How to move away from feeding to sleep?

Question

Baby only falls asleep for me. If partner tries then she will become wide awake and want to play. I think I want to wean off BF soon but not sure how to get her to sleep any other way?!

Answer

I’m somewhat in the same situation but I followed some of the advice from the ladies here and it’s been working (not 100% but getting there). For the past week I’ve fed him about 30 mins before bed in the living room instead of the bedroom. Then move on to pijama and teeth brushing then a book. Then at 7:20ish just before bed, I would hold him for a few minutes with our arms around each other and say goodnight. Put him down and leave the room. Sometimes he cries for like 2 mins, other times not at all.

Answer

Also in a similar situation. My little one is EBF and I'm in the stages of weaning and it has been difficult. So if you find any help let me know!
