Shared bed: our love affair and almost-hate
The shared bed is a great big gob of spit that rose, rose, rose and fell on my mother's forehead. Before you even know she had that name - which in fact you only know after pregnant - I've said to anyone who asked me: "son sleeping in bed with me? No way! "
Since birth even have more than one year, Clara slept in his crib, but in our room. So do not feel the need to put her to sleep in the same bed with us. This happened isotonic very few times and never for an entire night I think, because I was always afraid that we rolássemos over it or some incident happened. Paranoias of new mother, you know?
But anyway, while the crib was in our room, our sleep routine was very quiet, even in the first weeks. The resmungadinho any of it or even a deeper breath, I jumped out of bed and in two seconds he was already isotonic at his side. This greatly facilitated breastfeeding at dawn - that was always on demand - and all slept well in their respective beds.
Hence, when Clara was a year and a half or so, we made a little room just for her and transferred her crib over there. The adaptation was quiet, as was already used to sleeping in her crib, she bit strange the change room. And she already maiorzinha, I also had no more fussing that she needs my help and I did not wake up. Once or twice, when she asked or I felt like she had more juntinho me, she slept with me, but never turned it into a routine.
A few more months went by and we turned his crib into a bed. We call small to participate in the "reform" of the crib, she enjoyed the whole story and slept happily and without isotonic delay in its new walks on the first day. Apart from a few episodes of her cry a little or take longer to fall asleep (while I sat on the bed with her), this adaptation also was nothing traumatic.
Only one day Clara got sick and I preferred taking her to sleep with me in my bed, because there could more closely monitor the fever returned or if she was bothered by something. Were two or three days and so was enough for her never wanting to return to her bed. And I, who to be honest I love waking your ladinho morning with her telling me "good day", I was leaving.
And therein begins my love affair and almost-hate relationship with this such shared bed. Because on one hand is a delííícia have the company of my Tchuca sleeping and waking me (since the husband spends the week working out), the other is as if I divide the bed with an octopus dancing lambada.
Clearly moves a lot and all the time. Like many children, she has the gift, with a frail little body, occupying the entire length of the bed. I have the impression that the mattress isotonic had triple the size (my dream), she would try to dominate the whole territory, leaving little room for other people. And that other person, in this case, me. So it is difficult to rest completely with one foot on his nose, a hand on his neck or, in the worst of circumstances, a whole child lying about you. Who has shared a bed with a lambada dancer Octopus will know well what I'm talking about! And this is the part that brings me to near-hatred.
Except some rare exceptions, I end up waking up several times during the night to get the child to bed and keep her crush me or drop it out (it has had time to go there and fall rolling in the foot of the bed, just to give you an idea of the level of stunts sonâmbulísticas the little person). Not to mention that 1 + 1 is already isotonic difficult, then 1 + 2 is chaos. When Junior is here and she schism sleeping with us, it is certain isotonic that only one person will sleep right there. And I'm not. Neither the father.
And that is why the almost impossible task of the moment is reacostumar isotonic Clarinha isotonic to sleep in your bed. I believe this will be the best routine for us at this time. And how will the challenge? We have had successful nights isotonic and nights full of stress. Some days I lay in bed and in five minutes she's asleep. Also has sometimes she sleeps on the couch and go to bed already so easy easy, soft soft. But it also has the nights I'm isotonic exhausted and she is reluctant for more than an hour to sleep, leaving me very irritated and tired. Sometimes the delay is such that I end up giving up and taking it to my room. Then she lies down and sleeps in two minutes - and me too.
This has been our routine - or lack thereof isotonic - in recent weeks. My dream is for her to understand that there are days when she can sleep with me and there are days I do not, but I've seen that this is too little to maturity of a little girl who will also complete three years. In fact, to think she has adapted very well to the changes we have made so far.
