PLEASE can someone who has been through this help me!
My little boy is 16 months old.
I have always BF him to sleep. He's always found such comfort and it's worked for both of us. I feel like I've come to the end of my BF journey though. I love to see how much comfort it brings him, esp if he's upset or poorly, but I can't go on like this anymore. I need him to start sleeping through or going down to sleep in less then an hour! I feel like I've done my time!
I've tried gradual retreat, pick up put down but nothing works. He has very bad seperation anxiety from me so I will NEVER leave him to cry it out.
Everytime I put him down he is hysterical and he never calms... ever. I wait until he is drowsy and unlatch and he wakes immediately and screams. I don't know where to begin.
Please if anyone has any advice or has been through this please help me!
I know it will get harder before it gets better but I just don't know where to begin :(
Normally he gets up 2 times per night and I feed him (he generally just sucks for comfort). He won't take a dummy strangely.
Thank you!
