I offer my other breast for a feed, which is usually shorter. I've noticed that if I don't swaddle her and put her in bed, her hands tend to move around too much, and she eventually wakes herself up.
