Lol, We never bed shared but LO did room share with us until he was like 14 months. I finally gave up and just started sleeping topless . Cut out an extra step
7,312,902
mommit
Oh boy does this bring me back
7,312,903
mommit
To who ever posted this thank you!
7,312,904

Get him out of your bed, you’re creating a problem it will be really hard to walk back.
7,312,905

This is me my LO repeatedly rolls his head on me until I help him latch then I pass back out lol

The mommy wars in this comment section is disgusting.
7,312,907
mommit
This is why I kicked out both babies as soon as I night weaned. This is no way to sleep. If you want s functioning mama, give mama sleep!

Love this so much

God that looks miserable lol, so thankful my little guy sleeps well in his own crib, in his own room
7,312,911

All I could think of was that baby needs some sleep training. Or the very least, a pacifier.
7,312,912

Are you supposed to sleep in the same bed with a baby this young? Seems like a SIDS risk
7,312,913

This is me

Exceptionally cute, snuggly baby who can NOT connect sleep cycles without boob. Honestly, I’ve just had three nights of this, no way on earth I could do it every single night.
7,312,916

Having a nursling is a lot of work

I feel like someone snuck into my bedroom and took a video. SMH this is every night. Haven’t slept good since before I was pregnant
7,312,918
mommit
I thought I had it bad! I’m so glad my son doesn’t wake up as often as this anymore. I still get kicked and slapped and head butted all night long though.
7,312,919
mommit
This is exactly how mine was when we co slept. She sleeps in her own room now and we are having a much easier time
7,312,920
mommit
This is really cute! That little squirmy wormy is precious. I bed shared with me kid but they didn't wake up so frequently so we all got much better sleep.
7,312,921
mommit
I know it’s exhausting but I remember this with my first baby and I miss every second of it. I tried to get out second baby to co-sleep and he just wasn’t interested and stopped nursing at 10 months. This mom is doing amazing!!

This is my life. I’m just now trying to night wean my 3yo. It is not going well. Been talking about “no ma milk until the sun rises” for two months but she wakes and screams for it at least once a night. I haven’t slept in 6 years basically. If she isn’t waking me up she is Star-fishing across the whole bed. How can a ...

Aaaaaand this is why we don't co-sleep in my house.

Looks super exhausting
7,312,929

It makes me twitchy lol And I have had kids in and out of my bed for 6 years. I am much happier with everyone in their own rooms for sleep, for sure.
7,312,930
mommit
I did not notice the dad there until this comment made me go back and look for him
7,312,931

Omg I know. Those little hands playing with their hair while feeding - Sooo precious.
7,312,932
mommit
Mine is 10 months and I was really surprised to wake up to him latched on without my help a few nights ago
7,312,933
mommit
Remember to switch sides!!! I like sleeping on one side and so I'd always use that boob. I'd wake up with the other fully engorged and leaking. I would wake up and switch places with baby multiple times to prevent it
7,312,934
mommit
I don’t know about anyone else who co-sleeps but for me: my LO didn’t sleep badly because we co-slept, we co-slept because she slept badly. Co-sleeping was the only way I got any sleep at all.
7,312,935
mommit
For me it was the choice between a) no sleep at all all night or b) cosleep with boobs out and get sleep even if disrupted one. I took b. That's what happens when ,our baby absolutely refuses pacifiers and wants your nipple instead
7,312,936
mommit
A lot of parents who co-sleep did/do because of necessity, it wasn’t planned.
7,312,937
mommit
Biiiiig same. I don’t know how people do this.
7,312,938
mommit
Same. We kicked the cats out in anticipation of room sharing and even now with no babies in my room they are not allowed back in. I love the snuggles but I too am very aware of who is next to me and wake up super sore after being stuck in one position for much too long.

It’s not selfish to want everyone to get the sleep they need.

I don't think it's selfish to want your brain to work properly so you have the energy to care for them the next day?

