[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think many, if not most of us, have been where you are now. MY baby was going to co-sleep and I was going to nurse laying on my side and have a lovely sleep every night. Yeah, right. My boobs were bigger than my child's head, and I was constantly afraid I would crush her by rolling over so co-sleeping and side-nursing were out immediately. I also wasn't going to do CIO-how cruel!! Fast forward to a cracked-out mom last september who was reading Ferber religiously (and thank God it worked!!). All last summer is kind of a blur of sleeplessness, tears, and some pretty heavy despair/anxiety. This summer is a dream come true, now that I've just decided to NOT have expectations, NOT freak out of stuff I can't control, and NOT feel inferior when I read threads like "if you don't eat processed food...". Go on with your swing-buying, formula-feeding, giant-strollering self![/quote]
