Baby fights sleep

Hi mummies, I'm a bit desperate and need some suggestions. My son is almost 13 months and still needs to be carried to sleep. I and my husband have to take turns to do this and it is really taking a toll on us - on our backs. Plus we need to stand while doing this (we are using baby carrier/sling) . I wouldn't mind it but the backache is getting worse and he is growing. Hence, I am worried how long this will continue and affect our back pain. On top of that, my son really cries and fight sleep even though he is so sleepy which makes it more difficult because we feel so guilty for even putting him to sleep. Night time especially after work and when we are all tired, is the most frustrating time to go through this. He only has 1 nap a day (noon) and he sleeps only after 10pm. I tried to make him fall asleep on his own on the bed pretending to be asleep, sitting down and rocking him on the sofa but it doesn't work at all. How and when can this pattern change? What should I do? Any suggestions please except for the crying out method because honestly I think that option is not for me, I don't think I can handle that. Even when he cries while im carrying him is making me feel bad, so crying out method will be a complete failure for me. Did anyone go through this and what did you do to change this. TIA.

We co sleep with our baby and has recently setup bed rails. Our 11mo would play and eventually falls asleep on her own. It may take an hour but I simply let her be (most of the time I fall asleep before she does)

Low milk supply, any suggestions please?

Hi mummies, my baby is currently 6 weeks and I've been trying really hard to breastfeed however i feel i have low milk supply because whenever i pump its around 20 to 30 ml only. Seems like it's not enough for him and that's why i combine it with formula milk now to ensure he is getting enough. Did any mummies have this issue, if yes how did you manage it? Im also taking fenugreek supplements, pumping frequently but nothing seems to work. What is the optimal volume of breastmilk which i should have week by week as baby is growing, any idea? #advicepls #pleasehelp #firsttimemom

Yes sometimes it’s common but actually formula will work
