that sounds like my son. he was mostly in my bed and his bassinet. i had to ease him into sleeping by himself in his crib. its not a bad thing to lay with the baby to take a mommy nap.

@acb0391, I have been told that too. but he has only been in his crib once, and the rest of the times his bassinet or my bed

@anuheas.mommy, same here I wouldn't dare try to do it any sooner or I'll be up an extra 30 mins just because I tried to soon lol

i usually will put my son down first and then wait a few min then go in there and take a nap with him while hes in his crib. i also sometimes cuddle with him to take a nap. ive always been told to take a nap when the baby does.

I'm lucky if I can get her in her bassinet. she has to be asleep in my arms for at least an 30 min for me to put her in it. @shelbilynne

@wyatts_mommy_0106, so does my son that's why I've only let it happen once, and that is why I don't like my mom watching him because she always tells me I'll just let him cry in another room. that makes me so mad.

@des_a_rayy so do i except while I'm working he gets it in a bottle. (:

@kmally lol okay thank you. and I will listen to their advice, except I'm the only one who has breastfed on my moms side of the family. my aunt was unable to her milk didn't come in and my mom chose not too. when it comes to breastfeeding I ask my aunt on my dads side she breastfed both her children.

@anuheas.mommy I can't let him cry either. he usually sleeps in my arms or in my bed. I don't co sleep every night we do put him in a basinet next to our bed but he usually ends up in bed with us by morning.

I would say do what you think is best. I hate when the in laws and my mom tell me to put her in the crib. I co sleep and when she naps she just sleeps in my arms. I tried to let her cry and it broke my heart to hear her crying. I didn't want her to think she couldn't rely on me to pick her up if she was upset.

EBF is exclusively breast feed ;) sounds like you're doing what's right for you and babe. Don't be afraid to stand up for what works for you! You're doing great! <3

I exclusively breast feed :)

do what feels right to you I have never believed in the CIO method my son don't go for it he just works himself up more

@aek91, I co sleep sometimes not always but when I feed him him and we nap in bed he sleeps for at least 2 hours especially if I am laying with him. but if I go off to do something else he will wake up within a half hour as well.

@kmally see and I've heard that about the CIO method and I honestly hate it. I have only done it once and that was because my mom was there and refused to let me go pick him up but as soon as she left I picked him up (: I probably won't let him CIO I hate letting him cry for even a few minutes.

@des_a_rayy what is EBF?

Thank you all for the advice, I probably won't try it I can't do that to my baby.

I EBF and always co slept and layed with while BF for naps. Do what you feel is best, your his mom and what you feel is right.

My guy always napped on me. (We breastfed also). CIO is proven to be detrimental to their emotional health and I could never do it. And what's the point of letting baby cry for 2 hours?! I believe in my baby's cries...especially under 10 months if they're crying they're crying for a reason (even if that reason is they just want to be close to their mother). Do what feels right for you mama. A lot of "advice" that I got went right out the window 😂

my son has co slept with me since he was born I let him nap on my bed I would just feed him laying on my side & him facing me & when I knew he was sleeping or he let go of my nipple I would slowly move away but he would only nap for 30 minutes at a time
