Stop co sleeping… and no don’t use tv in the middle of the night that doesn’t help sleep…seriously… Why are you nursing a toddler in the middle of the night anyway? If they were in their own bed they wouldn’t expect to be nursed back to sleep. My baby hasn’t nursed at night since maybe 4 months old. It isn’t necessary. Even times she has woken up at night if she doesn’t go back to sleep on her own I can rock her to sleep and she’s 11 months old. What you allow to happen continues to happen. IMO don’t sleep with your toddler don’t nurse at night. You may have a couple sleepless nights but your toddler can sleep in their own bed and not nurse and be fine. Then you can both get a good nights sleep every night if you just stick to it.

First off, the baby should be sleeping in their crib, and secondly if you give the baby a little drink put a little bit of water in a cup and take it to them in their room. I don’t see why your husband has to get up with you? You turning the tv on the baby is going to think it is time to get up. Break the tv habit, put a night light on. If the baby is teething use a teething ring, it may help.

RESPECT his wishes and simply sleep on the couch until your son is weaned. If I dont want to sleep on the couch then let the baby have your boob so he can fall back to sleep and not be watching a damn movie or show in the middle of the night. That’s a routine you dont want to start bc it will bite you in the ass when he is 5yrs old and suppose to be sleeping bc he is in school at that point.
I will never understand why people think a stay at home mom is the only one responsible for the child. Yes, dad works, but having a job does NOT exclude you from parenting when you’re at home. I’m so glad my sons father wasn’t like that when we were together. 
With that being said, you people are ignorant as fuck for attacking her for breastfeeding her toddler and for bed sharing. Where the child sleeps is none of your business and just because it isn’t for you doesn’t mean you’re better somebody else because it is for them.
I can’t believe I read this long arse whiney post,poor man needs his sleep kid should be in its own bed and why put the tv on in early hours that’s letting the child think it’s time to get up and play,if your going to be such a disturbance you and your child should co sleep on a single bed in another room or something be greatful your man’s out working to put the bills nd provide a roof over your head
I wouldn’t personally get into the habit of using screens as a distraction for anything or you’re going to create a new habit to break. Personally as a SAHM my husband does currently sleep in another room while my toddler sleeps with me so he isn’t disturbed. I do feel he needs his rest and it is my responsibility on work days. On weekends we need to share responsibility and he needs to allow me some time to myself to rest/recharge too. I can’t offer much support on weaning from breast feeding but my pediatrician said to wean night bottles cold turkey and the crying eventually stops because it isn’t about nutrition as much as it is comfort/routine.

Never let anyone guilt you into anything. I’m a stay at home mom too. He needs to understand that all aspects of parenting is a two person job. You work HARD too!
You have to able to function during the day just as much as Dad does. Speaking from experience, never let him tell you that his needs are more important than yours.

If you choose to go this route, I would try it over the weekend when he isn’t working ((pending he has a M-F job)) have him sleep in y’all’s room with the toddler and you sleep in another room until Sunday evening. Maybe suggest your husband sleep in another room the first two nights until you can ensure your toddler is weaned

I’m having the EXACT same issue. I’m a stay at home mom with an almost 2 year old who still wants to breastfeed and a husband who works and gets upset if he doesn’t get his sleep. My only suggestion would be try to get your toddler to sleep in his own room in a crib. That way you can just go in there and try to get him back to sleep so your husband doesn’t get upset. But yes he should still help out when he can because I agree just because we’re home all day doesn’t mean we get to sleep we have other things around the house to take care of.

I hate reading this and the male attitude towards stay at home mums and their poor sleep and their poor job.
Ask him to reverse the role for two days, you get a full nights sleep and spend 8 hours away from the baby both days, I can assure you he would change his attitude very quickly.
Going to work will still be hard but it’s something he has for himself without constant needs and interruptions from a child and household!
I work part time and my job is busy but I still feel like the days I’m at home there are so many more physical and emotional expectations of me and you don’t get coffee breaks

