[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I admit that co-sleeping is about me. My son can sleep on his own and he has. I wasn’t able to breastfeed and wanted that close bond tahr I didn’t through breastfeeding. My husband has been very supportive and understanding. He has said many times lately we need to move our son to his own room if we want to have a second child. He is not going to feel like a speak donor. He’s very affectionate and loves to cuddle. He has not been getting that.

I’ve been afraid to leave my son in my bed alone so I go to bed with him at 8 when he does. That doesn’t leave much time with my husband. He said he does not want a second child if this will happen again.

I’m going to move our son into his bed tonight. It’s right next door to ours. I realize I have been selfish. We have only been together for 3 years and we are older ( 38 and 40) which is why we want to try for a second child now. [/quote]

Your husband is being open honest about his feelings - and you are being open and honest about your feelings on this forum. Parenting is very hard. Parenting in a quarantine is even harder.  It sounds like some virtual family therapy would be a good thing for everyone to kind of talk about the conflict from all sides without judgment. Resentment kills relationships. Communication, especially with a neutral party, builds up relationships. [/quote]
