When did you stop co sleeping?

For those who have Co slept with their little-uns.
What age did they finally make the choice to sleep in their own bed?

Well I still do and he’s 4 and a half. But he’s scrumptious and he really loves snuggles. And he’s my third and final…. And I really enjoy it

plus he wakes up a couple of times each night because he has sleep apnoea. I might have chosen differently if he slept through!

DD1 - regularly until 18 months ish, but she’s still in my bed when she can get away with it at 5.5.

DD2 slept with me every single night for 6 months, then suddenly wanted her own space and doesn’t want to cosleep at all (she’s 2.5).

Which is weird, as I spent ages battling to get DD1 into her cot or stay in her own bed, but I’d given up by DD2 and was fine with her cosleeping, had she wanted to.

DS2 was 9 before he stopped coming into my bed in the middle of the night.

Age 6 with my eldest and youngest is still in with me age 4, I don't mind it at all. Anything for more sleep in this house!

About 6 yo with no 1 then 7yo with no 2. We loved co- sleeping though. They always had bedrooms from 2yo, they just chose to sleep with us!

About 5- some point in reception as nobody was getting enough sleep…. DD was a wriggly star fish

DS1 slept really well as a baby. Sometime during COVID he started coming in to our bed...then so did his brother. Managed to get DS2 back I to his bed all night. DS1 kept coming in. It stopped us sleeping and started to make me ill. We had a serious conversation with just 11 year old DS that he needed to stay in his bed but that if he had a nightmare he could still come to us. Took a bit of an incentive scheme but he now sleeps in his own bed. Unless he has a nightmare. His brother also comes for bad dreams. They're both allowed/encouraged to come in for a morning cuddle
