To be having a sneaky cuddle?

7mo DD fell asleep on me, i should take her to bed, but she's so warm and cuddley and isn't much of one for cuddles in the day...so i'm sitting here sniffing her head and stroking her fingers and enjoying being totally in love with her!

great time-wasters aren't they?

Awwwww. YANBU.

not being at all unreasonable!!

just been doing the same with my 8 year old who came to see me before she went to bed and fell asleep beside me

this hardly ever happens any more and I loved it when she was little and I could have her all to myself for hours on end

enjoy it!

Definately not, I'm jealous . My 6mth DS is fond of the handful of hair and puuuuuuull so if he was to fall asleep on me I'd definately savour a sneaky cuddle

YANBU. Today was my last full day with DS just the two of us before DS2 arrives next week and it wouldn't take much of a peep out of him for me to rush in and give him a cuddle at the moment.

YANBU!!

my oldest is 2.5 and i frequently maybe once a month if ive had a bad day, go into his room to cuddle him, his hairs so soft and smells gorgeous i feel great!

Dd is 11mnths and cuddling her is a no no, she isnt a cuddler, shes too busy or likes her bed, so when she fell asleep on my the other day just before nap time, i made dp take ds for his nap and sat with her for the whole 2hrs,

The best waste of a morning ever!

I can't help wanting to cuddle my ds (22mo)) all the time, he is so cuddly But he is constantly on the move!
So no YADNBU!! Make the most of it

Haunty27 · 27/10/2009 22:50

Mine are upstairs, one's on facebook or something and the other on xbox. If I were to try and get a cuddle they'd call a helpline lol.

Sheeesh.

Enjoy it while you can.

YANU at all. Every night I go into DS1's room, tuck him in and have a quick cuddle. Its the only time of day he's still enough.

diddl · 28/10/2009 08:43

YABU to even ask!

You should be cuddling whilst you can & inviting those who now have to make do with cats/rabbits to come round for a go!

girlafraid · 28/10/2009 08:48

Aaah! Just makes me want to weep a little tear of happiness thinking about lovely cuddles

jumpjockey · 28/10/2009 08:57

YANBU at all, one of my favourite parts of the day is just before bedtime when dd is all dopey and rests her head on my shoulder for a few minutes just breathing softly and smelling all freshly washed [sob]

EllieG · 28/10/2009 09:00

Oh I love love that time too! DD gets all flopsy and snuggles in and we read a story and then sing a song and she smells all lovely....
want to go home and have bedtime now....

Chrysanthemum5 · 28/10/2009 09:00

YAdefinitelyNBU, the DCs are 5 and 2 and I love sneaky cuddles when they are asleep. Enjoy it!

Fabster · 28/10/2009 09:03

So glad this was a bout sneaky cuddles with a baby and not an out of bounds man!

Enjoy it.

Mine still cuddle but the older two don't snuggle as long as the baby.
