Every new and expecting parent needs to be aware of what co-sleeping is, and safe co-sleeping practises. We’ve co-slept with our kids for 7 years and in this episode, I’m sharing our honest, real-life experience with co-sleeping as parents. This is not advice, not a recommendation, and not a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s simply what worked for our family, what didn’t, and what I’d do differently if we were starting again. I also opened this up to my Instagram community and answered your most common co-sleeping questions, feel free to drop your personal questions below.