I sleep better bc we co sleep ! That kids moves and wakes up a lot. Mine are more on the unicorn side of that aspect, but I give all the credit to co sleeping and breastfeeding.
7,312,944

That baby knows what’s up!
7,312,945

Aaaw. Now I feel better about sleeping between my kids. They don't give me food, but I think they love me

Don’t wake up enough to remember more than like twice a night anymore, but he’s right there to cuddle whenever I want. *And* I wake up every morning with empty boobs and a baby smiling in my face and ‘kissing’ me (dragging his open mouth across my cheeks and biting my chin). Sleeping topless defin...

Can actually confirm, because I know whose content this is . The comment section of this video was vicious. Do better Reddit!
7,312,951
mommit
Ikr, was thinking the same about the nightcap. It’s such a genius idea to prevent hair from falling on the pillow or getting it pulled by little grabby hands.
7,312,952
mommit
We gave up on trying to get my daughter to sleep on her own bed bc husband always fell asleep with her and he is a heavy sleeper. We rather sleep with both kids on the bed than give up the cuddles, lol.
7,312,953
mommit
Breastfed on demand babies/toddlers tend to be like this. My son used to stay latched on almost all night until I weaned him just after he turned 2. It's not for food, more for comfort/stay asleep .
7,312,954
mommit
You’re right. An experienced night nanny told us that at 7 months old, almost all babies have the stomach capacity to sleep through the night. If they’re hungry, it’s because they aren’t getting enough calories during the day. Our son was hungry and she convinced us he had a tongue tie and to see a pediatric dentist. ...
7,312,955
mommit
This looks more like suckling for soothing rather than feeding. Most kids past 6 months don’t need to feed more than once a night.
7,312,956
mommit
When my son was about 13 months, he was teething hard and also had his first cold so we coslept. He was sleeping through the night at 2 months but once we started cosleeping he was like the baby in this video. Latched to my boob almost all night. Once we got him back into his crib, he slep fine without needing motn fee...
7,312,957
mommit
It’s different if you’re actually feeding from the breast. My oldest was formula fed and we coslept. After about 8 months she slept through the night (still in bed with me). My current baby is breast fed and is up constantly for the the breast. He’s not even fully hungry as he’s not doing a full feeding. Just wants the...
7,312,958
mommit
Truly depends on the kids and their personality and preferences. By 13 months, my oldest was putting himself to sleep and sleeping through the night in his own bed in his own room. My second, at the same age, co-sleeping and still up multiple times each night to nurse.
7,312,959
mommit
I guess it depends on the kid? My 18mo definitely sleeps better than that ! Or I don't remember who knows
7,312,960
mommit
Same here. We do co-sleep when we’re camping and little dude kicks the shit out of everyone.
7,312,961
mommit
most people cosleep because otherwise their kid doesn’t sleep at all :(
7,312,962
mommit
Same.
7,312,963
mommit
Breasts are the original ‘pacifiers’. Every baby and situation is different and it is not abnormal for a baby to continue nursing overnight after 1 year old. How magical it is to be able to give your baby what they need without societal pressures to sttn etc stopping you.

Baby’s 17 months old so SIDS risk is way down
7,312,967
mommit
No not until two at least as the adult mattress is a risk in and of itself. Even then even small adults are massive compared to toddlers. So that’s also a risk to keep in mind.

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 571,339,471 comments, and only 118,366 of them were in alphabetical order.

It’s so weird having your baby help themselves to a snack.
7,312,970
mommit
Yup. Even now that my son is 3 and "sleeps in his own bed"... how I wake up every morning with toddler toes in my ribs is beyond me. I never notice him coming in the middle of the night and wake up astonished every morning. Lol
7,312,971
mommit
Same. Cosleeping got us all more sleep.
7,312,972
mommit
Oh I totally understand. Our bodies and needs are all different. I'm so thankful my baby didn't need me to sleep because I would not have handled that well at all! Plus my husband is a violent sleeper (don't get accidentally punched when he rolls over and slings his arm!) Dang we would have been a really cranky family!...
7,312,973
mommit
Same. Was not the plan, but was the only way to get adequate sleep
7,312,974
mommit
Same. My two babies even at the hospital didn’t want to sleep in the crib. When I gave birth to my 2nd my 1st cried and didn’t sleep until I’m beside her.

