Best mattress for cosleeping

[Mildred01]

Hi there,

any recommendations for good mattresses for cosleeping?
mine is old and I’ve got bulging discs so it’s really not doing me any favours, neither is sleeping with a 2 year old but I don’t see that changing anytime soon!

I’ve seen a silentnight miracoil which looks like it might be good but it’s extra firm. Is that too hard for a toddler?
No idea if I need soft/ medium/ hard etc but just assumed firm would be good for my back but worried extra firm is too hard for the little one.

I don’t think memory foam is good for us but I have no clue so will take suggestions. I don’t have a huge budget either unfortunately- up to £500. Thank you!

Extra firm is better for you and for cosleeping too! Safer, just like in a cot.

Thank you so much @edgeware thats really helpful advice. I do feel bad because we have been sharing on an old mattress for a while but will get the one I had my eye on. My back can’t take it anymore!