I’m really sorry that you feel this much pressure to do this by yourself. That’s a really shitty thing he’s expecting you to do and if that was my partner I’d be telling him to sleep on the sofa if he didn’t like it!
First of all, your child is BOTH of your responsibility, day or night. Just because you’re a “stay at home mum” does NOT mean you have to do this alone.
Just because he has a full time job does not mean his job as a dad can be dismissed - ESPECIALLY when you’re struggling with a million and one things aswell. It’s really not fair.
Second of all, I bow down to you for handling this. I do night feeds with my 2 month old but my partner insists I wake him if I need a break (he works full time also). If he ever told me to go in the living room so I didn’t wake up, I’d make sure I’d wake him up every bloody time so he understands how draining it is to do the night shift and still run a household and deal with kids all at the same time whilst running on little-no sleep.
I’m sorry to say it but your partner sounds really selfish for doing this to you. Why the HELL should you and your child be pushed out of bed just because you’re husband throws a strop about being woken? If he wants the full night sleep, he should sleep on the sofa. He’s not the most important person in this situation - you are (without sounding horrible). YOU are the one who has to feel okay to do a million and one things. You need to look after yourself in order to look after your child and household. If he has an issue with that then tell him where to shove it!
Being a parent is 50/50 whether you work full time or you’re a stay at home parent (although that’s a 24/7 job that you don’t get to leave at the end of the day). Tell him to grow up, stop stropping about not getting his “full 8 hours” and to get up with his child every now and then. Mommas need a break to and by the sounds of it, so does your child.
I really hope he pulls his finger out and realises that his attitude is not okay about this situation. BF weaning is HARD work and the last thing you need is to be waking your toddler up more by taking them into the living room and making them think it’s daytime. That’s a very dangerous game to be playing as their sleep pattern change can change so drastically, it can be really detrimental to their sleep…
Good luck

If he’s happy to help with everything when he gets home from work, consider yourself lucky, and let him sleep. Many moms would love to have a husband like yours.
Seriously, your toddler needs his own bed. If he wakes in the middle of the night and cries which he probably will a few times, go in and comfort him for a couple of minutes, then leave the room. He probably thinks it’s playtime with the TV on, a sippy cup and parents awake. Maybe try putting him to bed a little later and see if that helps him sleep longer. A toddler who wakes up in the middle of the night should be able to self sooth and go back to sleep but it’s not going to happen until he’s in his own bed. Good Luck!

Bad habits here. Put the toddler in his own bed in his own room. NO tv if he wakes up in the middle of the night. Quiet music, lullabies, a book read quietly…calming things with emphasis on going back to sleep. An album of lullabies on repeat worked great with both of my kids.
He sleeps through the night, so will you. Sleeping with a tv on in the room is not healthy.

I’m not going to comment on your husband but if your kid is still breastfeeding the trick to getting them to stop biting is to press them into your breast rather than pull them off when they do while saying, “stop biting”. They get a bigger mouthful and learn quickly.

You are just asking for all the “perfect parent” moms to come out and judge you with all their judgments. Personally I think your husband should help. stay-at-home mom is like a full time job. And if he doesn’t want to wake up in the middle of the night with the baby then he can sleep in a different Room or on the couch in my opinion. In today’s day and age dad should help 50% with the child care even more so if the woman works too.

Hey there- this is a simple answer: your husband needs to stop being a weak excuse for a human and man up. Just because you aren’t getting a paycheck doesn’t mean you don’t have shit to do in the morning. Your sleep is no less valuable.
He gave half the genes, he does half the work. He needs to help wean, period.
And by that I mean HE takes the baby to the living room and gives the kid a bottle while YOU sleep. You breastfed for a year, you paid your dues. Done.

Check out a great group on Facebook called Badass Breastfeeder. There is a lot of support there. I nursed both my children until they weaned themselves and it was at 3 years for each. I’m thinking having Dad take them away from Mom and the breast could cause some deep rooted animosity and resentment towards Dad that could be harmful to their relationship. Just my opinion. I once read “Baby them while they are a baby and you won’t need to baby them their whole life”.

I agree with him. With both my children I took them out of the room to handle stuff when he was sleeping because he had to work to support us. During that time it’s best to start putting the child in their own room (if you can) to help that process. Both of you need sleep yes, but without his sleep he can’t work properly to support the family. As tiring as it was it was worth it for me to move with the child and I think it’s rude as heck to turn on the tv in a room with someone sleeping, it ruins good sleep for a lot of people and can build a very bad habit for the child as well that will be hard to break when school starts.
As a fellow mom I hate to say it, but suck it up and do the extra work here because in the end toddler years go by fast and making sure your s/o can work to the best of their ability is just as important as the stay at home mom job you do.

Let your husband sleep. Ask if he will help on on weekends in middle of night. No sense you both be miserable. When toddler sleeps you need to sleep, so take a nap with him. Try to get your child to take longer nap mid day. You’re lucky your husband willing to help all the other times. It shows he really is a good spouse and parent. Don’t worry if you don’t have all your house projects done…. Sleep is critical for everyone and finding a way that everyone gets sleep is important. Ps. Keep your marriage front and center - have date nights. Hire baby sitter. Relax and enjoy this time.

Swop roles, you go find a full time job, he look after your child. He wakes you up at midnight looking at TV and you have to get up a 6am to go to work in the morning. It wont be to long and you will be complaining, I can assure you of that. But you wont, because you have it good, he is a good provider and has a good job.

