I have just started to read the Continuum Concept by Jean Liedloff- it is really challenging my whole thinking about bringing up children! I have one DS who has just turned 2 and another baby due next Feb. I had already been considering a different approach with the second as DS went into his own room very early (3 weeks old) but it made the bf much harder. So I was trying to find out more about co-sleeping etc, to convince my DH. However came across this book and it seems a totally different approach to parenting. It really resonates with my instincts actually but has anyone tried the whole 'in-arms' thing until crawling? Is it really possible when we don't live in the jungle? Do you give up the car? Also feeling guilty about the missed opportunity with DS...Liedoloff suggest bring a toddler into the bed for a while so they can have the same opportunity if they missed out as a baby- has anyone else tried this, does it make a difference or is it too late to try? Help I need to talk to others who at least understand this concept as many of my friend just would think I am mad I think.
