TANNER'S MOM wrote: We don't any more unless someone is really sick or dad isn't home. But all my kids have slept with me at one time or another. But I really like having my bed back?? What do you guys think?

DansMom replied: Still cosleeping---we have a king size bed. I don't think DH would tolerate the cosleeping if we didn't.

Nicole replied: We`ve always been real luck none of our kids sleep with us, now don`t get me wrong when they were real little i think each one of them spent a night or two with mom and dad, but other then that we were lucky

FroggyJK replied: Every now and then we let our son sleep with us. He loves to sleep with mommy and daddy. But if we let him do it too much we have trouble getting him to sleep in his own bed at all. It's nice to do occasionally but we also need our bed to ourselves.

Our daughter really had a hard time sleeping anywhere but her own bed. So she never sleeps in our bed.

When the new baby comes we will probably co-sleep for a while. It's just so much easier when I'm nursing.

Same here!

gr33n3y3z replied: we never allowed that to happen for reasons unknown
I know myself I move to much and if things get in my way I move it hard Ed will vouch for that

MomToMany replied: We let Ethan or Hannah come in bed with us if they wake up in the middle of the night. I'm not comfortable having a baby sleep with us, so Kayla doesn't.

kit_kats_mom replied: We did for a long time but now she's in her own bed in her room. We bring her to bed with us if she's ill or anything though.

I was just reading a tip from a mom on how to get your older kids to stay in their rooms and sleep though the night. One of the ideas was after they have 7 stickers for sleeping though the night, they get a slumber party with mom and/or dad.

I really never minded her being in our bed, liked it for the most part even, but it was her refusal to sleep anywhere else that got to me. I may institute the slumber party idea.

coasterqueen replied: We co-slept full time til DD was about a year old..then went to partial co-sleeping there after. I'd LOVE for her to sleep in her bed longer than a few hours at a time but it's just not happening .

darrylswifeskylersmom replied: skyler did sleep with us.. but then i or darryl kept rolling on him.. needless to say he sleeps safely in his crib

maestra replied:
Us too- we're just so happy when she actually sleeps that we're not even going to mess with where it is.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: We co slept with both of ours until they were a few months old. Maddie still likes to sleep with us. Ethan has always slept better and loves being in his crib.

A&A'smommy replied: We co sleep on demand I love it!

jdkjd replied: I co-slept with Bailey until about 4 months and still co-sleep part-time with Kiera (she's almost 8 months)-it's easier when nursing I've found than the crib.

kimberley replied: still co-sleeping and soooo tired! jade is an active sleeper and DH is getting fed up of being woken by her feet or hands whacking him in the face she won't sleep alone... ever.

ediep replied: We never co-slept, I was too paranoid that I'd crush him
Jason slept in a bassinette in my room for about 7-8 weeks, then he slept in his crib in his own room where he still sleeps now

Jamison'smama replied: still co-sleeping --have been for the last 2 years but her new "big girl" bed should arrive around the 20th and she will be moving over to her room---as a new bed mate will be arriving in December--we won't let her feel as if she is being replaced so we have to be very careful!!

ctymom replied: Being a SAHM, I'm always with the kids. Nighttime is my only time and I want to stretch out and be comfy! I had my kids with me when they were infants. I'm not one to rollover so they could sleep cuddled with me. But then that's it.... I need my stretchout comfy time.

Josie83 replied: we never coslept because I would be too worried Jason or I would crush her. SHe always slept in her cot right from when we brought her home from the hospital. She'll sometimes come in bed with us if she's upset or poorly, and on a morning she likes to get in with us as well. She always mounts one of us though that's the problem, she likes to lie on top of you! luckily Jason's usually the unlucky party! xx

Kaitlin'smom replied: I did co-sleep with kaitlin the first few months then got her to her own crib while I still slept in her room and eventually moved back to my bed, I liked sleeping with her, she wont sleep with us in bed she thinks its playtime

dreamweaver82 replied: Angel is still sleeping in bed with us. If I try to put her anywhere else she'll wake up in the middle of the night screaming for me. I'm hoping to get her out of it soon when we get the toddler bed because sleeping with her and trying to take care of the baby during the night is not going to work.

My2Beauties replied: Hanna only sleeps with us when she is sick or it's 6:00 in the morning and we have an hour before we have to wake up, we put her in the bed with us. She always falls back asleep with a bottle! I was always afraid of her being in the bed with us because I thought Brian would crush her since he moves a lot in his sleep and so do I but I sleep too light when she is in bed with us too which is bad sleep for me! I want to cuddle with Brian at night! She slept in her bassinette for the first 5 months of her life in our room right next to our bed but at 5 month I put her in her own room in her own crib..she'll sleep anywhere though!

jcc64 replied: Still co-sleeping with Corey- she doesn't even have a bed in her room.
Cary- would love to know how you got her out. While I love sleeping with her, I would also love a break once and awhile.

Boys r us replied: We let him come in our bed if he wakes up and comes to our room..which..happens almost every night...but I'm not fond of it! no one sleeps good when he's in there! Tanner co-slept in my bed until I got Pg with Brae, but he was flexible about it..if we needed a night to ourselves, it was no big deal for him to sleep in his own bed!

booey2 replied: Matthew slept with us til he was almost 3 and half, it started when he was 6months old and got sick and I was back to work and exhausted so it was better for all of us to do this. Once I was pg with Thomas, Matthew decided about a month before Thomas was born that it was time to sleep in his bed so that Thomas could sleep with us.(those were his words) It also helped that Matthew woke up once in the middle of the night and DH said enough is enough and Matthew never came back to our bed again.
With Thomas he never made it to our bed and still sleeps in his own bed.

3xsthefun replied: We never did co-sleep with Kaitlynn we were afraid of rolling over on her. Plus she wiggles around alot when she sleeps.

Maegan I co-slept with her up until 4 months ago. I couldn't get her to sleep in her own bed very good. Luckly she is getting alot better with sleeping in her bed at night.
