Co-sleeping Moms that co-sleep with their newborn: was it scary at first thinking you might roll…

No because I'm a light sleeper.

I do regret it though. Only co slept with my first.

I haven't had the baby yet but my husband says he wants the baby in bed with him because he wants to be able to check on him and make sure he can feel that he is still breathing and feels safer with the baby in the bed. I'm just so scared lol

Cosleep with both babies, my 2 year old doesn't always sleep with us once in a while she comes to our bed and my 9 month old sleeps with us. No regrets and transition wasn't hard. Look up breastsleeping

Maybe look into getting a sidecar. That way baby's right next to you or your hubby, but the risks are lessened.

I co slept with my daughter to about 7/8 months! Putting her in her cot was a nightmare she's now two and a half and is still in-between me and daddy! I'd try to avoid it really. You can get a cot type thing that you can position on the side of your bed and when you're new patent worries are over just slowly move it away from your bed? X

It was scary at first but I've been a single mom since day one and having a king sized bed helped. Lol I would put him as close to the wall as I could and I slept on the other side with my hand on his head. Within a week I was by him lol I couldn't sleep so far away lol

I was scared in the beginning but you know the baby is there. I was breastfeeding and we literally just fell asleep together it made everything way easier and more comfortable and i got so much more sleep then i did with my first child. Your body knows the baby is there i really dk how mother roll on the baby to be honest unless u sleep like a rock.

I don't always do it, but when lo wakes up to breast feed in the middle of the night about half the time I lie on my side and we both fall asleep that way... I've heard that many mother's have a sense of their bodies in relation to their newborns so it is far less likely that a mother rolls over on or otherwise injures their baby... Even if I am exhausted, the nights she is in bed with me it seems like I automatically wake up to check on her every half hour or so. It's only when she's in her crib that I'll sleep straight thru the 4 or so hours that she's asleep

I'm a very heavy sleeper but somehow when I sleep with my daughter I just sense her presence in my sleep. She is 15 months and I have never rolled on her. First 3 months she slept in our bed. After that she sleeps with us occasionally but usually in her own bed. After 6 months she was in her own room regularly. I personally think she was safer sleeping with us than by herself.
