Yes especially since I’m exclusively breastfeeding. Only way I can get some sleep sometimes.
same.. usually he will sleep in his bassinet but there are times where he simply cannot settle unless he’s close.. people are just judgy but sleeping close with baby feels natural

i've been cosleeping with my daughter since she was a week or so old.. she wouldn't sleep anywhere else. we tried the bassinet, the swing, a rocker thing, and she wouldn't stay asleep for longer than 20-30 minutes. she wouldn't stay on her back in the bassinet and hated the other 2.. now she's getting to where she'll sleep in then long enough for me to get a few things done but if i want her to sleep for a while, she has to be in bed right up against me. so far everything has been fine. mom instincts are real. i wake up at any and every tiny movement she makes and it makes feeding and changing easier through the night.

a lot of people do, I have a co sleeper bassinet though, I wouldn't be able to sleep comfortable with her in the bed cuz I'm afraid I'll squash her or accidentally hit her 😭
I don't understand how people put their newborns in a different room, I would have slept a total of 2 mins a night if I didn't have her next to me 🫠

I do! It’s easiest for breastfeeding and mom instinct is real. Like spidey senses 🤣🤣

Since I brought her home.

It’s way more common then you think! There something called the safe seven that brought me some comfort just knowing and there is a certain sleeping position that is the safest! https://llli.org/the-safe-sleep-seven/

I recently started sleeping w my son he won’t stay asleep in his bassinet plus i breastfeed so it’s way easier just to have him sleep next to me

I’ve co slept with all my kids they wouldn’t sleep if they weren’t on me.

I co sleep with my daughter but I can barely but when I’m very tired that bassinet she go lol
