I think you are right and I'm just angry at the behavior toward co-sleeping.
In the end, every family should do what fits them.
My request is to stop blaming co-sleeping and accept it as a valuable option, same value as sleep training.
- themaninthedark 4y agoI understand, it is frustrating seeing people blame and reject things are useful just because they are not used tho them or are foreign to their culture. Part of the reason we co-slept is because my wife was breastfeeding and it would have been unfair for her to have to get up, leave the room to take care of the baby. Also, I am good at adapting and quickly learnt to sleep through hunger cries...so probably for the best we were not doing the swap schedule.
- Fire-Dragon-DoL 4y agoMakes sense. I forgot about the problem with breastfeeding, since initially we were all in the same room and there was zero sleep, so it didn't matter much. By the time breastfeeding would have been annoying (for waking up), we were already co-sleeping. Our first 2 weeks were really, really bad, with the first week being at 2 hours in total (that is 2 hours of sleep for 168 hours), after a month and a half she started sleeping with us. The second one just slept with us from the beginning since knew all the tricks of it and worked really well the first time
