Curious to know how many of us are co-sleeping? Did you plan it from the start?

Sleep

We never ever considered co sleeping. we’re in the UK and it isn’t discussed as an option. .

I got sick and couldn’t get out of bed so our girl slept next to me in bed and it was wonderful. From 16 weeks onwards we have bed shared as a family and we love it! she’s now 9 months old.We pop her to sleep in her cot but if she’s teething or can’t get back to sleep she will come into our bed between us and she falls fast asleep.

of my antenatal friends I’d say 40% co sleep. We’ve all said it wasn’t something we’d thought about before our babies were here.

I feel sad that it’s not allowed to be openly discussed in the UK and it is frowned upon.

Bedsharing has made our family bond even better. I didnt breastfeed and I feel bedsharing has compensated a little for this.
