I cosleep (bedshare) with my 7 month but not by choice anymore haha (I’m over it). I feel so alone in my cosleeping. How many people here cosleep? My baby boy won’t even sleep in the next to me crib, absolutely cannot stand it and I don’t know what to do. Weve tried sleep training him in the crib but it did not work at all and made him more afraid. I’m hoping to move him to his cot before I start work in a couple months! Is that an impossible task??

I bedshare with my 7month old daughter. I’ve tried it all, nothing has worked well enough that she’s not crying her little heart out and I can’t bare to let her cry for even 5 minutes. But I actually love having her in bed with me, my other works until midnight 6days a week so I quite like her company and I don’t have to put up with my partners snoring 😂 however, it isn’t sustainable I know. I’m hoping one day she will just hop out my bed and into her cot happily with nobody having to lose sleep or cry 😂

Do you breastfeed?
yup!

i did up until about 4 months when he started sleeping on his own i still occasionally do it when he won’t settle ect.. x

With my first we co slept till 1 year because she hated her cot
With this baby we do co sleep but just put her in a toddler bed as she also hates her cot so she sleep first half in her bed and rest with me now as it does get alot having her on me 24/7 now x

I bedshare with my 7 month old. I would love if he slept in his cot because then I wouldn't be stuck in my room for every nap and have to go to bed when he does but 🤷

I used to calculate how many minutes exactly after sleeping while breastfeeding I can put her in her bed and she doesn't wake up it was 9
The midwife told me to find this amount of time where she is still going to sleep so when she starts the 2nd sleep cycle she is the same place so she doesn't wake up
With aloooot of playing in the day time in her bed
And bump first easy if you are saying a prayer keep saying it till after you put your baby ... may allah help you its very hard
