Hi, posted this in props with no response wondered if this was where I should have posted:
sorry if this has been explained elsewhere, have looked at the gentle removal plan and not sure it anwers my question.
Little one has always breast fed to sleep, I can take my nipple out of her mouth when she's getting sleepy and if stroke her nose/face she'll drop off. She will sleep for up to an hour on me but I often can't get her down in her bed - we have a hammock not a crib. Health visitor has advised me to let her cry to teach her to go to sleep on her own in her bed but I just can't do it. I don't know how to make the very sharp seeming transition from b'fing as a prop to EASY, as sh/pat does not pacify or calm her. We're stuck in a vicious cycle at the moment of being overtired as won't sleep during the day so I've been caving in just to get her some sleep.
Sorry if this is repeating from somewhere else - feel free to point my to existing threads.
Many Thanks - really would love some help.
