So my baby is 6 months old now and I’ve always nursed him to sleep and for the first few months we were blessed with a good sleeper, he’s hit a sleep regression, but only on nights I’m home. I work weekend nights and he sleeps great for my husband but when I’m home he’s back to waking up every 2-3 hours. We’ve followed the same bedtime routine as when I go to work and he’s on the same nap schedule but it’s like when I’m home he wakes up to use me as a pacifier. My husband thinks we should sleep train but I just feel so sad not comforting him to sleep. Is this temporary or does it actually create a bad habit?

That’s they’re natural way of taking care of your milk production! It’s not a bad habit, it’s what’s biologically normal ✨ I would just enjoy and co sleep.
I think it’s goes by too fast when you wean then you can do other methods!

It is creating a habit. My girls are 22 months and 11 months and the habit is still there. Early sleep training is a life saver cause now the habit is harder to let go without them kicking and screaming and messing up their sleep schedule. If with your husband he sleeps through the night, it might be beneficial to let him do it.
