Lol I didn't plan to either..... And then I had her. And we're still cosleeping at 16 months 

Nope, I didn't co-sleep. It didn't bother me to have to get up and go get the baby to feed him.

I breast feed my two week.old and we do not co sleep. It can be done. I never wanted to co sleep.

My bed just isn't safe for a LO to be sleeping in. It's a massive pillow top and when you lay on it it almost caves in. If I moved even a little bit she could completely roll over and suffocate. I just don't feel safe doing it.

That's how SO is as well. He's a monster when he sleeps lol

This is what I will probably do.

Easy, but we were never 100% with it. Sometimes they went to their cribs when it was easier (naps, or even the start of bedtime usually.) So, they were already used to sleeping in their cribs. I was (am) a "do what works" kind of mom.

I guess it just takes a little extra effort to get out of bed to walk across the hall to her room eh lol.

I guess we'll have to see once she is here what works for us. I'm not against co sleeping, I'm just not comfortable with it. I also don't want to have to try and transition her to her crib when she's a year old and have all the issues I have seen friends have.

haha I know exactly how that goes! I swear SO squishes me and doesn't even realize it. The only thing I had to do was make sure I was warming a receiving blanket with my body heat to lay down because our sheets on the basinette were really thin and he would always wake up from the coldness of the basinette when I'd put him back.

Yea, that's understandable. Usually, I'd nurse them & then lay them in their cribs when they had fallen asleep. After they woke up again, I would generally keep them for a while in my bed. So, they almost always started out in their cribs & then came with me middle of the night.

Sounds like a good routine! lol.

Yep. Walking around the house like a zombie trying to nurse wasn't going to work for me, so I'd grab 'em and bring them to bed with me, nurse and fall asleep. Kept me sane.

Yes. I had to resume my classes when she was 5 days old. I needed every extra second of sleep possible.
