We aren't strictly vegan and don't cosleep, but the rest 👍👍👍

me and my boyfriend used to be really wiggly and toss and turn and roll over in each other in our sleep but once i was in my 3rd trimester and sleeping became horrible for me, we both started sleeping in one position longer to help stay comfortable. the first few times i fell asleep with our baby on my chest or next to me in the bed i would wake up and start freaking the fuck out. but the more often it happened the more i began to realize neither me nor my bf move around to squish him. sometimes we'll put little throw pillows around him, or ine of us will keep our arms wrapped around him. i think it's instinct honestly, because with my small dog i used to wake up half way on top of him (which he likes to cuddle extremely close so he didn't mind). like your body just knows to be more careful with the baby.

I wake up to the littlest movements so the second I feel his weight on me I wake up and just instantly get mad lol the only times I'll have him in our bed is when my boyfriends at work and I can take a nap with the baby. Other then that I'm too scared to have him and both of us in bed.

@scc2413, same here! I might be able to do it on nights he works since he works 3rd shift but I don't want her to get used to it and not be able to sleep anywhere else. 😕 and I'm afraid he'll roll over and squish her or get mad that he can't roll everywhere because he already squishes me half the time!

I'd cosleep is we could but my boyfriend rolls on top of me and doesn't even realize it til I get mad that he hasn't moved and push him off haha My son will be right next to me in his bassinet though so it's close enough.

@bakingbabylovett, it's not easy! I always said I would do a home water birth but when it came to me actually getting pregnant and thinking about it I realized I wouldn't be able to mentally. I won't be able to cloth diaper either, at least not for a while. like I said up top I won't be able to cosleep but she'll be right beside our bed, especially since she'll need to feed every two hours at first. I do plan on using all organic/natural products, even down to bedding and her mattresses. and we'll be making our own baby food from natural organic foods since that's what i eat and I won't introduce her to meat until she's old enough to make that decision on her own since I'm vegetarian. my family calls me a crazy hippie for all of this and I know it's a lot of work but I don't really care; it's better for her in the long run.

Yeah I planned to be all natural when it came to birthing and parenting my child BUT my family basically killed all those dreams. Although I still plan on BF and baby wearing, so I'm excited about that. Lol

@katarama same lol my little proba ly won't have to cry for an thing lol unless she just decides that's how she feels

@hermommy, it's more natural than letting them cry it out in a crib. we can't cosleep either for the same reason haha but she'll be as close to me as possible in her bassinet.

co sleeping is natural? wish that was an option Joseph would squish her
