  • Lol, @vette_devil, maybe you will! Easy was definitely not something I complained about, but I sure did get jealous that I rarely got to hold a sleeping baby-they're so warm and comfortable! Now I just take advantage of them when they're sick and hold them till they feel better, since they can't get away. :) good luck with your little one, too!
  • My daughter got sick at 6 months old just a cold but I got paranoid about her cleepin and had her in bed with me ever since...her father was only in bed for the first year of co sleeping then he left.....we have only a 1 bedrrom apt and she does have her own bed but she barely ever uses it...she's 3.5 now and I don't anticipate issues with her sleeping all night in her bed but she won't fall asleep in it....with new one on the way I gotts do it though so she doesn't get bothered by me waking up or nursing should be fun!!
  • my gf 3 yr old baby boy sleeos in the bes w us. n he is gonna get booted when the baby arrives (: then the new bday will sleep w us. till. . .um idk 3 seems like a good age I guess. gonna have to play it by ear
  • I co slept with all 4 of my kids.the oldest 3 transitioned very well to there own bed but not the 4th child he's 17months n will not sleep at all unless right nxt to me and touching me.im 16wks n just bought a arms reach co sleeper to go right nxt to the bed.I will be breast feeding again so baby will go in bed for very lil but now im afraid bc my 4th isn't transitioning at all im afraid to co sleep wit this baby :-S
  • @first time daddy I have some experience wit it and just a lil advice u should start transitioning him out of the bed b4 baby comes bc it could be hard n don't want the new baby being woken up by crying n if u wait till babies born he could fell like he's being replaced for baby.with my 1st she transitioned perfect.2nd was ok lil harder than the 1st.3rd was perfect and 4th im in trouble big time I think it will be me hubby my 17month old n newborn all in bed 2gether.I've been trying wit him for about a wk now n has been escruciating. We bought him a toddler bed bc we thought mayb it was the crib.nope not it.he is in bed in our rm and in 2wks he will be going into his own rm I bought a $35 baby tv monitor off of craigslist so he can be in rm n cry wit door closed n put himself to sleep by himself but he'll still be safe bc ill be watching him on monitor. %%- good luck

  • @landynplus1momma that's the exact and and issue I had with my son and since I refused to let him cry it out as the dr told us, we took him to a sleep specialist and they were awesome with the transition!!!
  • @momma2joe where do u find sleep specialists?? Ive never heard of one b4
  • In the childrens hospital. I got the dr to give me the referral because my son was waking up 8-12 times a night wanting to nurse at 15 months old. He only nursed long enough to fall back to sleep but I felt like his pacifier!!! They transitioned him in different steps so it was not hard on any of us!
  • @momma2joe : that's great advice! I wish I would have read that before I weaned my daughter! That was much harder than the bed transition! I will definitely keep it in mind should I need it with the next baby! :D
