I co slept with DC1 and I am now co sleeping with newborn DC2. I thought it was all going fine until I read a recent thread about wether co sleeping was a age thing to do or not. The general theme seemed to be it was a good thing to do as long as it was done safely. But I have questions about a couple of the safe sleeping advice given-
Baby should sleep next to the breastfeeding mother, not the father - how does this work if you are swapping the boob you are feeding from during the night? For 50% of the time DC is sleeping between me and DH - is this wrong?
The baby shouldn't be near pillows/duvets - how do you work this one? Do you get rid of all the pillows and blankets on the bed? Or can someone give me a good technique to use about how to place the baby in the bed please?
Thank you!
