Co Sleeping at 3 yrs

Up until August DD slept in her cot all night, but since transitioning to a toddler bed she gets up every night at some point and gets into our bed. She’s 3.5. When she’s gets in with us she sleeps well. We tried stickers and charts to encourage her to stay in her Bec but it’s never worked. She’s having a tough time with preschool atm, so I’m tempted just to let this ride until she’s less stressed out about it.
just wondering how many people were co-sleeping with their children at this age?

If you're all getting a good night sleep and happy to co sleep id leave her be! I've been cosleeping since 6mo and DD is now almost 5. We're happy to do so. She does start off in her own bed and comes into us in the middle of the night

tbh we're happy for the extra body heat and cuddles!

My 4yo joins us most nights. I have no interest in stopping her, presuming she’ll stop when she’s ready. I don’t mind at all! If she was disturbing us then maybe but I actually like the reassurance that if anything was wrong she’d come through and tell me

My 3.5yr old comes into my bed every night. Don't know why. But he comes through, I pull him up and he falls straight back to sleep.
I don't mind it and I do think they are just little once. I used to hate being scared in my room but my parents always sent me back :(
So I will never send my son back because I know how it feels.

If you want her out of your bed take her back everytime. If you're not bothered, carry on.
