Aww Soph.I'm in the same boat.Gem falls asleep on the bottle and it really is messing with my head to.And the fact that she still takes 5 bottles a day which I'm to scared to cut one out!(argh the under eaters!)I've tried c/c and belive me like the others have said it causes more stress than ever.I hate it!!I got so distressed that Gem ended up co-sleeping with me sobbing!I'm now having the problem that Gem falls asleep then wakes up within the hour and cries for me.We just co-sleep now when she wakes....all 3(well 4 if you include bub in belly!) cosy in our squeeshy bed.I think as mothers we know whats best for our kids and you should just follow your heart.Your like me and worry to much about what others are doing .Must be first time mother syndrome!hehehe
