My baby is currently really poorly with an ear infection and might need to be admitted to the children’s hospital but we’ve coslept since birth (now 4.5 months). I don’t think he’d sleep without contact. Any cosleeper a have any advice of how to handle/do cosleeping whilst in hospital with babe?

Sorry to hear your little one is sick OP, hope things improve soon.
I spent a week last week in A&E with my 8 month old and we co slept on the single bed. The cot was used for storage!
none of the nurses said anything about it to me. X

typo, meant to say night* not week. Thankfully we were only there for one night.

My son (2) was in the HDU for one night, there are no parent beds there. He was pretty confused as to what was going on so I actually just got into his bed and stayed there all night. No one said anything! Perhaps HDU is a bit different as the babies and children there are really quite poorly/sedated and there for a long time, so I think generally parents go home at night. We were lucky it was a short term thing
