I hope this brings you the same sigh of relief and permission to make a change that it has brought to so many attachment parents I support. 💛
Practices like bed-sharing and nursing on demand are beautiful if they serve your family. But the misconception that keeps so many parents feeling stuck is believing that physical closeness equals secure attachment - and that needing space or sleep will ruin the connection.
In reality, secure attachment isn’t built on 24/7 physical access or self-sacrifice. It’s built on all the things that attachment parents often try so hard to avoid: separation & reunion, rupture, repair, and how you show up for your child during big feelings or after hard moments.
Your capacity, your mental health, and what your body can sustainably give matter. You don’t have to stay trapped in something that is depleting you just to protect a bond that is already much stronger and more resilient than you think. 🫶
