Re: [ozmidwifery] Co-Sleeping

Gosh - you bought back memories of sleeping with my first child Jo. The feet pinching skin whilst burrowing under your back with the sharp toenail torture!!! Also the constant wanting to lie on top of you rather than next to - ie throwing the leg over incessantly. She still sleeps like this even

Helen   Don't feel silly, not all lizards lay eggs, some are live bearers and many reptiles have a bifid penis which could be mistaken for a tiny foot. Men are so heartless! However, women have better memories, just bide your time! Thanks for sharing this gem. Cheers   Jenny   Jennifer Camero

The most successful co-sleeping arrangements I have seen (as a homebirth midwife) are those households which have beds of the same height all across the room or ditto mattresses on the floor. The bedroom is the sleeping room and the other rooms are the nap, play, dressing rooms. Then everyone gets

Re: [ozmidwifery] Older Children's Sleep

Thank-you everyone. You have given me ideas and reassurance (which is lovely to hold onto right now). I will work my way through them all. Something has to work! I really wish co-sleeping worked for us, but it doesn't - I don't sleep well with my kids in the bed and often end up with muscle ac
