Amy, you sound really tired! My ben nursed so much between age 1 and 2, which
is the age of your child. I was tempted to do some of the "interventions"
(no num nums till the sun is up), but i KNEW he would not go for it.
Sometimes with night nursing i would unlatch him half asleep after a few
minutes of nursing, and he would go for it and roll over. This way, i would
get back into deep sleep quicker.
