        Is sleeping together bonding?


        Hard to bond with my daughter either kicking me out of the bed or whacking me in my face or stomach now and then :? But it saves electricity since we can all enjoy the aircon in 1 room πŸ™‚

        The same thing happen to me when my P6 boy sharing my bed with me. He is timid & dare not sleep by himself. Telling me he got nightmare or he heard some noise in the night. My P1 girl also end up sleeping on my bed. Since Kor Kor can sleep on mummy's bed, why can't she? Ha ..ha.. Can you imagine how crowded is my bed? Only pro is can save on electricity. Just need to on one air con. πŸ˜†

          DS crawled into our bed last night and squeezed in between both of us. He said he had a nightmare. πŸ˜“

              There is always a man in my bed every night, it is a matter of which one. When hubby is in sg, he usually gets his way (i.e. Sleeps in the bedroom with me) and child has to be contented with his own bed. When hubby is out of town for work, the little man will automatically ζ‰“εŒ… his pillow, bolster and soft toy and camp over at mummy’s.

                Haha. Same here.
                Whenever hubby travel, kids will insist on sleeping with me. Now that both kids are bigger, 3 is too crowded, so they gotta take turns.
                When kid is sick, they will kick daddy off to their bed & sleep with me. πŸ˜‰

                  3 is really crowded. At least your kids are willing to take turn. Both of my kids insist sleeping with me & they end up talking & I end up scolding. :frustrated:

                    1st step was to move 1 kid off our bed onto a mattress in our room, that was DD when she was 2yrs old.

                    2nd step was to move DS off our bed onto another mattress in our room, that was when he was 2yrs old
                    3rd step was to move both of them into a different room, DS was 4 and DD was 6yrs old, I think.
                    Final step, move them into their own bedrooms. No more sharing room. That happened this year, DS 7, DD 9yrs old.

                    And on weekends, we move them all back into our room. πŸ˜‚

                      Wow.. Very interesting moves. Sound like playing chess but without checkmate. I like your weekends move the most. Part of family bonding!

                        My kids slept in their cots in our bedroom since they were babies. So in a way, they have never shared my bed. When they were about 1+, we moved the cot to their own bedroom and they have slept in a separate room since. The only exception is my youngest son who is 2+ now. He wants to sleep in a mattress in the living room.
