Me too, me too. I've been working on introducing a lovey for months now (because, you know, the books all say that it helps). Today I thought I'd try cuddling in bed with the lovey myself, modeling how to cuddle the lovey while laying down and closing my eyes. Baby was bemused for a few minutes, then pulled the lovey out of my arms, threw it across the bed and tried to lift up my shirt.
He knows perfectly well that he's tired, and wants to lay down, but he WON'T sleep without nursing/wearing/car ride/gently pinning down/all of the above.
