I try to stay tuned in, responsive and attached. Sometimes we do holding time.
We practiced some aspects of attachment parenting when he was younger (extended breastfeeding, cosleeping, etc). We now have a loving, trusting relationship with him.

I love attached parenting.. I lovet to know my son has a great environment.
The more you answer their real needs and the more you let them cuddle with you and in some instances sleep with you the better they seem to adjust to the world around them. Just my thought. Side Effects...well right now they are very lonely without us.
My babies have all loved the sling, and we co-sleep for the first few months.
Dr Sears is my man & I related to his description of "high needs" babies/children's early on. It has worked for us yet it is very exhausting at times.

I believe in AP - I think it has made Nora very willing to engage others and still know I am around.
attachment parenting allowed me to be very close to and respond to my child's needs. I find I was much more 'strict' about AP'ing when he was a baby, but it does have its place now too.

I have been a stay at home mom for 8 years it seems to be easyer for the children and I to do it this way till they r all in school.
