Has anyone successfully sleep trained using the baby whisperer method while breastfeeding?
How do you increase the amount she gets during the day if your not giving bottles and baby needs more food and therefore waking up at night? (Not sure that's the issue, but it might be)

I did the baby whisperer while nursing. The whole premise of the book is eat, activity, sleep. There's much less guesswork if the baby is tired or hungry if it's fussy. Because eating happens after a nap not vice versa.
(Sorry don't have time to elaborate right now)

12 hours in 12 weeks is much more into ounces of food, increasing the amount of food the baby gets throughout the baby's first 12 weeks of life.

They say you can increase the milk your baby gets by increasing the length of nursing. Personally that didn't work for me, cuz when my baby was done, he was DONE.

I've been doing EAS since baby was born..
Not sure what the 12 hours 12 weeks is. I don't remember reading that..
I feed and feed and feed..baby likes to suck.. maybe I should feed even longer?
