just one night..

My baby girl is 7 weeks, and since she was born she has slept in her own in her bassinet, well last I let her sleep w me because she kept walin up, and during the day when she is asleep sometimes I put her next to me and she sleeps for hours, will she get used to this if it was only one.night?

opps i meant she and her haha

My son slept with us for about 7 months, well he slept in hus bassinet beside our bed and when he woke up id bring him into bed with us since i was breastfeeding. He has no issues sleeping on his own now. I think youll be good as long as hes not sleeping with you every night all night until hes like one. then it might be harder to get him to sleep on his own

I couldn't imagine sharing my bed with two ppl while being nine months pregnant when I was nine months pregnant I wanted to kick my boyfriend off the bed(: hope its gets veterans for you Amy!(:

Im the same way, stay at home mother and do not went her to be sleeping w me and my boyfeiend, for the same reasons, I just caved last night out of being so tired, she sleeps longer I noticed but I have done so well since day one she has slept alone, I will not make the mistake of putting her in our bed again however do you ladies think I am doing damage control
by letting her lay w me on the couch when she naps during the day?

I myself do not agree with co-sleeping. I don't think its healthy for the infant/child or parents. I have the benefit of being a stay at home mom so during the day is the time I spend with my kids and night time is for me n my man to communicate, cuddle and of course anything else :) but from bringing baby into bed one night at such a young age you are not starting a habit if u continue though you will have issues getting your child to be an independent sleeper.

My son co-slept with us until about 5 months then he was on his own. Then at about a year and a half he stopped sleeping alone. He's going to be 3 this month and I still can't get him to sleep on his own. Some nights I love it, others not so much being 9 months pregnant lol

Thank you both ladies, right now I want her to sleep w me but not in the firture so I prefer her sleeping in the bassinet its just those tough nights and I'm so sleepy but for sure she will be back.in her bassinet tonigt I was just worried about her making a habit out of it, I've seen first hand my niece having a hard time sleeping in her crib in her own room and if all goes well in December we will be purchasing our first house and she will have her own room unlike our apartment and at that point I would love for her to sleep independently in her crib in her room!

Ok, there may not always be consequences, but thats what happened to me, I was only passing on my experience, I make no judgement on those whochoose to co sleep, its a personal choice. My point was simply if you dont want it to continue, then try not to do it too often, we've all done it at some point but it can be a hard habit to break.

[Clysta]

Who says there would be consequences? All children, and all babies are different. I've co-sleep with my daughter since was 2 weeks and still do. She probably will until she's old enough to move to her own bed - do what you're comfortable with. One night will not destroy her.

[sorenr]

Probably not, but do try not to let it become a habit, I made that mistake with my first and he still hates going to bed and he's 8 yrs old. From someone whos been there, it is honestly better to have a few bad nights now than suffer the consequences for years to come :)
