Gotta love all of those books, the ones that make you think that you are a bad parent if your child doesn't fall asleep on his own the second you put him in his crib by 4 months old
Ty gets a bottle at night and then is cuddled to sleep. I tried a few times to put him in his crib awake, but he cries. For naps, I nurse him to sleep then hold him while he naps. Sure, I don't get much done around the house, but the time will come soon enough when he doesn't want mommy to cuddle him to pieces anymore so I want to enjoy this time while I can.
Last week Ty wasn't feeling well, and he got very clingy to me. So he has been co-sleeping with us since then. We are planning on putting him back in the crib, although I know it is going to be a rough transition back. I will probably have a couple of rough nights.
Good to know that Hannah goes to her crib alone so well
And I know what you mean by saying they need you less and less.....it just seems like they are already growing up so fast, it won't be long before they are off to college!
So let's just enjoy them wanting to cuddle with mom while they still want to
