Wild CoSleeper

Does anyone co sleep with a wild little sleeper?? My baby is 5 months, and I’ve co slept with her since the beginning but now she’s mastered rolling over. I always keep a pillow on one side of the bed, her in the middle and me on the other end. (My so works nights)...I’m wondering if she’ll stop rolling over constantly or if I’ll have to stop co sleeping Bc she’s so wild... did anyone have to stop bc of this, or just take different precautions??

Did you do anything differently once you LO started sleeping so wild?

We put our bed on the floor, of she falls it is only a few inches instead of feet. 🤷‍♀️

I moved my bed up against the wall and I (try to) keep LO sleeping on that side. I also stuff a pillow between the bed and wall so he doesn’t bonk his head. 😊

I didn’t have room to have my bed anywhere but on the wall. I had a body pillow on that side. It worked for us too! Or maybe a bed rail on one side?

Oh yeah! I have to put a pillow at this feet just in case. Fortunately, he is boxed in with me and SO but still rolling and shifting. I just roll him back on his back but don’t worry too much. Sometimes mine wakes up upset that he’s on his tummy 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ Oh these babies and their growing!

I moved my bed against the wall and lined it with pillows and at the bottom/foot of the bed it where all his stuffed animals are. I sleep on the outside too. He moves so much in his sleep i have to contort myself so to not get kicked off the bed.

We still co sleep.. she's 2, she hogs the bed kicks rolls ect. She does sleep in her bed at naps but at night she likes to cuddle. It all started when my hubby cuddled her to sleep in our bed when she was a few months old an she's never wanted to leave. Lol

We co sleep; we’ve always had our son in between my SO and I. He rolls around, scoots himself up (hitting his head on the wall - we put pillows there now), and grabs my hair in the middle of the night. He likes to sleep on his stomach the most; we always start him off on his back but he rolls and that’s okay. He’s strong enough to pull himself up and move blankets/cry if he needs us. After we stopped swaddling him around 1 month - mommy’s bed became a go to so we could actually get some sleep.

My daughter is 15 months and has been co sleeping since birth. She flips everywhere, side to side, up and down. It’s like having a dancing zombie in bed.

My son is 2. We have been co sleeping since birth as well. & I second the dancing zombie. I own one too 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

Wait till they are deep asleep to co sleep. It's best to start crib soon for you and your husbands sake. I was co sleeping then sleep training in the crib at 7month and it's worked great this whole month. I do find it nice to co sleep but when he cant settle down he ends up taking the whole bed. When he stops fussing and my husband is leaving for work at an ungodly hour and I know he's deep asleep so when he ends up on his tummy and it doesnt bother him I just bring him into the bed and hes usually not as roly poly.

We’ve co-slept since the beginning and while she has only rolled off the bed twice, she is a wild sleeper. She’s 2 and rotates around like a clock. She starts with her head on the pillow and slowly works her way in a circle. Most of the time i wake up with a kick to the neck or back when i find her sideways it then she starts kicking and screaming when she can’t cover herself because her feet are on the pillow and her body is on the blankets. She also tries to sleep with her head UNDER my pillow. And she talks a lot in her sleep.

I have recently had to move my 8 month old from co sleeping into her own room as she was a wild mover too. Often I would somehow get her kicking me in the face or a arm whack me over the nose so unfortunately into her own bed she went

Mine is 2 months and ever since i brought him back from the hospital i co sleep. He could roll since he was born (would wake in the hospital to him smooshed against the holder). I can put him at one end of my bed and wake to him nuzzling and hitting me. He just wants to cuddle and its cute but i dont like getting pawed at

We co slept with both our kids

Just wait until she starts karate while sleeping my daughter is 5 and refuses to sleep in her twin size bed when she was first born since day 1 it was her crib and then her toddler bed than we moved and my husband was like just one night and now it’s a eternity of punches and kicks to the stomach, occasionally slap to the face, and let’s not forget I’m my daughter personal body pillow i got a king size bed because of this (my husband works nights so I get all of torture) so all the luck to you in getting your daughter into her own bed.
