Excellent, article. It always amazes me that people take these "experts" seriously.

I agree with this article. I think that there are so many things like co-sleeping that the "experts" have tried turning Americans away from, and I believe in the big scheme of things is a detriment to society.

Wish I had a bed big enough to fit my whole family in it!

Co-sleeping makes total sense. Instinctively.

A bed can never be big enough :)

:D almost right. Dimension of his side is correct. Her side 10% more as his side. The rest belongs to our daughter (in a 2m by 2m bed) at the moment. Funnily in the van the bed is only 1.6m by 2m and his side has the same dimension, hers side shrink's more to his the dimension to his side.
I was used to 1.8x2 for me alone (long time) before. Now I wonder if I ever will get more then 60cm out for me.

edit: busy makes me to comment on my own post :/

would you fit a bunkbed in the van?

No, no way. How the van is for living in it, 1.6m is already tiny :/
And the design of the van is that everything is not higher then 80cm (except one board), so up it looks bigger and more spacious. The Idea is to switch on day to a bus, with two proper beds :)
But first we have to recover and get some business rolling to roll on.
Bed in the van

It's actually a total mystery how this happens, you go to sleep with enough room and awake only a couple cm from rolling out of bed.. It takes a lot of effort to push someone to the edge of a bed

:D Sometimes, when I go later to sleep it's even worst. Tonight (or better in the morning) there was only the edge left for me. But I start to come up with the theory that body height is anti-proportional to the weight occupied in bed. So if I would shrink I could get a bigger share in the bed.

Good Article. I think Mothers cant b sleeping without Small babies. Its an against of Nature. All positive persons never think against ​NATURE.

Very good article, nowadays it is recommended to practice co-sleeping or family bed, I have a baby of 6 months and I still sleep with her.

Room sharing is recommended for at least the first 6 months yes, though we are told bed sharing is dangerous even though the evidence points to it actually being safest under natural circumstances and it makes sense that a baby should be in direct sensory perception of its parents. It makes no sense at all to put our babies in separate rooms by the time they are only 1 which is recommended, it's not natural.

Thanks for this good article. I think the most important thing is to do as the parents and the child feel best and not listen too much on experts. My little son sleeps in his own room and since then me and my wife sleep much better and so does he. Before he slept in his own crib beside our bed and we all woke up lots of times during night and were exhausted in the morning. However, that doesn't mean that this has to be the best solution for anyone else.

It can be tough making decisions about how to best raise kids especially with a million different opinions by others about what is best for them. The key word you used here was feel, I think we all need to learn how to tune into the intelligence of nature and do what we feel is authentically best despite what ever train of thought we have acquired from external information.

Thank you very much for telling me these. ....

Nice information keep it up

Co sleeping seems dangerous. I agree. But how many people are co sleeping on a bed nowadays.

Hundreds and thousands and millions, especially across Asia.

@skyhooks yes sleeping with parents will make better bond between children and parents mostly indians will sleep with there children's at certain age

@skyhooks. honestly an interesting read. In the aim of making them brave parents are making their children afraid. Interesting. Will keep that in mind.

Excellent article, I'm in that dilemma. Thanks for sharing your experience!

@skyhooks you were flagged by a worthless gang of trolls, so, I gave you an upvote to counteract it! Enjoy!!
