We co-sleep. DS is usually in the middle of DH and I. In a king bed. There is a new super king out now DH and I have separate blankets. This helps prevent DS slipping under. I sleep low in the bed if that makes sense so I can stay under the covers but not let them ride about DS. Still I am paranoid of SIDS so he also wears an apnoea monitor.
DS goes to sleep around 730-8pm and is on his own for at least an hour before we go to bed. We check him regularly. I like the mattress on the floor idea but we have not done it ourselves.
If DH wouldn't sleep in bed with us I'd have to seriously look at changing the arrangement but like me DH likes our babies in bed with us. He doesn't do any of the work as he is working fulltime and I am not working at present. Plus I am breastfeeding so don't see the point in both of us been awake.
