Co-Sleepers

    View as

    Co-sleeping, also known as shared sleeping or co-sleeping, is the practice of having your baby sleep in the same bed as you, but in their own space, such as a co-sleeper bed, a bassinet, or a simple mattress placed next to the parents' bed.

    Benefits of co-sleeping:

    • Promotes bonding: Physical contact and proximity promote the release of oxytocin, the love hormone, which strengthens the bond between the parent and the baby.
    • Easier breastfeeding: Co-sleeping facilitates night-time breastfeeding, as the baby is within reach for feeding. This can also increase the duration of breastfeeding.
    • More peaceful sleep for the baby: Feeling close to their parents reassures the baby and can help them feel more secure, which can lead to longer and more peaceful sleep.
    • More restful sleep for parents: Being close to the baby can allow you to calm and reassure them without having to get out of bed, which can help you fall asleep faster and get more restful sleep.

    Is co-sleeping safe for my baby?

    Yes, co-sleeping can be safe if safe practices are followed, such as using a co-sleeper bed and avoiding soft objects in the bed.

    At what age should I stop co-sleeping?

    There is no specific age to stop co-sleeping. The transition to independent sleep depends on the needs and development of each child.

    Does co-sleeping really help with breastfeeding?

    Yes, co-sleeping facilitates night-time breastfeeding by allowing the mother to respond quickly to her baby's needs without getting up.

    Will my baby become dependent on co-sleeping?

    It is possible that co-sleeping creates a sleep habit, but a gradual transition to independent sleep can help avoid excessive dependence.

    What are the risks of co-sleeping?

    The main risks of co-sleeping include accidental suffocation and falls. It is essential to follow safe practices to minimize these risks.

    Does co-sleeping really improve the baby's sleep?

    Yes, many parents report that co-sleeping reduces night-time crying and improves the quality of the baby's sleep by creating a secure environment.
