Madness ??

I have told DS he can sleep in the big bed tonight as Daddy is away. He replied, oh Goody we can have such fun and when you come to bed we can have a night night chat. Eh I don't think so.

In our house it's called 'Daddy being away snow-boarding'

Attachement parents let their Kids sleep in their bed, usually, until the Kids are ready to move to their own space...but no certain age of course!

SantasFattymumma · 18/12/2006 22:58

in mine its called " cant be bothered to move him as he is such a lump"

sleep, not slepp

OP posts:
BudaBauble · 19/12/2006 12:52

No - not having a go!

I just can't quite believe that I was the Mum who was determined that her baby would sleep in own cot/bed and now he doesn't.

I think I vaguely remember the thread you are talking about though - was it also about potty training very early?

very early potty training- elimination communication,,
