tbh, I also find it very important that they have alone time in order to learn how to entertain themselves!
I do it with Juleika as often as possible, atm unfortenuately not possible at all as she has a spurt!
what I find wrong is forcing them to be alone although they need to be picked, only 'cos it's kind of their time now to be alone!
but to me, it doesn't sound like you would pratice it this way!
me, as well, had to hear so much already about how I have to treat my baby and how not!
I can't stand it anymore and just don't listen anymore, sind friendships broke due to this already!
I was also really down and hurt, when my friends who don't even have children came and wanted to tell me how I have to treat my baby!
I can understand you totally
