Hi Raelene,
We have a policy that allows co-sleeping.We had more concerns about
babies falling out of bed(did actually happen) rather than them being
smothered by mums so our policy just makes sure the bed rail is up  on
which ever side of mum the baby is sleeping with a pillow against the
bed rail so bub doesnt slip through.We regularly have bubs in bed with
mums .Works well for both mums and bubs.
All the best with getting a working policy

Hi everyone,
I need some help! I'm trying to formulate a policy regarding
co-sleeping and want to offer alternative sleeping arrangements for
mothers and babies whilst in hospital. Does anyone know of a "special"
cot that has been developed that allows the baby to sleep with mum but
in a separate cot that is attached to the main bed. I've seen pictures
of babies using a biliblanket in a cot attached to the bed in this way,
but can't find any information. Can you help.
Regards
Raelene George
