It's not necessarily the midwives preventing co-sleeping. I often hear 'the baby's been awake all night. Would go to sleep and wake up as soon as I put him down.' When suggestions are made to co-sleep, they don't want to "start bad habits". a lot of women are influenced by their mothers, partners etc, who don't approve of co-sleeping., thank God the influence on breast feeding isn't quite as strong as it used to be. It's strange, these little ones are expected to sleep on a hard, cold surface after been snuggled up listening to mum for months. If I remember right a co-sleeping policy was short and sweet. Mum had to be sedative free, the bedside up and bed as low as possible. Ken & Maureen Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED]
