We've been co-sleeping for 2 weeks and loving it. My MIL does not love it. She's seething! She keeps going on about the safety hazards, bought us cot sheets, and grilled us about when we were going to buy a cot. I told her it would more likely be a toddler bed cause we intend to co-sleep for awhile yet! She's tried dissuading us from doing it by telling me how noisy little boys can be - ha, I know! My newborn son is the noisiest sleeper and I LOVE IT. So bugger off woman!

What annoys me is that she seems to think we just woke up one day and said "Can't be bothered buying a cot, let's just let him sleep with us." Instead, we thought about it, talked about it, read about it, and assessed all the risks. Co-sleeping works for us, and we take it very seriously, like all our parenting decisions. Why does she think she has a right to tell us how bad co-sleeping is when she hasn't done her own research!

Grrrr. So, yeah, I feel your pain. Good luck hun.
