I was really against it also! but breastfeeding, its so easy to lay them next you and fall back asleep while they are still eating because they stop when they are full and my daughter goes right to sleep.. she likes to lay against me.. but we try to start her out in her basinet, she just ends up sleeping next to me because we fell asleep.. its like the only way we can get some sleep and shes to little she doesnt realize shes in our bed.. i think she smells are scent on the sheets and what not.. but we are going to make sure when shes older she doesnt sleep with us at all.. its just were out here tryin to survive with a newborn who wakes up 3 or more times a night! @graysonsmama Just do whatever you can to make it through the night, its your kid!
