Re: [ozmidwifery] sleep stuff

I wish you all the best Cas - lets hope you can find a solution that works for all of you. Interesting you mentioned your husband has a very traditional outlook on the sleep issue - if more people were more "traditional" they would see that traditionally we had our babies in bed. It is a relatively

Thanks for your replies. I am going to move the cot back into our room and try the side car thing. I've managed to talk hubby into giving it a go although he sees it a backwards step... His tradition outlook is quite frustrating at times. Anyway, I'll let you all know how I get on. Pinky I don't

Dear Cas, the good thing about this is you have learnt that you are def not alone in this one. We also have done the whole "help, what do we do?" sleep thing. Our third boy ended up being our first co-sleeper, partly because we wanted to, but mostly just to sleep. Well, he broke all the rules o
