My little guy is 4 months old.. I used to be able to put him to bed awake and he would fall asleep. Over the past few weeks he will only fall asleep on the nipple then once he passes out I'll put him in his bed and he will sleep for about 15 min then wake up screaming... I will do this routine about 3-4 times then finally he will pass out and sleep the whole night. On the rare occasions he wakes up in the middle of the night he will suck his thumb and go back to sleep and in the morning he also will self sooth.. It's only at bedtime. My husband thinks he is too attached to my boob and that I need to stop giving it to him after his last feeding... I don't think there is anything wrong with comforting him... What are your experiences?

There's nothing wrong with comforting him, what baby is doing is completely normal (although, it's kinda annoying). Baby will need to learn how to go back to sleep on his own but he's still young. Do what you think is best. PS my 5 month old is going through the same thing. This is teaching them how to trust and be comforted. This is good for their development. Nurse on momma!

Can holding your newborn before and while they sleep create of habit of them needing to be held in order to fall and stay asleep? 😭 my son won't stay asleep unless I'm holding him. The minute I put him down he starts fidgeting and waking up.

imara219 @brianna_ then that's not bad. Mine screamed bloody murder for 10 mins and then stop when he
canaryv Yeah he rather play on his own lol but now that he's older it's harder to get
rmreed Not picking him up when he needs me would destroy me! I'm so glad we have room
