Hi Leeann,

Of my three babies, I found it absolutely necessary to co-sleep with my second. The others were all in the cot from day 1 with no problems, but she was a 2 hourly feeder - through the day and night - and it just exhausted me to continue to get up. So, she would sleep on a pillow, snuggled up against my body. It was lovely - and she would sleep much better - and so would I. We moved her into the cot in her own room the day after she turned 1 - and she never looked back!

People can sometimes be very judgemental when it comes to parenting - you need to do what works the best for you - after all - she won't be sleeping with you by the time she is 13 - be rest assured!!!!!! They are only little for such a very short time!!
