As Ms. Media said:" There are many places in the world where co-sleeping is customary."
I had concerns when I slept with my young niece in the bed, even though I was a light sleeper. I wedged a thin pillow between us after she was asleep for added protection.
I've co-slept with 5 week old kittens & puppies too. Cinnamon girl asked if your sleep awareness would instinctively change in these situations. It did for me. Much like not moving while a new lover falls asleep in your arms.
I slept next to my mom in my parents' bed, on & off till I was 8.
Dad didn't like it much, so I would wait till he was asleep & then quietly crawl in on mom's side. Thanks mom!
