It done well for my son and me.
I find she is more relaxed and happier, I can respond to what she needs before she cries, there's a lot more interaction between us so she is more engaged in what is going on around her
He loves to be held by me, and he already responds to when I call his name. He'll come crawling at top speed
This has help me with my youngest as I am intune with her moods and needs.

Elimination communication, cloth diapers - for a while
We discovered through experience that the best thing for our little girl has been constant contact with mum in the sling and co-sleeping (when she could get a little milk from the breast it worked great overnight) She has recently decided to go in the pram and the cradle, without us forcing her and is very interactive. She seems very secure already and is such a curious little baby!
We have co-slept for 15 months and are working to transition to his own bed. 15 months of breastfeeding.

my son has never really slept in a crib. he has always been with me in our bed. in the hospital when he was born. he roomed in with us. never wen to the nursery. i do answer him on every cry. breastfed him and carried him around close to me. it works. and i believe it is better for him.
Breastfeeding, co-sleeping, baby-wearing when she was smaller, have all been helpful.

I did this in the first year for my 2nd daughter. She was full term but very tiny. I carried her in a sling all the time! Not sure if this is truly attachment parneting....
