Hi Ladies and Merry Christmas to you all!
I have done the wrong thing and need some advice on how to undo it.
When Junior goes to bed at 7pm he feeds from me and falls asleep and i put him in his cot bad i know, but it is the only way he will go to sleep as iv'e done it from day 1.
So last night i fed him like usuall 45 mins in total and he didn't fall asleep so i put him in his crib wide awake and said to o/h hes not falling asleep on me feeding, after 2 and a half hours of him screaming, me picking him up to settle him and putting him down when he was settled, then doing it about 100 times (stubbon like me) he fell asleep on me but not feeding.
Also he wont sleep in the day unless he falls asleep on me yes done this from day 1 as he was feeding all the time and everytime he cried he was passed to me cos "he needed feeding" so today i say no falling asleep on me, he has just fell asleep on me but not feeding again.
Help me please ladies i know it's my fault but he was totally heartbroken last night not falling asleep on mymmy and it was hard not to just give into him seeing him cry his heart out. Tonight will be the same!
What can i do as he cant fall asleep on me at all my other 2 were bottle fed and good sleepers so i've never had to do this before! Also he wont touch a bottle he would rather starve.
