Sleeping: we have the baby cot right next to our bed, that way I can get them close ASAP but still get my space. Babywearing- my first one didn't like it.

Maybe because our apartment was so small and we only had the one bedroom. But it was great for two months and then it was obvious she had to go. So we put her in a bassinet in our room. By then she wasn't waking up as much so I only had to get her once in the night.

I didn't nurse with #1, because she didn't want to, #2 I did and loved it. We co-sleep with each until they're done nursing or sleeping through the night which of course varies with each kid.

I'm considering getting a little mini co-sleeper so he can be really close and I won't have to get out of bed to nurse, but he won't actually be "in" the bed.

I got so much sleep when they were newborns, just nursing throughout the night without having to get up out of bed. my husband won't sleep with the baby though so eventually we'd move the baby to his/her crib and allow my husband back in bed with me. :)Dara @ Not In Jerseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16004533157267233128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6243435263450862437.post-36815025234464802952013-04-24T09:50:43.317-07:002013-04-24T09:50:43.317-07:00Oh my gosh, I could write a whole other post about...Oh my gosh, I could write a whole other post about all these & my thoughts on them haha. Especially now that I have Libby! Once you get pregnant, and then after you have the baby, the whole can of worms that is "parenting" is sprung open on you & it's overwhelming.
