Absolutely enjoy as number 1. I have a 15yo and a 13yo and If you asked me how I'd parent now, I know Id let my babies sleep in a sling more, I'd worry more about getting me eldest out and about and less about sleeping for the baby as honestly it's such a small part of life. Sadly we live in a society that measures tangibles, a baby sleeping through the night is a good thing yes...but in hindsight I'm glad I got so many curved balls from my boys (horrible sleepers for different reasons) as It's really taught me to look at a bigger picture.
One thing I realised, which may or may not be true for others) is often we hide our anxiety in 'it will be easier when...,' What can I do to make it how I need it rather than looking at it and saying, so he/she isn't going sleep, how do I change my mindset.
We live in a society that is focused on 'tick a box' where as I think being a parent it's more about having plans 1-10. So toddler won't put shoes on/baby won't catnap, how can I make them, it becomes, is it a safety issue or can they go bare foot/ baby is less upset if I let them suckle so I will, ok toddler eats toast for dinner and so do I, but tomorrow is another day, kind of stuff.
