I cant rock my baby sleep anymore. While she is 3-5 months she is ok we rock her and sing to her to sleep. She is 9 month old now and not using pacifier. Every night I must need to latch her until sleep. Few times wake up in the midnight I need to latch her also. Keep waking up at night is not good for development too. I tried to rock her sleep but she will be fussy and need to latch. If my hubby rock her she will wake up and look for me even in the midnight. Too tiring! help!

My Son only stop middle of the night latching when I weaned him off at coming 2 years old.. it's a habit actually.. so it's quite hard to quit unless u wean off breastfeeding.. it doesn't matter if u feed him formula or bm or give pacifier as they won't take it if they won't take it

He's been given pacifier since back at home as the nanny insisted back then to shut him.. eventually I manage to stop him from using at abt 4 mths old as he kind of didn't want the pacifier as he has preference over latching too.. hard to see a breastfed baby liking pacifier imo.. Do note that even if u give pacifier once it drop out from his mouth he will cry n make sure u comfort him as well.. that's from my fren whom bottle fed n give pacifier so no matter what u need to wake up if he cries too..
