This is so helpful. Thanks for sharing! We currently do the unlimited TV on travel/sick days too and are having a similar experience. Going to try your new approach!

I’m so sorry. That has to be hard for all of you. I’m sure you have already tried this but maybe a faster flowing nipple on the bottle (for an older baby) would help approximate the boob given that you have oversupply?

This is so hard. Solidarity. I second those saying please feel free to supplement with formula! There are amazing high quality formulas out there and like others are saying, supplementing actually benefited my breastfeeding relationship with all three of my kids. And contrary to what the breastfeeding mafia will have you believe, it did not impact my supply in the slightest. Babies drink a lot more from bottles/with caregivers and you want them to have all the milk they need to keep him happy! Supplementing during the day might solve your night waking problem too. Sleep training is great but it’s probably more important to make sure his weight is in track before doing so. Wishing you all the best and please know that no matter what, you WILL sleep through the night! The day will come I promise!
