Can I have a private post please?

My son is 16 months and doesn’t sleep. He eats well, he has a good bedtime routine etc and is in bed by 8. I still breastfeed (not by choice but by not knowing what the f**k else to do) he has 1 nap a day which is usually around 10am for about 40mins up to a hour.

For him to sleep he has to have my breast and I know its not the milk he wants, it’s just the comfort. Depending on how tired he is he will either fall asleep on my breast or will roll around on our bed and fall asleep. Will put him in his own room in his own bed by 8 and he will be up by 10 which is when me and my partner tend to go to bed so will get him out his cot, give him breast milk again then put him back. Then he will be up again either straight away or 1am. By this time I end up bringing him in bed with us as I need to get up at 5am for work so its just easier for me to put him next to me and breastfeed and sleep.

We are also trying for another baby and it doesn’t seem to be happening, I’m worried it wont happen until i stop breastfeeding. Does anyone have any tips on what I can do to potentially get him off my boob without hard methods like Cry it out etc as we’ve tried it a couple of times before and its not for us and any tips on how to get him to sleep through? Thank you
