My son is 2 in a few weeks and recently he's decided he likes sleeping in our bed. We sort of ignored it because it's cold, I'm 4 months pregnant so I have been very tired and he always starts off in his own bed (goes to sleep on his own) and only wakes up in the early hours.
However he has started to wait 10 minutes after bedtime and then start crying to go into our bed. when he goes in there I just leave him (don't lie down) and he goes off to sleep, so he isn't in any discomfort etc.
We've taken the sides off his cotbed incase he didn't like bars, no change. We've encouraged himk to cuddle a toy giraffe at night, it just means the giraffe has also come into out bed.
So my question is, to co sleepers, should I just ignore it and he'll grow out if it? What age did your kids decide to go back to their own bed? I'm not sure I can cope with 2 kids in my room (and a giraffe) once the baby is here.
