[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I almost stopped reading at “my husband has postpartum depression” because no he does not. Your husband didn’t experience pregnancy and does not have a hormonal imbalance. What bullshit. He’s just a dude struggling with parenting or regular depression like the rest of us.

Anyway, I have a seven month old who still won’t fall asleep independently and whose crib is still in our room. We also sleep in separate bedrooms because we do shifts to deal with our terrible sleeper. It’s horrible but you aren’t alone.[/quote]

This. 
Your husband is making a lot of demands.

Listen to your gut and do what feels right for you. I co-slept with my older DC and he slept so much better when in bed with me. I was also feeding to sleep. When I wanted to stop that I stopped nursing him to sleep in the middle of the night, instead I woke up with him, and held him in my arms, so he wasn't abandoned crying all by himself.  It took me 3 or 4 nights to night wean and get him sleeping through the night.

Good luck[/quote]
