Safe co-sleeping

I’ve coslept with this baby since the day she came home, I also coslept with her older brother. Have a look at the lullaby trust for guidance on how to safely cosleep.
She sleeps a dream, and it really works for us 🥰

I have. It mainly tells you what not to do. What do you do to safely cosleep? 💕 X

Bedding down below my waist, c curl around baby to prevent rolling, no pillows around baby, and no swaddles ☺️

Yes! My 1 week old sleeps amazing when I hold him but I'm unable to put him in his next to me or moses basket without him waking up and wanting more milk. I am completely exhausted 😩

@Danielle thank you. What does baby wear?

This is a great Instagram xx

It’s quite warm in my house in the nights so she usually just wears a vest and sleepsuit. If it’s colder, you can use a sleeping bag tho ☺️

Yes, it's the only way I can get a proper night's sleep! I breastfeed in the side lying position which has really helped and she goes 4-5 hours between feeds at night. If baby is in bed, make sure there isn't a pillow, no covers or wraps around baby. I use a sleeping bag for baby 😊 xx

I do and did with my first too. It’s natural for babies to want to be close to us and it works great with breastfeeding 😊 I’m too lazy to get up and try to settle in a cot 😁

I have an adult size celular blanket I use to not have any duvet.

ooh I didn’t know you could get massive cellular blankets! Off to investigate that!

I've been doing the safe co-sleeping and my goodness. What a huge difference it has made!! 💞💞💞

Oh amazing, so glad it’s helped.
It was life changing for me.
My son is now 16m, sleeps in his own bed, mainly through the night, is still breastfed so clearly it’s not taught him any ‘bad habits’ despite what people may say!
You’ve got to do what’s best for you & baby at the time xx
