If you didn’t co-sleep (or didn’t co-sleep regularly or for long) do you feel like you missed out?

Not at all. I still got tons of snuggles and both babies contact napped. Even laying with them in bed was uncomfortable for me because the way you have to lay. I understand it’s a risk vs benefit situation, but I did what was recommended to keep my babies safe. And I will never be sad about that

Kind of, I always say to my partner that if it was 100% safe and I didn’t have to do the cuddle curl position my son would always be in bed with us lol I sometimes co-sleep, but only for a few hours. But I’m mostly glad we stuck to putting him in his crib because now he goes down in his crib no issues and it’ll be a lot easier to transition him to his own room.

Sometimes I do feel guilty (mostly when I’m shutting the door at night because I love spending time with him) but I’m a sahm and get cuddles and love during playtime so most of the time I’m touched out. On the other hand I’ve always put my baby to bed knowing he’s in the safest spot in the house and he’s been an amazing sleeper without cosleeping. I don’t think I would have half the sanity I have at the moment if we were cosleeping

No. I did contact naps with both of my kids a lot for their first 3 months of life. We also travel a lot over the summers and would co sleep with them during our trips. Now that they’re a bit older on Saturday we do “sleepover night” and each of us will sleep with one of them. I think it’s been a good balance. My husband works a lot, sometimes the only time we get together Monday-Friday is our time together in bed and I cherish it.

I Co sleep with mine until about 7 or 8 months but then I'm not doing it anymore I exclusively breastfeed from the breast so it's easier to co sleep and do that but as soon as they start eating food and not waking for as many night feeds they are out plus so far my boys have grown fast and grown mischievous fast you gotta kick them out when they start yanking hair and biting and climbing and such nope lol

Co slept a lot with my first. I did not want to do it again and made an effort not too,luckily she did not want to co sleep she likes her own sleep space 😊 Brought her in with me once when she was ill and she asked to go back to her bed 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’ve never coslept and I don’t feel like I missed out at all. My kids get lots of cuddles but when it’s bed time we’re all sleeping in our own spaces

We stopped co sleeping when she was around 6 months, we now co sleep again when the night terrors started and tbh it’s like sleeping with a drunk monkey 🤣

I started cosleeping month 4 due to the sleep regression (that never fully went away). I regret not cosleeping even earlier.

No 😭 we still cuddled but sleep is independent plus I sleep wild and so does their father we had a nap together here n there but it was for the best they learned to sleep independent from us

I co sleep only if I’m desperate for a good nights sleep or he’s just being super fussy (hard work 😅) which lately has been more times than not. I like it.. but wouldn’t say I love it.. like others say it’s just super uncomfortable and can’t sleep the way you want too.. I always feel like I’m not in a super deep sleep either as know baby is with me and I have to be careful. I would much rather him sleep in his cot At the moment if he’s not in my bed by morning then we’ve had a good night 😂🤦🏼‍♀️ xxx

Not at all - he slept solo from 3 months to 2.5 years and then suddenly started waking in the night. I now have to co sleep to get him back to sleep and he is such a noisy sleeper 😵‍💫

Never co slept, but sometimes I wish I could still cuddle my toddler to sleep. He stopped falling asleep on me before he turned 1.

I co slept with my first and now my second. I ebf both so its easier to just leave your boobs hanging out for baby to find at night. We both get better sleep that way. My 3 yr old still sleeps in our bed everynight along with my 6 months old.

I never co slept with either of my babies and it would honestly give me waaaay too much anxiety

I still cosleep with my 13 month old and I love it so much 😭 however, I definitely cannot wait to get my shoulders back because the wild positions I'm in when we both fall asleep while he's on my boob is insane lol I wouldn't stress, you have now and forever to cuddle and nap with them if you want to, just like you said you did it over a month ago and you enjoyed it, they'll never remmeber these moments, but you will as a mother, so honestly, do whatever works for you x
