Guest guest Posted March 17, 1999 Report Share Posted March 17, 1999 Tea has been sleeping with me since the day she was born. Even in the hospital. I have never slept a night without her. Sometimes I wonder who needs to sleep with who. I am sure that she could sleep on her own. I just love being close to her. Also when she wakes for a feeding it is so easy. I don't really have to wake up. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and find that she has grabbed my breast and shoved it in to her mouth and is eating. I never thought that floppy breasts would have an up side. In the morning she often wakes me by pulling on my face and saying " aey " which in 7 month old Tea language means ...Hey mommy wake up. Just wanted to share. ~shera (26 almost / one child/single parent) --- Duncan wrote: > > > > Our family bed is actually the mommy and baby bed too. > DH doesn't think there is enough room for all three of > us so has been sleeping in the loft.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 1999 Report Share Posted March 18, 1999 Shera... My little girl Kaitlyn has slept in my bed since she came home from the hospital and I love her sleeping with me. Sometimes I wonder if I keep her in my bed for me instead of for her. I also agree that it makes feeding very easy... How hold is your baby? Kaitlyn is only 2 months. She hasn't grabbed my breast and put it in her mouth yet. ) But I'm sure she will soon enough Kristi ( single mom of Kaitlyn 1/13/99) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
