    Red face Another co-sleeping question!

    Hi!

    My little man is 8 weeks and sleeps in his cot in his room (right next to ours). Throughout my pregnancy we were sure that we would co-sleep. Once he arrived we were co-sleeping for about 2 weeks but I was getting NO sleep at all because he is so noisy and I would wake to every sound and could not get into a deep sleep.

    Is it possible to start co-sleeping with an older baby? Or if I want to try again do I have to do it now so he gets used to it?
    Please help me be able to co-sleep! I feel so guilty putting him in another room!!

    Why not just move the cot to your room?
    It is still considered co-sleeping and it gives you the room to move and he will be less noisy next to you. It's easier for your husband to take a more active role in night care and you can always snuggle him in with you once he wakes the first time.
