anyone use one of these? Or did anyone else co-sleep? I haven't slept in the same bed as my fiance in almost 2 weeks, and thinking about trying the co-sleeping thing. What did you guys do?

Some say that co-sleeping is the best for an infant upto 6 months because they breath to your rythem and reduces sids.......i would get the side rails and let the baby sleep with you.

that seems expensive, id just get the rail, joseph used to sleep with me, but when they are in the bed i take all the blankets and stuff off the bed, and just the baby blanket for them, jordynne slept with me for a while to, she always used to fall asleep in my arms. she liked being propped up a little bit.

Cheyenne has slept in her crib, in her room, since we brought her home from the hospital. I didn't do co-sleeping because we only have a queen sized bed and I was scared to death that we would bump or her or roll over on her. We didn't have room for a crib in our room. This is what worked best for us, and she has done fine with it.

I used to put the bassinette right next to the bed, until 3-4 months then I put her in her crib & she was fine with it.

i had williams crib at the foot of my bed when he was first born, then next to my bed when we moved out. i was too scared to have him in my bed because of the cot death scares. he's always been in his own bed and he prefers it that way. he likes his own space

when val was younger she slept in her bassinet (next to my bed) for half the night and when she would wake up at like 3 or 4 in the morning to eat she would sleep with me the rest of the night cause i was too tired to put her back

now shes in her own crib in her own room every night...no matter how many tries it takes to put her to sleep

Brayden just slept in my bed and still does atleast half the night.

Go to any store, like Targets website and look for bed rails they will show you a picture of the ones the girls are talking about!
