mommies who nurse your baby to sleep

[mushi]

hi, i nursed my elder son to sleep everytime i breast fed him i.e whenever he was sleepy and i soon replaced the breast with a bottle which was taken to immediately....replaceing the bottle was a little difficult....i started by replacing milk with water and then the story telling sessions, rocking, etc started....the way i see it u have to go thru some amount of effort either at the beginning or at the end....so just relax and do what u find most convenient at this stage...think about the next stage when it comes and trust me there is always a way out...after all u don;t see 10 -year olds roaming around with pacifiers or bottles!

it is usuall advised NOT to nurse your baby to sleep b/c then he/she will not learn how to put themselves to sleep later. This might also lead to difficulties weaning off the breast. Try keeping him/her awake during a feed and if they cry give them a dummy.
