Attachment parenting

Ka

Is anyone practicing this? I am currently, but not by choice! 😅 it’s just what this little girl requires. I’m worried I’m instilling bad habits that will be hard to break.

We co-sleep, which is something I NEVER thought I’d do. She’ll wake the minute she’s not touching me. She nurses to sleep and rarely falls asleep any other way. She also needs to be held for her nap time or she won’t stay asleep longer than 15 min, and she’s so little she needs good rest so I just hold her.

I have a carrier and a wrap that she’s sometimes okay with, it’s hit or miss for nap time. She’ll sit in her swing will awake for a good 10 min before she decides she hates it, same with her play mat.

She also has a major preference for mom over dad, she’ll happily play with dad but after 20-30 min she’ll fuss until I hold her again.

I’m not sure if I’m looking for advice or just solidarity haha 🙃 my first was not anything like her.
