im cosleepng with my 7 month old. we both like it, he also sleeps on my bed to nap during the day but hes starting to crawl and im worried he might launch himself off the bed. im hoping he'll wake up slowly so it dousnt happen. also im thinking of having another babe and dont know how to fit this in. i do have his cot in a side car arrangement but hes still not that keen. i spoke to the hv about it and she suggested controled crying which i just dont agree with and sent me this stupid leaflet about the dangers of sleeping with your baby like im a complete imbasile.

Sorry what don't you know how to fit in about having another baby? I still co-sleep with my 6 month old and he rolls about everywhere now, fell off the bed once but I had lots of pillows down by the side of it so he didn't hurt himself.

By the time you had another baby your son would be at least 16mo. That's a whole different situation. He might be quite happy in his cot by then.
