What is everyone's opinion on cosleeping? I was gonna do it but after the baby shower I didn't get a cosleeper bed to have next to mine and there too expensive for me to purchase so I was thinking of just starting her right off in her crib.
I co sleep with my 2.5 yr old. I maintain a healthy sex life and we have gotten a full nights sleep ever since 3 months old.
i had my babygirl sleep with us up untill her second bday...just because her room was way across the house so i decided to move our rooms around and now she sleeps in her room since the first night.
I co slept with my first and will with my second. My daughter, now 14 months sleeps all night in her crib and naps in her crib.
i know to many people who.have co slept with their babies and 4 years later they are still sleeping with mommy and daddy. which is fine if you don't ever want a normal sex life again lol
I always started with a small bassinet next to my bed and moved to their own room when they grow out of it. I've never slept with my kids in my bed, was always worried I wouldn't want to break them from it later and we'll I enjoy my privacy lol
I'm leaning more towards putting her directly in her crib because without a cosleeper next to the bed I wouldn't want her in the bed because me and my fiancé move around way to much and he is such a heavy sleeper I would be so scared of him rolling over
i started my first daughter off in her crib the day she came home from the hospital she is 1 1/2 now and doesn't want to sleep any where but her own bed. it makes things a little easier that I can just go put her in bed with her blankey and she will go right to sleep. Makes me a little sad sometimes though because I miss her being so small and want to take a nap with her sometimes but she won't sleep unless she is in her bed. its more of a plus then anything else even if it makes me sad sometimes lol
we coslept for like 4 or 5 months. she slept either on my chest or sideways with her head on my chest.
we have a bed rail since it's already me, my husband, and my 4 year old son in the bed. The regalo extra long rail has really good Co sleeping reviews and is only about $30 at WalMart. if you have a bargain hunt anywhere around you, I'd look there first cause we got ours for $7.20.
maybe try and go to a once upon a child and see if they have any bassinets there. the one by me had some when I went to get my crib that were decently priced.
I'm going to use a bassinet and put it right next to the bed
