Cosleeping mamas - why did you decide to cosleep?

Question

I personally decided to cosleep around 2 months because I have the bed to myself and like to get snuggles and love the ease of nursing but I'm now moving her to her crib! What about you ladies?

Answer

Just the convenience due to breast feeding

Answer

Because I’m lazy and don’t want to get back up again lol

Answer

I’ve co-slept from day one because I need the sanity that comes with sleep, and having him beside me so I can just nurse him back to sleep when he wakes up gives me that.

Answer

We started about 6 weeks in because he started rolling but would sleep with his face down. I was terrified he was going to suffocate and I could hear him breathing if he was next to me 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

We are cosleeping since day 1. Basically because I had a lot of stiches down there and was difficult for me to get up all the time. Like this I just popped my boob out and thats it😁Eventually he is going to sleep in his own crib but for now he still wakes up 3-5 times to nurse at night and this way is easier for me. Plus I like having him close, cuddling😊😍

Answer

convenient/ease of nursing while side lying, also it's the most natural thing to do 🤷‍♀️ babies are meant to be with their mothers

Answer

We had her in a Rock-n-Play in the room with us at first. We were going to buy a bassinet, but it was recommended by a coworker whose daughter almost died from spitting up in her sleep. Once it got recalled we tried the pack-n-play and the crib but she would just cry. So up until a month or two ago she and I were sleeping on an air matress together. Now she sleeps in her crib most nights, but I still sleep on the air matress next to her in case she wakes up during the night. Plus, I love having my own bed. My husband snores and takes up all the room. If we have another baby we will definitely be getting a bassinet next time around.

Answer

I co sleep from the beginning. I breastfeed, I like sleep, but more importantly, I need the baby cuddles. I need to keep him close to me. ♡ I slept with my daughter until she was 2. and most likely will do the same with my son. they're only this little once.

Answer

Started cosleeping at 5 months because she wouldn’t sleep in her pack n play. My husband and I were literally naive enough to think she’d sleep in it and she never did 😭 she slept in a swing the first 3 months then we just woke up every hour when she was in the pack n play.  
I love sleeping with my little one and I’m breastfeeding so i just pop my boob out to feed

Answer

It started as convenience and when he was newborn he wanted to be close to mama.
But since we both work long hours and get limited time with him during the week, it’s nice to have him snuggled up with us at night ☺️ seeing his perfect little sleeping face brings both my husband and I so much joy! He even naps on my husband or I at gone and hates when I e put him down. But at daycare he naps in a crib all by himself perfectly fine! We all miss each other and love being close when we can ❤️
