Article: Time To Abolish Cribs?

[Bathsheba]

Yep, when I really needed a deep sleep I would put my babies (mainly when they were newborns) into cradles that were placed right beside my side of the bed... so they could still hear me breathing... and me their breathing! I still call that co-sleeping We were like, 30cms away.

Honestly, I found this article just as inflamatory and bias 'against' cots as all those articles that display an extreme bias against co-sleeping. Really didn't think much of the article at all.

I have and do use both co-sleeping and seperate rooms (and cot) interchangably, depending on both myself and bubs. IMHO - promoting one method over another is a rediculous proposition. IT really depends on what works for the baby, the parents and the family as a whole.
