Benji was a good sleeper, but had a cardiac operation at 3 months of age.
Failure to gain weight meant his mum was advised to breast feed him all through the night.
This got them into a terrible rut & now mum currently co-sleeps with Benji latched on most (literally most) of the night, which is really taking it's toll on her, and her relationships.
Mum has also resorted to driving Benji around in the car to get him to sleep. (This is not uncommon).
Mum has had appointments since to say that Benji's heart is doing well, but he will need further procedures next year, and a valve replacement too at some point.
A recent dietician appointment told mum that Benji is doing well enough now with feeding and his weight gain, to begin sleep training. A sleep plan for the two of them is currently being produced.
It is time to get Bethany some help.
To get her life back to where it should be.
That mummy needs some sleep!
