We need help. 6 month old used to sleep 6-7 hour stretches and now we are lucky if we get a 3-5 hour stretch where I don't need to replace paci or pick up for a few minutes.
Day schedule is a hot mess thanks to siblings and running around. Most days she nurses every 2-2.5 hours. Rarely 3 and that's if I'm not home. The other day it was literally every 2 hours. Solids 2-3x a day.
Bedtime routine is solid although half the time he goes down awake, the other half falls asleep nursing.
7-8 bedtime, 9-10pm dreamfeed, 1am replace paci,2-4am crapshoot sometimes sleeping, sometimes fussing and we will pay or shush or have to pick upand she's immediately asleep in our arms, we wait then put her down again. Around 4-5am nurse it sometimes DH gives her 2-3oz of milk, then up at 6-6:30 to nurse again
This wasn't sustainable as a newborn. It's definitely not sustainable now.
Is any of this normal? We're just wishful thinking that it can be something different
