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.11.29.2010
So bad...yet so good

Sometimes you just need a good snuggle with the little dumpling!
ReplyDeleteI 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!
