I've been breastfeeding since Mylie was an hour old. The only way she'll fall asleep is on my breast. Will she grow out of it? Or is there domething i can do to get her to fall asleep on her own?

Hi, I could not breastfeed but i did have the problem of my son falling asleep during a bottle. I brought a musical mobile and put it in his cot so when it was time for a sleep I turned it on and he watched it and took himself off to sleep. I didnt feed him and put him straight to bed because he related the bottle to the sleep (I hope i am making sense to u) let me know if im not k goodluck :)
