What are your thoughts on co-sleeping?

Question

There are pro's and con's to everything. What do you feel are some pro's and or con's to co-sleeping.

Answer 1

co sleep.  he sleeps, we sleep all night long

Answer 2

For me it would be a "con".  I was paranoid about rolling over on my baby or not waking up if something happened the few times he did sleep in our bed.  We kept him in a bassinet at the side of the bed for the first 5 months.

For me, I wouldn't be getting the sleep I needed.  At least in his crib I know he's safe (he's also older now)

Answer 3

I was always terrified of rolling on him while breastfeeding.  I was always exhausted with him, functioned on very little sleep & I have always been a light sleeper/troubled sleeper.. but when I finally fall asleep... I am a sound sleeper!  I would have nightmares of rolling on him & sleeping through it, so no for me.  Everyone is different & has different situations... if it works for you, then all the best!!!

Answer 4

He may sleep and you may sleep but sucks for the sex life...period!!!