Funny, mine is the opposite. Everyone sleeps like garbage when we cosleep, including the little one.

100%. If I had a choice, I wouldn't have done it. It was either co-sleep or no-sleep
7,312,978

I'm in the same boat. 1.5 month old refusing pacifiers and bottles. Only wants boob. Literally on my boob sucking to sleep right now lol
7,312,979
mommit
Man, you again? Yes, that baby was 17 months old in this video. Yes, there was reason for them to be waking multiple times a night. There was a reason why the baby wasn’t getting full feeds. But you know what? Sometimes there is no discernible medical reason why a baby wakes frequently and it isn’t because the parent ...
7,312,980
mommit
this is such a judgy comment. Like yeah your baby sleeps well, congratulations. Doesnt mean that baby isn’t getting their proper nutrients through other feedings. It just means their needs are different than your child’s. And thats ok considering they are not your child.
7,312,981
mommit
I was just thinking that! Maybe the baby is teething or sick? Idk. My 2nd kid is 3 1/2 months and sleeps better than this. Not all kids are the same but that baby seems to wake and fuss a little too much.
7,312,982
mommit
Most parents who don’t co-sleep have the baby in their room until about 3-6 months. After that age, they should only need about one night feed. Additional wake ups don’t usually require feeding for hunger reasons, the baby just needs to fall back asleep. Some parents do that with the boob, but others use a thumb or pac...

This is one of the most precious videos I've ever seen! Whose content is it? I'm curious the back story/why the time lapsed it/was it part of a larger story etc etc. Though I couldn't do this, I have mad admiration for her and her cuddly baby.
7,312,986

Oh wow. We fed by demand too, it was just by bottle. They didn't demand it all night long by that point, but I guess if I was co sleeping and it was right there maybe they would have.

Same. Mine has developmental delays and did it for falling asleep until 4 and 4 months. My kid did wean themself when they were ready.

That sounds frustrating!! I had a similarly frustrating experience.. I knew my baby wasn't getting any milk. I had 4 lactation consultants all insisting that it was completely fine and him crying was normal. But I just KNEW. So on day 5, over the phone, they told me to feed him for 20 min on each side, then pump 20 min...

I’m so sorry you had that experience, and unfortunately it’s an incredibly common one. I was told by three board-certified pediatricians that my son didn’t have ties, and spoiler alert, he did. So did my daughter. I personally know a lot of parents who have some variation of this experience, including one who child was...

This drives me up the wall! I don’t mind nursing for nourishment but comfort suckling goes on and on and irritates me so much!

7,312,991
mommit
I thought so
7,312,992
mommit
To each their own I guess. Maybe it also depends on what kind of sleeper you are. I can’t sleep when anybody touches me and take ages to fall back asleep. Personally, I found it more magical for the whole family to be able to sleep uninterrupted and be fully rested and present for togetherness during the day.
7,312,993
mommit
I’m glad it was magical for you. I wish I could have had that. I tried so hard for so many months, knowing I was missing out on something incredible. It made me so depressed as a new mom.

by definition it also means a person or thing that pacifies someone or something. I have a 5 month old that contact naps and i often refer to my self as a human mattress, because it's true and funny. If this is what "offends" you, life must knock you on your ass daily.
7,312,996

This sounds just like the “there’s no medal for a natural birth” statements. There’s nothing wrong with sleep training but it’s not for everyone. There are absolute benefits for cosleeping and night nursing babies and toddlers.

That’s kinda a shitty comment. There is not an age where breastfeeding stops being beneficial. Period. The average weaning age outside of countries where boobs are stigmatized is 5 years old. The WHO recommends a minimum of 2 years. All babies need formula or breastmilk till a minimum of 12 months. Every family is di...

Actually, there it’s pretty awesome to breastfeed your baby for any length of time. This is like the “no gold star” comments about labor. It says more about the person saying it than whom they’re speaking of.

exactly, i don't know why this got downvoted. That baby and mom are not getting the sleep they should. And if she has to work in the morning, yikes.
