My dd is coming up for 6mths and is my world. We've co slept from birth as she hated her moses basket and DH and I couldn't bear to hear her cry. So she came in with us, first sleeping on my chest and now starfish in the middle of the bed. She's always fed to sleep and no amount of rocking or shhh'ing has ever worked. We're at the stage where, our backs are killing us, I'm going back to work in 6 weeks and we feel we need our bed back!
I've managed to get her to nap in her cot (which is in our room by my side) twice but no luck at bedtime. I have to feed and then wait until she's quite deeply asleep then try to manoeuvre her into her cot.
I really don't want to leave her to cry, but nursery will not be able to bf her to sleep and she's going to need a nap while she's there.
Has anyone got any ideas or tips to make the transition easier?
Thanks
