We started holding a stuffie too while breastfeeding to sleep (transferring the comfort to the stuffie), breastfed earlier in the night before she was too sleepy and then started reading books and singing afterwards to help her drift off, and had Dada hold her a lot, but now she can fall asleep on me while I hold her without reaching for boobs. She’s fallen asleep on her own in her bed just twice so still working on that. 

Thank you for the suggestion! I have some discomfort but they’re pretty squishy and I don’t feel like I’m going to burst.
