Is sleeping like this with my baby unsafe, do you think?

I like sleeping with ds having his head on my arm/shoulder, and my arm around him IYSWIM. He sleeps really well like that and it keeps his head raised, which is good because of his blocked airways. Not sure whether there's a problem with that?

i slept with dd2 like that. I also lay her on a flattish pillow just to raise her up a bit so she wasn't too low and in danger of going 'under' my arm and body, iykwim. i liked hearing her breathe next to me. we slept with her on the edge side of the bed, not in the middle of me and dh. it was lovely

Seems a brilliant idea to me, if you don't suffer from a dead arm in the middle of the night. Very comforting. If it helps you feel good and enjoy your mite, keep it up!

Will carry on!
