Hi Mamas! My baby and I have been co-sleeping since he turned 1 month old. He is now 5 months old and has been sleeping longer stretches. He still wakes up to feeds like 2-3 times at night, I simply just feed him while laying down and would fall asleep together.
Anyways, I just want to know how and when did you switch from cosleeping to baby sleeping in their own bed?
I was thinking for our family, that we will wait for him to sleep through the night before transferring him into his own bed. But I’m curious to know what other parents have done 🫶🏼.

We kept our baby girl in our bed with us until she was probably about 1? It's hard to remember when exactly we transitioned her to her floor bed because she stayed in our bedroom at night, just on a floor mattress, and most nights one of us would end up moving down there to cuddle with her if she woke up and wanted some cuddles. So I guess we were still technically cosleeping until more recently, she turned 2, and we moved her floor bed into her own room. So it was familiar to her, but now she pretty much sleeps by herself at night. She still wakes up sometimes and we have a baby monitor on her so usually I'll go in there and just offer some comfort and go right back to bed, but once in a while if I feel like cuddling her I'll still climb in her floor bed and cuddle with her lol. Also, I still mostly do her naps in our bed just because I like to nap with her and the big bed is more comfy. We're expecting baby #2 in September so I'm trying to soak up as many cuddles as I possibly can before I give birth 🩷🩵

Almost 3 and still co-sleeps with dad while I co-sleep with our newborn. Will continue until he asks for his own bed x

We co slept from 3 months to 8 months. Then she slept in her bed for about a month and a half regressed back to co sleeping from 9-10 months until 14 months. One night I was super exhausted and I just put her in her bed instead of with us and She slept through ever since then. She’s 18 months now and still doing great sleeping on her own. I’ll also add she’s in the room with us still just in her bed.

2.5years on and ‘still’ cosleeping in the big family floor bed. Pregnant with our second so shall see what happens but there is plenty of space so no plans to change what’s working.
