Sharing bed with baby?

August 26, 2007 · Filed Under News Articles 

‘Old people’ had this saying of that it’s harmful for the baby to sleep with adults as the adult would suck in the “qi” of the baby or the baby would suck in the “old” qi of the adult.

When Amilie was born, we let her sleep with us on the bed cos’ the cot had not arrived yet. We did have fear of accidentally ‘crushing’ her. When Izaac was born, we let him sleep in the cot but changed to bed in the end. He always fell off the bed due to his too much somersaulting while sleeping. But I do think that they feel secure while sleeping with us and they could bond with us.

Here’s an article of debating between experts and mummies, so where do you stand?
