Co-Sleeping in Separate Beds.
Co-sleeping is a great way to feel close to your baby. Co-sleeping is when you sleep in close proximity to your baby. There are two types of co-sleeping: room-sharing and bed-sharing. Room-sharing is when your baby sleeps nearby in the same room, and bed-sharing is when you sleep in the same bed with your baby. Many experts discourage bed-sharing because it carries increased risk of SIDS, or sudden infant death syndrome.Whether you choose to room-share or bed-share, the most important thing about co-sleeping is following the safety guidelines.
1 Place a crib next to the bed. If you want to room-share, place a bed for your baby right next to yours. You can put a bassinet, crib, or play yard in the room.You can be close to your baby, but reduce the dangers of bed-sharing.
2 Choose a bedside sleeper. If you want to be closer than a crib, you can place
a bedside sleeper on your bed. This bed attaches directly to the bed.so you can be next to your baby, but keeps you separated on different surfaces.
