We don\'t mind either. Don\'t tell our parents, they will scold us for sure. :) My 3 year old has started sneaking into bed too. We don\’t mind either.

Our babies creep into our bed early in the morning, and we wouldn't have it any other way. We only have a queen, so it gets quite cramped, but we just call it "cozy". ;) Love this post, thank you for sharing your heart, Angie. xo We have pillows in the middle too.

Colic, up constantly, etc. etc. When my husband started extensive business travel when she was 9 months old, I started bringing her into bed with me when she cried in the middle of the night. Guess what - we ALL started sleeping better. She apparently needed someone close to her and was able to soothe herself when she sensed someone near. My doctor, who was the dad of two colicky children, told me that he once hosted an Indian doctor in his home on a medical exchange. The Indian doctor was both horrified and amused that we expect very young children to sleep away from their parents and in completely separate rooms. He thought it was quite harsh. So... maybe there's more than one way to look at this issue. My daughter was a TERRIBLE sleeper as a baby.

My youngest is still in our bed although I'm weaning him to his own room. My daughter went to her own bed at 15 months and returned often. Now I'd say 5 out of 7 nights she comes climbs into our bed and lays down at the end like a dog. We don't mind you're only little once and its nice to know mum and dad are always there for cuddles.

I love four. When my now 10 yr old was four, I said those words so much that he didn\'t want to turn five. I loved five. I love all the years. Even the eventful ones my teen girls are giving me now.

My kids both slept in our room most nights till my son was 6 and my daughter JUST stopped sleeping in our room this summer. It sounds worse than it was though...The rules were they had to start off in their room and after the age of 5 they had to sleep either on the floor or the couch as the foot of our bed ;-) shhhh...I miss them to. I need another one so we can do it all over again! :-) LOL!! My kids both slept in our room most nights till my son was 6 and my daughter JUST stopped sleeping in our room this summer.
