    Saying good-bye to co-sleeping. How do you do it?

    I'm not looking for ways to stop the boys from wanting to co-sleep. I'm just wondering how you adjusted back to sleeping without your baby after co-sleeping.
    Yasin is almost 5 and he still sleeps with one of us for the last few hours of about 4 nights a week. Imran still comes into my bed nearly every night. I love snuggling him so much, most nights I don't sleep soundly until he has woken up for a sook and come into my bed. DH is just as bad as me. At the first squeak from either of them he's off for a snuggle lol.
    I hope it's a while in the future but once your babies stopped co-sleeping how long was it until you adjusted to not having them in your bed?

    Same here....

    Sometimes I know I'll miss it - but other times I find it hard being woken by the baby-faced stand over merchant sleepily growling "mooove OVVVEERR"

    We wonder it too, Bron. I'll miss waking up with no room, no blankets and a foot in my stomach!

    Seriously though, the snuggles are great. I'll just have to snuggle DP again in the morning if DD stops coming in!
