Re: Cosleeping

[Christina & Damien]

I am all for co-sleeping and have done it at times with my 2 babes. I believe that women in hospital who have had narcotics post caesarean should be supervised while the baby is in the bed/feeding. The recommendations about smoking, recreational drugs etc, is relevant in this case, as narcotics will make the mother especially drowsy.