Hold up… no one is doing you a favour by letting you stay home. Let’s get that straight. Childcare for a child under 3 years old full time costs as much as a minimum wage paycheck, more depending on where you’re living. You’d be working and coming home with nothing to show for it. The fact you’re at home means your son gets 1-1 care that he wouldn’t receive at daycare, you are at home to shoulder most of the housework, the cooking, appointments for the household, food shopping, paying bills, budgeting… I could go on. And this man because he lost a little sleep one day while you were trying to figure out the best way to not (excuse this…) have your tiddy ripped off with teeth has basically told you that you do nothing of worth? That your effort as a stay at home parent is some kind of joke and leisurely walk in the park compared to his idk 9-5? Nah. That right there is disrespectful. Yes, getting the toddler in their own room at this point would probably be the best solution for everyone. But the biggest problem here is the 
disrespect . Tell him to sort his attitude out.

Depending on how old kid is…
I’m sure there are books about co parenting in situations like this might be a start to also avoid arguments and have a happy baby n home
So reality is the child needs he’s own bed and what’s his job my old man was a construction worker and yes I would go to the living room when the kids are sick so I didn’t wake him you can be lazy when you don’t have enough sleep he can’t inless you want him to lose his job my man always got mad I didn’t ask for help but soon relised I’m a stay at home mom if he sees I’m slacken and needs help he’s 100 percent there for me he’ll wake up on weekends with the kids so I can sleep in but you signed up for night shift when you became a stay at home mom and maybe you might resent him a bit but if you wanted him waking up and helping your child would be in day care so you could work nights…
I was lucky not to have that situation. My son started sleeping through the night at a couple months old.

Also idk if this would help you, but I just saw this and thought it was neat!
Since your child is a toddler he should be sleeping in his own bed by now. Even though your husband needs his rest he had a hand in on making the child. Both my ex wife and myself worked full time jobs but if my daughter needed to be fed I would get her and bring her to mom to be fed. It’s just a short time in the scheme of things that your child will grow out of that stage. Too bad if your hisband has a high stress job. He’s the father and needs to get his lazy ass up and help with his son.
You never mentioned if you had other children as well. I can see the added stress on him if that’s the case. If it’s not then make him get up and help out. It takes two to make and raise a child.

I don’t really understand why you are still waking up middle of night to nurse a toddler but then again I have been told my children were not the norm. I EBF my oldest first 10wks before I had emergency surgery. My MIL was helping my husband with baby while I was in hospital and could not believe that at 10wk my daughter slept from 11p-6a. With my youngest I returned to work when she was 2mo and she refused to take a bottle. Her and my mom had 2 rough nights before my daughter realized I wasn’t there to nurse her so she could just sleep all night or take the bottle. At 2mo she started sleeping 10p-5/6a.
Both of my kids co-slept but by 3mo it didn’t matter if they had their head laying right on my book they still would sleep a solid 7-8hrs between bedtime feeding and breakfast.
Now I will admit my oldest gave me problem when she was 3yo and my husband decided it was time for the kids to have their own room. My daughter was use to the TV being on when we were still sleeping with her so I left that alone when I started making her stay in her room. I was still nursing her younger sister so I would turn the TV in their room and watch Disney or Nick Jr while I fed the baby. Some night she would want to sit in my lap to watch TV but more often she would take her doll and go sit on her toddler bed to mimic my actions of “nursing” her doll and would fall asleep… I left her TV on and put a baby gate to block her from getting out of her room. Not going to deny we had a rough couple weeks when we 1st started making her stay in her room. If she woke up in the night I would go to her, we were still dealing with bed wetting and potty training so I would take her to potty and change her pullup if needed but then we went back to the nursery. I would rock her in the rocking chair or I would sit in the floor beside her toddler bed and read to her until she went back to sleep. A few nights I woke up to her just playing with toys quietly so she “didn’t wake her little sister” and most of the time she would fall asleep in the middle of the floor if she had midnight playing. It didn’t take very long for her to understand Daddy and mommy weren’t going to let her into our bed and she started sleeping through the night again.
You have to do what you feel is right for your child but it really won’t help the situation to get into a fight with the other parent. I don’t see a reason for you to lose sleep either. Fix up a baby proofed room, invest in a twin mattress if it makes you feel better to be in that same room. Turn cartoons on volume low, only have cuddle toys available like teddy or a doll. You lay on the mattress in the floor and cuddle a stuffy, tell your child sleepy time and close your eyes. He will either play and watch cartoons or he will lay down and fall back to sleep… You want to break him from the breast then you sleep in layers. Solid sports bra with breast pads (nothing that clasp or zips in front) cover the sports bra with a solid t-shirt (again nothing that buttons or zips). If you are dressed in a way he can’t get to your boobs then it won’t take long to break him.
Time for the toddlers first bed and bedroom.

