Why Do Some People Choose to Cosleep?
Cosleeping supporters believe — and there are some studies to support their beliefs — that cosleeping:

encourages breastfeeding by making nighttime breastfeeding more convenient
makes it easier for a nursing mother to get her sleep cycle in sync with her baby's
helps babies fall asleep more easily, especially during their first few months and when they wake up in the middle of the night
helps babies get more nighttime sleep (because they awaken more frequently with shorter duration of feeds, which can add up to a greater amount of sleep throughout the night)
helps parents who are separated from their babies during the day regain the closeness with their infant that they feel they missed
But do the risks of cosleeping outweigh the benefits?

We had no problems allowing our daughter to sleep with us. I breastfed, so it was so much easier to just go back to sleep while she was nursing, and then nestle her safely in the bed with us. She slept in our bed on and off until she was about seven, at which time she switched over to sleeping on our floor if she was feeling scared or needed to be near us. She's twelve now and she's completely independant. She occasionally asks to sleep on our floor after a scary movie, but that's rare anymore. She likes her privacy now.
