Am I a bad mom or being greedy for having my 3 year old daughter sleep in my bed with me she has her own room with a lovely twin bed and TV but it’s just me and my daughter so I feel safer with her sleeping with me sometimes she asks to sleep in her own room and I let her but recently family and friends are judging me hard saying things like I am making the worst mistake of my life and she will never sleep in her room again and other things I keep telling them she’s my child she will sleep in my bed as long as she wants to but I’m feeling like a bad mom for this and she still has access to her room she uses it as her play room it’s get cleaned regularly. Am I being selfish?

No. I co-slept with my kids until they were 7 and 5. Then got them a bunkbed and they sleep in it fine every night, only coming in for middle of the night snuggles 1 time a week or so which I’m fine with. I think it makes kids feel safer too. They are only small for such a short time. They won’t want to be close to you forever so keep them close now

she is THREE. Let her decide and redirect if you need space. Three sometimes needs momma. Three, sometimes momma needs her. Either way direct her to her own and if she winds up with you, so be it, and stop sharing information with family and friends, it’s really not their business what you do in your own home with your own child as long as you’re not harming the child.

I let my boys sleep with me whenever they wanted to! Even as teenagers if I was having a rough day they’d lay down me…you be you!

Only if you’re making her. My son shared my room when I was a single mom. His room was for toys. But he slept either in my bed or in a twin sized floor mattress. It’s perfectly normal in most of the world.
He’s now almost 13 and has his own room, which he sleeps in, and has no issues. He’s been in there for years now without issue

You’re not a bad mom. You want the time with your daughter and there is nothing wrong with that. She is only 3 once.

Watch all the other codependent moms defend and justify her codependency and creating a codependent child.

Nope. Not at all.
My 12 yr old son still sneaks in my bed and sleeps with me when my hubs is out of town. So will my 6&8yr old.
It’s their safety.
Treasure it.

I assume she wants to sleep with you then no.
I have two of my kids that sleep in my room because they want too. Showing love and comfort is never a bad thing

No and she asks for space once in awhile and you give it to her so she knows she can have it when she’s ready. You do what works for you. She’s your baby.

Do what makes you happy. They are only little for such a short time. Don’t worry she will want her own room soon enough.
Nothing wrong with it at all…enjoy it while she’s little…they grow up way to fast

You are fine ! My daughter slept with me when her dad and I divorced. I loved it and so did she
Tell them to go suck an egg and quit telling your business.
All of my kids slept in my bed from the day they were born til they were ready to go their bed. My first one was 3 years old slept in her bed but weekend or no school days she will sore in my bed sometimes depending on how she feels. My first and second sons went their bed at 2 years old they come to my bed on weekends til 7 years old they stopped. My third son is the only one who sleep in our bed longest time til 10 years old and on weekends and no school days he sneak up on my bed to sleep with me he has very high anxiety and I’m his security and calm person to help him. You’re not bad mom. You’re doing great. Don’t listen to other who give you negative feedback on your daughter sleep in ur bed. If just 2 of you it is perfect because help both of you sleep well and feel safe. You got this mama
Not at all your child , my youngest , slept with me on and off until she was 8 then she stayed in her own bed. They are only little once , and. If you both feel safer that. Way it’s. Fine. Nobody’s else business

You are doing what is natural. I co-slept in the nursery for 5 years. They still hop in bed with me some nights. Absolutely nothing wrong loving your baby and making them feel safe. We are biologically meant for it. We literally help regulate body temp and heart beats.
You’re a GOOD mom!

yes. good luck getting rid of her later. my cousin didn’t get rid of her kids until they were in high school and that’s only bc she let her then boyfriend move in.
So maybe she will be grown and have her own house in her own bed and you will wish that you would have let her sleep with you for as long as she wanted to, people are nosy and weird why do they care which room your daughter sleeps in.
It’s fine I don’t see anything wrong with it at all, just whenever you decide the time is right he can sleep in his bed, if you sleep in his bed with him too he’ll feel safe and sleep in either one. Three years old is still a baby they need mama. Nothing wrong with it at all, now I wouldn’t do it forever maybe a few more years and then I would just have it at special times but if it’s just you too, I’d feel safer too.
Veronica Gomez what’s so funny??
Nope, co slept for way longer than I needed to and he’s a perfectly fine teenager with all the normal stuff that comes with that. You do what feels best you and your child. He doesn’t even wanna hug me half the times these days so enjoy those snuggles whilst you can xx
If she wants to sleep in her own bed and room let her. Don’t keep her in yours . You have day time with her. Find something to keep you occupied on your own before going to bed

You need to grow up. Let her sleep in her room.
No you are definitely not a bad mom 
I have a 8 and nearly 4 year old they both sleep with me, both have their own rooms, tv etc recently decorated both of their bedrooms but they sleep with me, I ant ring myself to put them in their own room, the thought of it makes me think so much bad stuff
They’re not young for long! Enjoy the time and cuddles all night with them!

Young one, you’re fine. I come from a big family - we slept with our parents - we had our own rooms - it’s a personal choice- your house your rules your ways - heck I remember when my heart got broke and Momma’s arms was the only medicine that helped 
Of all the things a mom can do for her child to make her a “bad mom”…. Sleeping in your room is not one of them, nor is it selfish.
At 3 years old still needs you. You stated you feel more comfortable with her sleeping with you, she does too when my kids were growing up even if they were older if they were scared or stressed I would allow them to climb in bed with me, would just be careful about creating future problems as may be a day when you need your privacy sweet dreams to you and your little one
If the sentence begins with am I a bad mom if… and the sentence ends with something that doesn’t harm your child… then the answer is always no, no matter what anyone else’s opinion is. Period.
