So bad...yet so good

When Austin was a newborn and not napping well I used to bring him into my bed and take naps with him quite often. I know this is a bad habit, but it didn't seem to scar him and I loved it because we both got to sleep. I stopped around 6 weeks, because I didn't want him to get in the habit of napping with mom. Well after a crazy few days of traveling over Thanksgiving my little man was all off schedule. He wasn't napping well today and I didn't want him to get overtired so I broke down and brought him into bed with me. I know...bad mommy! We laid there for awhile and he talked and talked. I think he was telling me that a crib nap was out of the question for today ha! So anyways I nursed him for a few minutes and he was passed out. Just me and him snuggling and napping. Ahhhh! I know I can't make a habit of it, but it was nice to snuggle with my growing boy. Now let's hope he forgets he was ever in my bed and enjoys his crib tonight.

  2. I know how you feel! I am so happy when I let myself give in to the "rules" and get in a good snuggle/nap with Carly. Good for you, girl!
