Posted @withrepost • @mrsmombastic Society needs to accept infant sleep development in the same way that it accepts babies learning how to walk... They might take a step, and then not take a step for another couple of days. They might take a step and then fall and hurt themselves. They might take a few steps and then go back to crawling again for a while. They might have never taken a step in their life, and then one day just get up and start walking.... But one things for sure, they will make a little bit of progress, and then go backwards again at some point. Now think of sleep development as being the same. With walking, we don’t question why they have decided to stop trying to take steps for a few days. We just accept it. And if they fall and hurt themselves, we comfort them. Because we can visibly see that they are in pain. When it comes to nighttime..... Teething, hurts. Lying in the same position unable to move, is confining. Feeling unwell, is unpleasant. Being too hot, is uncomfortable. Nightmares, are scary. And trying to make sense of the world around, is daunting. Knowing this, helps us understand a little better that there must be an impact on our children’s sleep patterns. We cannot predict how they feel, or how much they might need us on any given night. Sometimes they wake for nothing more than just a hug. And that doesn’t make it easier. It doesn’t make us any less tired. But it does help us understand that it is not us that is doing something wrong. It’s just how it is. #baby #attachmentparenting #attachmentparent #crunchymama #crunchymamas #staystrong #newmomlife #mumlife #momlife #mumblogger #mumbloggersuk #responsiveparenting (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/responsive_parenting/p/BvMBOqHHjri/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kmjmsqdbnef6

Still cosleeping with this little dude. Once a week I ask him if he's ready to sleep in his bed in his room, "No, I want to sleep with mommy." Some nights I sleep with toes digging in my side. Some nights I sleep with fingers in my eyes. And he can be a bit of a pillow hog. But I'm enjoying every piece of moment because time is flying. Riley goes to sleep on his own, but tonight he asked for "lullabies" and to hold my hand. How could I tell the precious face, "no"? #alliswell #cosleeping #attachmentparent #goodnight
