Bed sharing bed???

Question

My hubby and I are buying a king sized bed. I just don't care anymore what people say; we are going to bed share safely. My daughter sleeps so well next to me and just hates her crib. We try every single night over and over and she cries and cries. I am exclusively breastfeeding so it makes sense to have her next to me. I have researched pros and cons and I feel in my heart it's the right choice. With that being said, is anyone else bed sharing? If so, what bed would you recommend as the safest choice?? Any help would be super appreciated!!

Answer

We've co slept since day one (also a king bed) I just have a pillow behind my back and on the edge of the bed so he can't ever roll off but my arm is usually behind him too. It just makes breastfeeding so much easier at night. I just recently put his crib up against my side with one side removed to hopefully start getting him used to sleeping in it next to me we'll see how that actually goes.  It's hard to tell in the pic with all the pillows and mess lol. I had to trap him while I rearranged the room.

I tried my girl in her crib and she wasn't having it. I breastfeed her so i found it easy to Just let her sleep with us. Only trouble is now she is a wild sleeper.

Answer

Our son sleeps with us on rough nights and when I'm home alone. I just clear a spot in the middle where he will sleep between my husband and myself. We have a king bed that is more firm, tight fitting sheets too. When I'm alone I stack pillows where my husband would be and he sleeps between me  and the pillows. He doesn't roll much except toward me to snuggle (it's the sweetest). And I sometimes sleep with him on his side and my arm under his head, wrapped around his back, I hope that makes sense.

Answer

We absolutely love having our little guy sleep between us most nights, and we only have a queen bed. I'm not even breast feeding anymore, we all sleep so well when we're together! Some evenings when we want green up time we put him to sleep in his cot and then bring him to the bed when he wakes up in the early hours.

Answer

If it's 3am I have my son come to bed with me. I just put him I between me and my husband. We have a king.

Answer

We have a Cal King bed and share it with our daughter. We have the bed against the wall and that's where she sleeps, on the inside. I too am exclusively breastfeeding the baby. She sleeps through the night and everyone is happy. We have a tempurpedic mattress for my back when I injured it on the line of work back in 2006. I do recommend it and it's worth every penny. I don't care what anyone says, my baby is the happiest baby and that's all that matters.

Answer

I was just telling my husband we need a king size one. Between him hogging half the bed and my daughter latched to me every sec I have a time out space on the edge 😔😔😔😫😩😒😒

Answer

I've done it unintentially. Little one just wouldn't sleep. We got a new bed not long ago and it's King size. I usually just lay him on his side with my arm around him so he doesn't fall out. I don't put the duvet over him either I just kinda tuck it under me.

Answer

I preach safe sleeping practices all day and go home and co-sleep... It's a parenting choice and you have to do what works for you and your family. My son co-slept until 3 1/2 and now my daughter co-sleeps. We just have a queen but my husband works overnights so it is just the two of us. We got the mesh toddler rails to put on her side so she doesn't fall out of bed.
