Attachment Parenting

Bedsharing advice please!

I know I'm not an attatchment parenter, but I do bedshare, and have a little problem, my son won't sleep in bed unless both of us are in bed. This was fine until my husbands work schedule changed so that he's not home until after midnight. The only way he'll sleep is if I'm nursing him in the glider... But I really would like to get us back into my bed at a regular time. He sleeps between me and the wall, so it's not like he wants to cuddle with daddy. He can just tell that someone is missing. Does anyone have any advice? Or am I just kinda screwed?

  • I don't have any advice for you. I'm actually in a similar situation and would love to hear what others have to say :)

  • Can you side-lying nurse until he falls asleep and maybe have a body pillow behind him? You could get rid of the body pillow once he falls asleep. Just a thought.

    Otherwise I think he would eventually get used to it if you keep trying. Everything is a phase!
