Most of the time LO is not quite asleep and so far it must be working because she usually stays in bed for 8-10 hours. I heart our night nursing :-) sarac on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

Not always to sleep, but nursing around naptime and bedtime is the nursing that I'm actively supporting right now. All others I'm working on phasing out. prettylizy on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

I usually nurse her within an hour of bedtime depending on what were doing. I don't have to nurse her to sleep, and I don't have to nurse her right before she gets put down.

Hubs actually often does a top off bottle right after we nurse. I've known from the time she was born that when she is seven months old she will be spending the night with my bro and sis in law while hubs and I are at a wedding (that my husband is in) so I've been trying to be conscious about her being able to go to sleep without the boob. cvbee on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

That used to be a bottle-feeding attempt, which would just make baby mad. Now he just does the whole bedtime routine but instead of nurse-to-sleep, baby watches tv to get to sleep. I am relieved that it works. Mrs. Pen on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

Originally it was nursing to sleep until we sleep trained at 6 months. But he still is nursed right before getting put into his crib (awake). ohapostrophe on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

He just last week decided we were done nursing so now we rock and sing like we always did, just without the boob :) BeachMama on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

But she will also take a bottle. She's definitely come to expect something before bed. Weagle on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

We'll keep doing it as long as it works! And because I love it :) autumnlove on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

Now, at 10 months I only nurse him if we are away from home and I can't or don't want to pump. He NEVER falls asleep at the boob anymore! :( brownie on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

I wish I could just nurse her before bed, but nursing to sleep is her preference:) Rainbow Sprinkles on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

She's not usually asleep when I put her down, but it's the last thing we do. It's a life saver when traveling too. hilsy85 on "Do you nurse your lo before bed?

It doesn't put her to sleep, it just makes her happy. So, I'm just letting it become a pattern. She never used to nurse before bed so, this is new. Do you nurse your baby before bed? Have you don't this since they were born?
