I have fallen into attachment -type parenting with ds3 (3 months) and am enjoying wearing him in a wrap/ co-sleeping/ bf on demand but would love an evening out at some point - or just an evening with DH where we don't have DS in a sling.
I will not let him cry (partly because I was unable to hold him for the first week as he was in NICU with respiratory distress syndrome) and partly because I have never let any of them. I have two other boys (3 + 5) who were ap to differing extents and are wonderful sleepers (co-slept with DS2 for 6 months) but they always would be fed to sleep in the evenings.
Please reassure me I won't be carrying a 7 year old in a sling out to dinner in a restaurant. Any tips hugely welcome!
