Hey all,
I breastfeed and part cosleep with my 8month old as it just felt right for us but am unsure if we have got into bad habits.
At the moment I boob him to sleep at 6pm he sometimes transfers into cot, sometimes not. He will wake for a feed at 9/10pm then sleep until 2/3am He is unsettled from this point on. This is when I usually climb into bed with him and feed him continuously to keep him asleep. He is usually leaping all over me by 4am/5am.
Naps do not happen unless I feed him and lie down with him or he is in the pram or car.
I am due to return to work next year so need to improve his sleep patterns before then or we will both feel very ropey.
I am hoping that one of you will have the secret to 8 hour undisturbed sleep :)
