Anyone doing it? I'm interested to know how you're coping with it.

Oscar is in bed with us... we're getting little rest!

I'm still co-sleeping. Am getting on great with it, Seren wakes up but quickly goes back to sleep.
 
when you say co-sleeping does it mean in your bed with you and partner using your pillows blanket ect? or joining cot and bed together?

Oscar too really, but I've got tennis-elbow now and I think it's from how I lie with my arm. I'm just so uncomfy... how do you do it Beanie? How do you sleep ie. which side? I'm restricted to my left side as Oscar tends to help himself to boobie during the night. I don't mind co-sleeping... just dying to get comfy and rest!

Dionne... in our bed with his own blanket and our cover over very slightly. Our bed is a super king, but i still end up sleeping on no more than a cm of it...... my body is aching.

super king... posh bird

Harley comes in with me from 7am untill he wont let me sleep any longer i like the idea of being close ect but im to much of a heavy sleeper to co-sleep
 
Hi

Just last week is when Kiara stopped sleeping in the bed with us Bernies uncle moved so she has her room now personally its the best thing now taht shes older she sleeps through the night now which before she kept waking up when i moved even slightly and she ate her way through the night, now she sleeps 8-9 hours eats and goes back to bed. Once she wakes up at 6 i put her in bed as Bernie is gone to work and i get a bit of extra sleep

i never co-slept when i had kurt, i did with beth though i think i may have made a rod for my own back as she is very clingy now (not that id change it coz i love it) even now that shes in her own room with her own bed when she wakes up in the night she comes and gets in our bed to go back to sleep. I said i wasnt going to do it with rubie as i wanted my bed back to myself :lol: needless to stay i didnt stick to it and she has been in bed with us for the past 3 nights :lol: i have found both beth and rubie to be much happier contented children than kurt was though i dont know whether the cosleeping has anything to do with it though but thats the only thing i have done differently :think:
 
i iwish i could but Braydon the fatty dont like it decdes sharing his bed is no good lol
 
joshua used to sleep much better in our bed, but liam is no different. i might have done that if i was still bf. but when he is tired liam likes to be left to himself.
 
It depends Emilia. I usually sleep on my right side as Seren is to the left of me but I started to get a sore shoulder so now I move Seren to the other side if I am in pain. Not a massive fan of doing so if OH is in bed with us as I do worry he won't be as aware of her as me but so far all has been ok, though it is amazing how much room such a small person can take up. I do sometimes sleep on my back as well but usually wake up on my side, Ii guess thats how mums sleep with their babies. Would changing sides with OH help?

Just looked in on Seren, she is asleep in my bed and looks so cuddly.
 
Oscar goes to sleep in his cot until midnight - sometimes he wakes sooner. He wakes several times and wants fed. Eventually I give in and take him into bed. I sleep on the right with Oscar in the middle and DH on the far left.

I tend to turn my back on Oscar from time to time ( in bed that is), but it seems that everytime I do that - he wakes up and start sucking my pj's on my back! :rotfl: Silly boy...

How often does Seren wake up for nibbles at night? Oscars' habits vary, but I would guess every hour! :shock:

:rotfl: at Oscar sucking on your back.

Seren wakes up once between 12 and 2 but then will sleep til 5.30-6. She was waking up every 2 hours but I think that was from her viral infection, seems to have calmed down now.

She went her cot last night in her own room last night and didn't wake til 3. I ma very lucky in that she will go to sleep in her cot, or in our bed and it doesn't phase her.
 
Aww what a good girl you have! Must say, my wee boy is still asleep in his cot. :cheer:

DH and I are watching CRACKER in between replies on here!
Should get to bed - it's getting late!

Nite nite

Cracker - great series!!!!

Have just seen your photos of Oscar, is it possible for him to get any cuter. My OH says he is very cute and he would be happy for his little girl to marry him :wink:
 
Nothing a few tonnes of Tunnocks can't sort!! Deliver and he's all yours!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

:rotfl: they are on their way (but you have to come too as he is a booby monster)
 
Aaron has started getting into bed with me now as he won't really stay in his cot. I've tried for hours to keep putting him back but it doesn't work so I just let him stay with us. He'll go to bed in his cot at around 8pm and then sleeps till 1am sometimes a few more hours but never past 3am and then he's in with me till about 6am. I was so fed up of being grumpy because of never sleeping and Aaron not going in his cot I just found this easier! Hoping when he gets his own room it will be better then.
 
Ha Ha can I just say............

Im 25 and yesturday morning after my night shift I went to my mum & dad's to sleep as there doing building works round my place and it wakes me up, anyway, I got home 7.10am and dad had gone to work, so I climbed in to bed with my mum and had a quick cuddle, then fell asleep and she got up for work. PMSL, you are never to old for cuddles from your mum IMO

aww that is so cute. My fave time used to be weekends where me and my sis would jump into bed with mum whilst dad made the toast and cuppas. I really miss those times, but love the fact I have my own family to do it with, even though she hogs the whole bed and now she is mobile nothing is safe :D
