Sleep training

What are your experiences with sleep training? My 5 month baby sleeps on the bed with me and my husband sleeps in another room. My baby recently wakes up every hour to latch (from 2-3hours before) and it’s really affecting me. I’m exhausted.

You can actually pump n bottle feed at night. Ask your hub to help on certain days if u feel very exhausted. I also co sleeping back then, baby sleeps on bed, my hub on the floor with mattress haha. But I also mixed feed. Bf n bottle feed. If you wish to wean off by latching when hit Eg 1yo. It’s also easier u - baby will get use to bottle feed n won’t depend on latching all the time. (Depends on you) . Eg Some mummies latch in the day , bottle feed at night. Or another way round. if you are putting lo to school. Also same. some mummies may find it easier.. * if you decided lo join CC at later age Eg 18 months , you can do the same also * Some babies might reject bf. Some still bf till baby is 2-3yo.
