DS is 7.5 months. He has never been a great sleeper and feeds to sleep for every nap and overnight. I have left him for just a handful of evenings and the last two times he got very distressed. This was over a month ago so things may have changed but his sleep overall is worse at the moment.
I need to work outside the home one evening this week and a couple of evenings a week from October. This week I won’t be too late (8.30/9 - bed time is between 8 and 9). From October I will occasionally be later (9.30/10).
I have been back at work working part-time for a while now and DS is very happy with DH while I’m gone. DH is a very hands on dad. It’s just the evenings they find hard. I work from home a lot so most times can be home to help DS nap. DH has managed to get DS to nap the last couple of times I haven’t been home.
Is there anything I can say to help DH other than that he needs to find his own way to settle him? Do I need to end the feeding to sleep somehow?
