How many of you cosleep with your newborns. My son is sick and having a few rough nights and he only sleeps when he's…

I've been cosleeping with my daughter since she was born. any little movement she made, I would wake up and check to see if she was fine then go back to sleep

SIDS can happen whether you co sleep or not. it has nothing to do with where they're sleeping. I co sleep with my daughter and because she's so close, my brain tells my body not to move so I dont and as soon as she starts stirring I wake up.

I co sleep with my baby. She sleeps right in the middle of me and her dad. Any move she makes I wake up and any sound she makes we both wake up. Only reason we started to co sleep is because she has acid reflux so she spits up a bunch and chokes on it so we wanted to have her as close as possible. I honestly don't move when shes in bed with us and if i do its like my body knows to be careful for her. She sometimes uses my arm as a pillow and i just hug/cuddle her all night long.

I'd say just sleep on your fitted sheet and don't use a blanket , maybe put some space between you and just keep your hands on them to let them know your there until your comfortable but the other moms are right its like an instinct you will sleep lightly and safely automatically. prob the blanket will be the most concern

The chance of SIDS is actually lessened when co sleeping! So don't worry too much. I've been cosleeping with my 6 week old since he was born. I usually have him so that he's laying on my arm like a pillow. That way he's nuzzled against me and I can hear him breathing. Also the snuggles are nice. When they're close to you, they can feel you breathing and it keeps their breathing steady as well. Are you breastfeeding?

I tried but I wasn't producing enough and then my birth control dried me up completely @haileybuttons
