Co-sleeping can be a controversial topic amongst parents, with those for and against fervently contending that their choice is right and the other simply wrong. Of course, there’s plenty of middle ground as well: It doesn’t have to come down to, say, family bed versus Ferber. Babble offers plenty of information for parents on the subject of co-sleeping – whether you’re just weighing your choices or need tips to make co-sleeping a success in your home. You’ll also find an essay about two parents who didn’t see eye to eye on the subject of co-sleeping, thoughts on when to make the move from co-sleeping to a crib, and a cross-cultural perspective on co-sleeping.
