Co sleep

How many people actually co sleep with there babies I have been co sleeping with my little one for about 8 weeks she’s now 9 weeks and all I seem to be getting is don’t do that your gonna kill your daughter don’t do that your a bad mum don’t do that and it feels like I’m in the wrong I do sleep as safe as can be even brought toddler hand rails so she doesn’t fall of the bed or get wedged anywhere Here’s the motive when she gets out in her next to me after bath bed and boob she will scream and not just the ordinary scream like the scream to the point she’s choking being sick proper crying choking on her own sick she gets really emotional so since being in bed she has actually slept some decent night sleeps and there’s no screaming or anything What do I do The health visitor doesn’t come out any more and neither does the midwife Do i stop co sleeping or carry on and if so what are your thoughts

As long as you are being safe about it (which you are) then there is nothing about it that makes you a bad Mom. People always have things to say about other Moms whether it’s about feeding, sleeping, what birth you chose etc. We co-sleep off and on ourselves because it is easier also for me when he wakes for a feeding. Sometimes we do put him in his crib, then he will fuss so we put him in the bed with us and he’ll give a cheeky little smile. But, no you are absolutely not doing anything wrong, people always have something to say

Hi there🌼 same situation here. We have tried two different cot beds for her 😆 just to end up co sleeping 🥰 but I can tell you it’s the best decision ever, we both get such a good sleep. She wakes up few times a night but she’s having the breast and going back to sleeping (she won’t even open her eyes) 😆😆 so don’t worry you are doing an amazing thing 🥰🥰 they sleep better because they feel safe next to us 🩷

I co sleep after the early morning feed, it’s the only way to get her back to sleep As long as you follow safe sleep 7 and are confident that you sleep light enough to wake then I wouldn’t worry too much. Lots of countries co sleep as standard and they have the lowest rates of SIDS. trust your instincts and do what works for you and your baby xxx

I’ve been co sleeping with my girl since she was 2 weeks old, she’s now 9 weeks I just make sure there is no pillows or duvet on her side and use a sleeping bag for her

I co sleep and I love it. Co sleeping can be done in a safe way. You are not alone ❤️

Cosleeping for about 2 months now with no intention to stop. I try and get him to nap at least once a day in his Moses basket but his Snuzpod might as well be a bed of nails for how he reacts 😂 I love cosleeping though!

I didn’t co-sleep with my first and it meant we didn’t sleep for over two years. This time, I am co-sleeping and it means we are both getting some sleep. Which in turn means we are able to do things in the day and I’m not totally wrecked. I wish I did this with my first tbh

We do a bit of both. My midwife said it is fine as long as you follow the safe sleep guidance.
