Dd is 2.5 and although she usually goes down easily in her cot she wakes up numerous times in the night. She only ever needs a little reassurance and a cuddle but being up and down all night is really tiring.
The past few nights I have just let her come in bed with me and dh and she has slept really well albeit with her face pressed against mine :)
I quite like her sleeping with us and im considering just letting her sleep with us all the time. It feels very natural to me to have my young child sleep close to me. Dh still sleeps well and doesnt mind as such but feels we will really regret letting her get use to sleeping with us. The old 'rod for your own back' was muttered at one point.
I'm torn about what to do. I'd be really interested to hear others thoughts?
