What positions do you use if you bedshare with an infant under 9 months?

Question

This is not a discussion about whether or not bedsharing is safe. Fact is, people do it. I’d like to know how those families sleep.

Answer

She sleeps with her head boob-level. I fall asleep on my side with my arm sticking above her head and my knees under her feet.

Answer

I don’t bed share with this one but I did with my first kind of in this position (partly because my boob was in her mouth a majority of the night)
You can’t roll on baby if your arm is out like that

Answer

Side lying with baby as the little spoon. Always have their head at the same height as yours and you’ll be fine.
