Arghhhhhh!  I am so confused!  Up until this week my 6 1/2 month dd slept with me at night (with absolutely no problems and would sleep well but snack most of the night) but didn't have a very good ability to go to sleep in the day.  Naps would entail feeding to sleep then sleeping on me or being pushed in pram.  She did go through a brief period of being transferred to cot but soon realised what was going on and would cry. 

Since Monday i reached breaking point with not being able to put her down and with the help of my HV decided to use CC to get her to sleep better.  She also said it would be easier if naps and night sleeps were in cot.  I reluctantly agreed as love her in my bed. 

However, she has taken really well to sleeping at night and for the three nights she has done is as virtually slept 10hours with no wakings.  Naps she will sleep for 45mins.  There is some crying to get to sleep but not much.  All of this is fab….BUT

I went out today for the first time since starting this and my baby would not feed to sleep or indeed really feed.  She used to feed to sleep anywhere and we really relaxed as to where we were.  I don't know what to do now.  My HV said that i should use CC when out and put dd in pram and push into a corner – how can i realistically do that and anyway i dont want to. 

What is a good compromise and how do i go about it.  Is it something to do with the sleep associations she now uses?  When at home i feed her in room (darkened) in her sleep bag and then place half awake into cot and let her settle herself.

Please someone give me some help.  I am so confused.  In one way i am really happy that she is good at home but going out is going to become a nightmare! 

Thank you in advance.
