s/o co-sleeping...
What do you consider "co-sleeping?"
This isn't a right or wrong debate... just a curiosity regarding definitions. And everyone is welcome to weigh in as well.
Like Ames previously said - she cosleeps with El. Ellie's only slept in her crib a handful of times, so yes, I would consider her a co-sleeper.
Now Sami - she wakes up in her crib around 5am then I bring her into bed with me and we sleep together until the alarm goes off at 7am, or until it's time to get up (depending on the day). Would this considered co-sleeping?
Please, discuss.
Re: s/o co-sleeping...
I don't know, I guess I would consider you a partial co-sleeper? I think there can be varying degrees.
We are full on co-sleepers. She sleeps in our bed at night, for naps, everything. We only put her in the crib if we need to do something in the bedroom that might wake her (like vacuum, or have sex. haha)
I'd say you're a part time co-sleeper too. I think that any form of baby sleeping in mom and dad's room is co-sleeping. If you were to hav e a matress in her room and sleep in there the majority of the time, I'd call you a co-sleeper too. .Co-sleeping IMO doesnt always = baby in mom n dad's bed.
I don't have kids but I think that co-sleeping would be having the baby or child in bed with you at bedtime and they sleep with you all night long. I would also say you are a part time co-sleeper MB
I don't think Jon and I would ever be able to co-sleep because we toss and turn too much. I would be so worried that I would squash the poor thing!
You'd be surprised at how aware you are of where your child is, even when you're asleep. I swear I know where Ellie is at all times!
Also, the main reason we started co-sleeping is because Guy works at night, and so it was easier for me to care for her at night by myself if I just kept her in the bed with me. He does sleep with us sometimes on the weekends, but sometimes he just falls asleep on the couch. I think if he were in there with us all the time, it might be too crowded.
ITA, Amelia. It already happens with our dogs.
It's so true.
