I have co-slept with both of my children. I bedshare every night with my now 11 month old and my husband still cosleeps with our 3yo if he wakes in the night and needs or asks for that support. Works so well for our family. I felt much more confident with our choice to do so with our second child, a lot less sure with my eldest- there was a lot of ‘noise’ from different sources that at times had me questioning myself. But I’m glad that we were able to shut it out, do our research, find brilliant resources that helped us on our journey and ultimately do what felt right for our baby. No regrets!
I did when my lo was little, I breastfed so it was a lot better for us!
Yes, both my partner and I like it, no plans to stop anytime soon ❤️ Made breastfeeding in the night so much easier.
Yes
we attempted but with him waking through the night i couldn’t do it. we could just be lucky but i really think him having his own space benefited his sleep. he likes to move in his sleep and sprawl out, he doesn’t want to feel me move or hear us wake up. we started by making his crib a safe spot for him as a newborn and introducing it slowly. he started sleeping on his own and we’ve only had 2/3 nights since where he’s woken up and not wanted to go immediately back to sleep and he’s 8 months
Yes, with all five of my children. It made breastfeeding so much easier.
Thank you all sooo much for sharing! It's such an interesting topic and one we will be delving into more in The Village - we have an expert speaker coming in to talk about the subject as since having Olivia, I've learnt a lot about co-sleeping. As with everything, it's all personal preference and whatever works for you and your family 🥰
Yes! I’ve been co-sleeping since baby was 3 weeks old. It’s the only thing that has kept me sane and get rest. She wakes me up every 2-4 hours to feed by latching onto my boobs. It feels natural and I’ve never had a problem with rolling over her etc.
