Co-sleeping with two children

posted 28th Jun '12
Co-sleeping moms-

So, I got a co-sleeper, which is currently attached to my bed, to avoid any potential risks while having baby and my four year old in the same bed. But...we haven't really been using it. I've nixed my pillow and DD1 and daddy share the blanket while baby and I remain uncovered.

So far, it is working- DD1 likes to fall asleep snuggling the baby, then I move her to the other side, either on the far end near the wall, or in-between mommy and daddy.

But I'm still nervous about the "risks". Has anyone else co-slept with multiple children successfully? Tips?

I co-sleep with my two DD. One is 21 months old and the other almost 3 months old. We just keep DD1 next to DH then me then baby. Its worked out fine for us so far.

when we coslept w/a toddler an infant we just moved the toddler to the foot of the bed(sideways) as soon as she fell asleep. I am only 5ft tall so there is plenty of room at the foot of my bed

Co-sleeping with your children in one bed is good as long as you got to manage them all.

Co-sleeping with two children in a certain bed is not really bad. For me, it can develop strong bond between each other.
