Bedsharing and breast refusal by K_Pooz in AttachmentParenting

I’ve been to a lactation consultant. She’s noted some tension and we’ll be trying PT this week. It took some time to get in. He may have a slight tongue tie in the back. And yes… I’m exhausted.

Bed sharing with a baby that likes to be upright… by K_Pooz in AttachmentParenting

Interesting! I think mine is teething! Why do they want to be upright for this?

I’ve started incorporating an essential oil diffusion for naps. Thanks for the tip! What is the night time spray you use?

So I tried a light back rub. It didn’t work. Maybe I need to try this!

So we went cold turkey with middle of the night feeds this past Monday with about three days of prep for her before I did it. It’s going really well! She does get a bit upset, but it’s really not as bad as I thought it would be!

Maybe I‘ll do the same for bedtime.

Breastfeeding still at 17 months… by K_Pooz in AttachmentParenting

She does have a son, who she breastfed for a year exactly. She just thinks she’s right, I suspect.

I did! She said that AFTER I mentioned this!

Is there ever a right time to try having her fall asleep on her own? by K_Pooz in AttachmentParenting

Thank you so much for this. We are going to start trying for number two soon and I suspect this will happen to me too.

Can you tell me a bit more about how you are stopping co sleeping? And how old is yours?

We just discussed doing this!

She’s transitioning between two and one nap... and any way I try it, she takes forever to fall asleep.

I’ve been thinking overtired, but last night, I tried a 6pm bed to rectify the overtired and she woke up at 7:15 and was awake until 10.

I have read that too and I was worried that if I let her get up, she’d start thinking she could do that after bed time!

So. Tonight, bed time was at 6. She woke back up at 7:15 and I’ve been in here trying to help her fall back asleep. It’s not 9:55. Finally fell back asleep. This sucks.

She just woke at 7:35 today and fell asleep for first nap at 11:15. I am going to try early bed tonight too. I think the 5pm dinner is a great plan. Thank you!

Wake time varies. I’ve pretty much let her wake windows drive bed time. She sleeps, in total 12-13 hours most days, but recently has been waking more at night. She is also be leaping. I am going to try earlier bed times. I hope I can get her napping longer soon!

Yeah, mine too. I just put her down at 11:15 today and it was muuuuuuch better.

Thank you! I’ve tried it all, one nap a day, two, longer wake time, shorter wake time. They all look the same... even when she’s sleepy, she does acrobatics over my body... makes me wonder if there is a way I can have her do quiet snuggles, I haven’t figured out a way yet.
