Experts advise against parents allowing their children to sleep in their bed with them.

This is an equally difficult period for children and parents. Children often wake up in the middle of the night, whims and hysterics are possible, but all this can be overcome.

If you give in, co-sleeping with your child will become a more serious problem in the future.

Experts explained why you shouldn't do this.

There is no need to talk about the advantages. The child is always under supervision, and even if he wakes up at night, he will definitely not be afraid of anything.

But only the time when parents are raising a baby can be called pleasant. After that, it's all negativity.

Flaws

The most unpleasant thing that can happen in such cases is the fear of parents accidentally harming the baby during sleep.

Sleeping under constant stress has never led to anything good for anyone.

But the longer this continues, the more difficult it will be for the child to get used to the idea that he should sleep alone and in his own bed.

For parents, this also has consequences due to developing anxiety due to the fear of harming the child in a dream. One must not forget about personal life.

Therefore, experts say that the best choice is a separate crib for the baby, which can be placed next to the adult bed.
