Yikes!! Ok my husband took over my toddler’s nighttime routine and would go in when he woke up in the middle of the night crying for me. Definitely helped with the weaning process and actually my son (mostly) stopped waking up during the night! I vote let him take over the toddler’s sleep! I was out of town for a few days so I think that also helped the process! I was only 2 months pregnant though- so I’m guessing your toddler is a little more aware of the impending baby and changes! Good luck!
Please tell me I’m not alone.
I’m squeezed in the toddler bed nursing my 21 month old who will not wean from nighttime while crying about the fact that I’m 32 weeks and feel like it’s going to be impossible. My husbands helpful response: I’ll just do it all.
Since we know that isn’t actually helpful, I need you some real advice or calming words 🤣

I second the hubby take over bedtime idea. This is the only thing that worked for us - hubby took over bedtime for the first night and then we took turns after that but no breastfeeding at bedtime no matter what. When it wasn’t my turn, I stayed in the other room with the fan turned on, the door closed, and ear plugs in. I knew he was safe with daddy and I couldn’t stand to hear him crying. Good luck.

Yes I can’t imagine! And I definitely stayed awake the WHOLE time it took my husband to get him back to sleep- as I knew I could do it a million times faster 🤣 maybe you can do a sleep over with friends/family? Good luck mama!

Thank you!!! Great idea. I’m emotional so it’s hard to hear her cry for me for long periods of time.
