Thanks Ali x
Can your DH do all the mornings for a week or so just while you get him out of the BF habit? Maybe he could even go back to sleep after half hour when the moment has passed if you get super early mornings?
I daren't even ask DP to do morning for a week although it has crossed my mind, he's such a bear in the mornings! Going back to bed after the moment has passed is a good idea tho, will put the idea to him carefully
Recently ds has started sleeping completely through so now is the time to try this, but I'm still in denial because WU is 6\6.30 whereas we used to have a NW between 4 and 5 and then sleep till 7/8. Boob can sometimes get us another 45mins to an hour of sleep (tho more rarely these days), so its a hard one to resist. So I BF in the hope of some extra sleep. We are staying with a friend over christmas, so will be all sleeping the same bed, I just know it'll be hard to resist the possibilities of keeping him quiet and getting more sleep! Its my prop!
I really don't think he's getting anything except comfort now anyway, he isn't swallowing very often and he pops off and asks for milk, has a drink and then wants more boob! He rarely asks for it during the day and its generally because he's thirsty so he's happy with a drink instead. This is what has made me feel its the right time, that and the thought of partaking in some christmas and new year cheer
