So, Bonnie's having a bit of trouble resettling at night-time at the moment. She goes down OK, but wakes after 30 minutes or so. I think she's addicted to someone bouncing the hammock. Normally, she's sleeping fine, so I'm just putting her recent unsettled sleeping down to a phase she's going through.

Last night, I just couldn't be bothered bouncing the hammock for 10 minutes or whatever, so I chucked her in bed with me and we both slept soundly until the morning - it was great!

Here's the issue though. I'm not committed to co-sleeping full time. I'd rather use it as a last resort for when she's going through a difficult sleeping phase (like now).

Is co-sleeping on a part-time basis do-able? Or, will she develop a definate preference for sleeping next to me and make hammock settling even more difficult than it is now?

Are there any other part-time co-sleepers out there? Share your stories.
