I noticed my son sleeps longer and better besides me. But I put him on my side not in between me and my boyfriend. Your baby spends 9-10 months in your tummy, now he wants to be with his mommy.

This will be my first but she will in a bassinet beside my bed. My husband  is a deep sleeper and sometimes rolls over on top of me so Im afraid he will do it to her. Better safe than sorry for me!

Trust me before I had my son I was a heavy sleeper I would sometimes even sleep criss cross apple sauce with my head on the wall. Lol

Mommy instincts will kick in trust me...

I did it with all 3 and they are 9,8 & 6 and I regret it cause they still like to sleep with me I tell them they are to big but its my fault for letting them get use to sleeping with me with this one I will not make the same mistake but her daddy wants her to be in the bed with us I am not for it though

We do for the first few months while establishing breastfeeding and then they move to their crib once they're only getting up once or twice for feedings.  I've never had any issues with them moving to their own rooms.

I tried not to with my first, but sometimes i feel asleep with her, but i always tried to put her back in her bed because one time i fell asleep breastfeeding and it was so scary to wake up and see my boob in her mouth almost covering her nose. Its very dangerous if u are a heavy sleeper. Thankfully im a very light sleeper and woke up before she got smothered

I'm a very light sleeper and I co slept for awhile cuz of breast feeding so I'll probably do it again with a bassinet in the room in case I decide to want the bed to myself lol <3

My sister did with my niece. And it was harder on her than my niece when she had her own bed. She was three and would sleep in her own room and my sister would sneak in and bring her to her bed in the middle of the night lol

I did with my first and 3 1/2 yrs later she wants to be in my bed every night! She has a big girl bed and a big room all done with her favorite things and she sleeps on a palette on the floor next to my bed! I will not be doing that again! It's one of my relationships biggest argument#

My first i did it was hard not to co sleep since I worked 12 hrs at the time and breastfeed so it wad the "only" bonding time at the moment. But its barley been 1 year lok my daughter sleeps in her toodler bed she's 6 lol and in our room. I'm try not to co sleep w this bby  and once my bbys a couple mnths I plan moving both of them into thier room

I usually end up doing so. It's not my plan but I just get so tired. Baby always sleeps better next to me.
