How do you socialise at night when you rock/feed to sleep?
Hi all,
DS is fed/rocked to sleep each night after a 30 min wind down period in his room . I am the only one that has ever put him to bed (even DH has never put him to bed).
This makes it very difficult for me to attend any evening social events - eg I've had to miss portions of wedding receptions etc to go home and put him to sleep and other times I've just decided to miss dinners etc as its all too difficult with DS's sleeping....
Its even a bit awkward at times to have people at our house as I need to 'disappear' for 30-40mins (or more) to go put DS to bed. I'm always very self conscience of this and am paranoid that people are judging me (thinking I'm a big softy etc - as I know my mother does).
I'm just wondering how other 'comforted sleeping' advocate parents get out and about at night? Is it possible???:dunno:
