Hi Everyone, my name is Lou and my partner is Vicky. We have a beautiful 6 month old baby girl named India. We are attachment parenting (I exclusively breastfed for the first six months and now have introduced Baby Led Weaning/Solids but hope to continue breastfeeding as long as my little girl wants, we coseep and babywear etc). We attend a local attachment parenting playgroup and have met some lovely mums and kids but most of the people I know including all but one in my Mother's Group are not doing AP and it can be a little tiring having to explain over and over why we do or dont do certain things. For example all the other mum's in our group are doing CIO and I dont believe CIO is necessary, in fact I believe it to be damaging to a baby but I am constantly being questions by these friends and family members as to why I dont just put my bub in a cot and let her cry. Anyway I hope to make some new friends on here who view things in a similar way to myself and my partner
