Asher (2 1/2) is truly the worlds worst sleeper. He will only nurse to sleep and wakes up for a snack every 1-2 hours. This has never gotten better since he was a baby (and we have tried it all!). He recently has given up his naps. Going to sleep is much easier but the rest of the night is horrible. He wakes up about an hour after he goes down and takes literally until about 3-4 a.m. to stop squirming and being so restless. I can not sleep at all during this time and he is totally attached to my breasts. He seems none the worse for wear in the morning.
I have tried telling him he can't nurse any more but he is a tough nut. He isn't really awake and just cries and kicks me. I just can't let him cry forever (both b/c I just can't and I can't wake up the whole household). The nursing dosen't seem to be soothing him so much anymore.
I never thought he could sleep any worse than before but he is and I am going insane.
Any thoughts?
