Y'all I see too many moms sleeping in the bed with their little babies and I'm telling you its not worth taking the risk please from someone who has lost their little one due to co sleeping don't do it. I understand if baby cries in any other bed Noah was like that too but I'm begging you to please put them on their back in a firm safe surface with no blankets or toys. I didn't think it would happen to me and it did and its something I will regret the rest of my life.
@futuremomma248 honestly once I had and held my son at first was awkward of course but after I got accustomed to it my body just pretty much knew like anything and everything I do there's a little person in your arms so before I wake up or before moving my mind would somehow remind my body that he's there I just felt more safer with him with me as well.
This is not directed at the OP, but I will just stay if any of you moms are using any kind of medicine or you drink a little. Obviously don't cosleep. Or if you are a heavy sleeper and you worry about rolling over on your baby. Get a cosleeper. This way they are in their own little space but still right next to you. I personally could never put my baby in a crib because I have seen babies die of SIDS even in cribs. I just feel comfortable or with my baby right next to me. I still bedshare.
Your story and Brookes will help tons of mothers. Im sorry for your loss.
@___youaremysunshine___, I’m really sorry for your loss. what happened, if you don’t mind me asking. I sleep with my 8 month old..
@___youaremysunshine___, oh okay I’m sorry to hear about that .!! I’m not going to be co sleeping anyway I just wanted to know for like future references or for other moms to know.. but Iknow mesh stuff is okay But a doc a tot wouldn’t be okay for the bby to sleep in with U on the bed !
I’m so sorry you have to endure something so very tragic, Mama 💔
Thank you for educating and being an advocate for these precious babies we get the privilege and blessing to love.
I co-slept with my first daughter (still do), she’ll be 3 in August. It’s definitely not something I’ll do again though. My newborn thankfully sleeps peacefully on her own unlike my first.
I will say those are still safer than just having them in the bed without any protection
@marielovely honestly after my experience I just wouldn't do it. I've heard those could cause sids but mine rolled over in his sleep because the bed was too soft. so it was a different situation.
@mother.of.2, same with me, i used to move a lot in my sleep but I would find my arm aching in the morning from not moving it at all. Once my son could roll over I got rid of the cosleeper and we just bed share
