Is any one sleeping with their baby? I am a first time mom with a 3wk old boy. . I started having issues with him sleeping in his crib and it was very hard waking up every 1-2 hours with him and playing the tip toe game to try to get him to stay asleep. So I got lazy one weekend and slept with him in my living room on the couch and now thats the only way he will sleep and he will sleep 3-4 hours at a time. Anyone else having odd sleeping arangements? Am i ruining any possibility of getting him back in his crib?

My son is 6 weeks old and he sleeps WAY better when he is in my bed. Hes always slept pretty good, 3 hrs a night but now that he is older and sleeps in my bed he can sleep for 5 hrs. which is nice for me since I have to wake up in order to go to school in the mornings. I was also worried about him sleeping in his crib and when hes older in his own regular bed (my cousin slept with his mom till he was 9 or 10) but everyone reassured me that it would be ok and that hes young enough that he wont remember sleeping with me and he will be able to transition. I have started laying him in his crib at 10 when he falls asleep and then at 3 when he wakes up i feed him a bottle and i end up laying him down next to me holding the bottle in his mouth and when I wake up at 6 for school the bottle is laying in between the both of us empty. =)
