Hello,

While we were waiting for trip 2, I read books on attachment and even induced lactation in order to help the attachment and sleep with our son and breastfeed him. When we picked him up I soon saw he was very busy and had lots of teeth so he gets breast milk through the bottle. In preparation we also bought an Arms reach co-sleeper, but after spending a week in the same room with us, he didn't and wouldn't go to sleep unless we were laying down too. Once we got home he took to his own crib in his own room right away! He sleeps through the night!

Maddox started daycare today as I go back to work tomorrow. We aren't sure if it will work out or not, too early to decide but I was wondering if I should try and start sleeping with him to form more of an attachment to make up for the time at daycare which will only be 2 days one week, 3 the next.

My question is, for those Mommy's and Daddy's that do this, how do you do it? Maddox goes to bed at 7:00, there is no way I can go to bed that early, also I wouldn't want to leave him in the co-sleeper unattended as he walks and runs and jumps now!

Any suggestions?

We already get good holding time in, he loves it!
