Please Help! NOW!
"Beth" wrote in message ... "Sophie" wrote in message ... I used to put my kids in the Bjorn by myself all the time. Put the Bjorn on the bed or couch, put the baby it in, lean right down, and slip it on. It's not that hard. That's also the way to get the baby out of the carrier: lay her down and slither out of the harness yourself. Beth It's interesting hat you can do on your own when you have to - lol. |

Morgan just won't let me put her down. She wants to be on me all the time. She eats and falls asleep. Then, when I put her down she wails. I've tried just about everything. I'm at my wits end. Please help!! By the way, she also doesn't allow me to just hold her. She wants to nurse if I hold her in my arms. I'm hoping this changes with the wrap and carrier. ~Carol Ann Mom to Morgan born 3.24.04 http://tinyurl.com/299ot ---Pictures of Morgan Hi Carol, I can totally sympathise with you because I'm going through more or less the same things except that things have improved slightly for me. My baby is born two weeks earlier than yours. Right now, Ryan allows me to hold him a little longer before he starts wanting to nurse. As mentioned in some earlier posts as well, I try to nurse him to sleep and I hold him for about 10-15 minutes or so, just so that he enters deep sleep and then I try to set him down. If he wakes, I try to pat his bum or put a comforting hand around him to prevent him from waking himself up by flinging his arms around. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's so much easier for me now that I nursed reclined, with him on top of me, my arm around him supported by pillow or bolster. I get a little snooze while he gets his too. At times, I just give up trying to move him. It used to be that he sits only for a short while in his bouncy chair (FisherPrice Kick N Play) before he starts fussing. Now he sits there a lot longer and I'm able to talk, play and read to him with him seated in his chair. I would love to hold him more often but he'll root and demand to be nursed. I just we just have to hang in there and hopefully things will get better. Dory Mummy to Ryan, born 8th Mar 2004 |
