rosye13 (830.1 days ago) I guess for us it depends on the age. My two month old still sleeps on our chests. We take turns with her. She will be 3 months next week and I think we`re going to start to work her into the routine that we have her 15 month old sister in, which is bath, bottle and then to bed, awake but drowsy. We kind of try to slowly work the newborn into being able to sleep alone. I think it must be hard to live in that warmth, hearing the heart beat and the breathing of your mother and then all of a sudden you`re just laying there alone in the silence . . . so I just feel better about giving them a little time on our chests to get used to this world :)
EloiseAndHarrys-Mummy! (832.1 days ago) i was thinking the same thing as robin. i did all of the above. depended on how tired they were and how they were feeling.