I don’t see many husbands commenting, so I will. First, I understand what stay at home moms have to do, my wife did it for all three of kids until they could go to a responsible sitter and off breastfeeding. I understand it’s hard for you get to sleep and can’t nap, but it can be done. Wien him now off breastfeeding. Once they can take a sippy cup, and start biting, it’s past time. Sleeping with you guys us a hard one for me as our youngest had to sleep with us because of seizures. Once we got those figured out, it was his own bed for him. Naps are required for him and you. Put him in his own bed, and put a recliner in their for you. Get a motion detector and set it up so you know when he wakes. But he should be taking longer naps. Toddlers need sleep to make them stronger, sleep helps the body and organs grow. Get him used to taking longer naps, and teach him to stay in bed or at least staying in the room until you tell him it’s ok to come out.
As far as your husband, on all three of our kids I was a 911 dispatcher, and later in charge of the dispatch center. I wake at the slightest sound, except for a tv that I’ve always had to have on, otherwise I can’t sleep. It also helped me to listen at several things at the same time as dispatchers have to do. As he is the breadwinner, then it’s strongly important for him to get enough sleep so he isn’t sleepy at work, or even tired. Especially in this day and age of people being fired, sometimes even if there isn’t a reason, (some states have laws allowing it) if he isn’t at top performance, he could lose his job, then where will you be.
First, if the child starts crying take him into the front room, or better yet, his own bedroom, lay him down and tell him he has to go to sleep. Be firm and don’t waver. Let him know it isn’t a negotiable thing. Stick with it and he will soon be sleeping all night, in his own bedroom.
As far as husband, sit down and like two adults, talk about this. No demands, no yelling, screaming or crying. Se if he would consider a meeting halfway. Maybe he can watch the child when he comes home for wish for say an hour, while you take a nap or take a hot bath. Then see if he would consider watching him at least parts of the weekend, so you can have you time. And also see if like every other weekend, get a babysitter on like Saturday night, and you and your husband have time for just you two. Maybe a dinner out, a movie, or both, or just something you two can enjoy without the kiddo.
I know this is long, but believe me, I and my wife went through this. As a member of law enforcement prior to now, for over 35 years, we see it all the time. This is the type of thing that can start fights, domestic disturbances and divorce. And your on your first kid. Bothered a lot of resentment, I’m sure everyone would agree reading your post. You both need to sit down without the kids, and talk this through. It’s worth it. Kids don’t stay kids forever. Hope you guys can straighten this out.

If he isn’t going to help then I guess he can go sleep on the couch

Toddler is supposed to be in own bed in own room… definitely no tv during sleep time.

Out of respect for who has to be up at 6am, I’d not turn on the tv or disturb them. Toddlers generally sleep through the night. If yours isn’t, they may be ready for their own bed. Meaning ready for more space to comfortably sleep.

If you have another bedroom set it up so your toddler and you can sleep in that room allowing your husband to get sleep if he needs it it will also get the child used to their own room

He works… he needs sleep… not sure of what kinds job he has but it’s dangerous if he is tired on thr job I’m assuming… if your tired during the day you can chill for a min… can he? Maybe I was raised different but if the man or woman works hard … we respect them and take care of them… maybe switch the roles if it’s to hard on you… you go work

Put that kid in his own bed!
That’s just common sense, a no brainer, selfish, inconsiderate,unappreciative individual,
You are being ungrateful and disrespectful let him sleep or take your ass and get a JOB
You learn to sleep when the baby sleeps.

Guess your laughing becuase im a man? Men cant raise kids?
Sounds like he doesn’t view you as an equal partner, but as a servant to him,maybe a broodmare too. Sure doesn’t sound like you’re his partner and equal. My advice is take your weaning baby & move on out of there. He’ll get plenty of sleep and you won’t have some asshole judging you. Maybe that’s too harsh, but I’ve had it with asshole men this week, and someone needs to point it out before you spend your entire youth with someone who doesn’t care about you.

I realized that the best thing ever for me was to not sleep with my hubby. I would breastfeed on demand, and he would get annoyed with all the waking up. My hubby is out of the house by 5:30-6am. When I wanted to wean the same thing I’d wake him up so I decided to go to the spare bedroom with out baby and viola everyone slept better and my child weaned easier.

You’re at home. It’s your job. Over the weekend he can help out. I know it’s hard. We all did it. So am sure you can too.
Take the kid to the other room. Kid can’t understand whats on TV at this age.
Get both of them a bottle of warm milk and go back to sleep.
