Ugh these night feeds! We eat, spitup, scream and repeat. I hate reflux. I also apparently have no way to soothe my child off the boob. Swaddling, swaying, sushing/white noise app and sucking a paci don't stop the absolute hysterics. Then I finally suck up her bad latch so she'll settle to sleep at the boob only to squirm herself awake on me to scream again. I prefer not to start my days at 2:30AM. Been up two hours child. Settle to sleep.

A woke up crying at 3 for her midnight snack. 50 mls later, she's out like a rock. It's barely half of her normal amount. Not worth getting up for...except she'll cry until she gets it. And a full 8 hours (which we've not gone) is a long time with no food.
Also I sneezed and scared her so bad, I thought she was going to barf.
I am so tired of waking up drenched in sweat. I wear a minimal amount of clothing to bed and have only a sheet and light blanket on my bed. Ceiling fan is running almost top speed...idk what else I can do
Is everything 100% cotton? Sheets, all clothing items (including underwear), etc. I used to get night sweats while on my period but that helped. Oh, also avoiding sugars/simple carbs in the few hours before getting in bed.

You mean the handful of peanut butter m&ms isn't a good idea right before bed? Idk if I can give that up! Yes everything else is cotton...I think it's just the hormones. House is set at 72...it'll regulate eventually. I hope.
@piedpiper07 I'm sorry about the reflux our only problem here is extreme gas issues or colic I guess. I finally got it all out (I think) by pushing her legs up against her tummy. But then she was so pissed that she screamed even louder. I couldn't imagine dealing with reflux too! I'd almost think she has it but she rarely spits up.
Update: my SO rocked her for 2 (TWO!!!) mins as he was getting ready for work & now she is out. Why does she refuse to sleep for me?!?!
