My six year olds still land in bed with me some nights. Heck my soon to be 12 year old still crawls in some nights. My brother at 17 if he was not feeling well would go lay down in our moms bed. Your her dad and her safe spot, nothing wrong with her wanting to cuddle up with you.

You are not spoiling that baby for making her feel safe enough to fall asleep. I’m currently hiding in my spare bathroom smoking because my son crawled in bed with me and is still in there sleeping he’s almost 10
Yes… 3 yrs old. Time for a “ big girls” bed.

My daughter slept with me until she was about 9, almost 10. We didn’t find clinginess to be an issue. She’s just as moody and standoffish at 12 as the rest of her 6th grade class.

She’s 3. At some point they want to sleep in their own bed. If you wanted to start transitioning her into a big girl bed you can but that’s if that works for y’all. My daughter is 3 and has a big girl bed. She starts out in her own bed and will end up in mine by morning. It’s not a big deal. You’re her dad. I’ve tried getting up and down all night for weeks at a time to put her back to bed and it will take its toll on you if you’re alone with no help and it’s EXHAUSTING. It’s where she feels safe when she sleeps. Not a big deal.

It’s fine. I’d make sure that the kid has a separate bed so they have a choice and so if mom starts up anything you can prove it’s not forced. Don’t forget a mattress protector jic if accidents/vomiting!

Cosleeping once applied only to nursing infants. It has gone far beyond that now, and that poses several problems.
First, if you start dating someone, things will be awkward immediately. Your gf won’t want your daughter in bed with y’all, due to space issues and lack of privacy.
Second, part of growing up is learning independence and self-efficacy. Sleeping with parents too long fails to teach this.
As for the parents who’ve commented that their 9 year olds sleep with them, I believe Supernanny just fainted. Kids must learn boundaries. Letting them determine the boundaries is backwards. Parents decide; children might not love it at first, but it’s necessary for healthy emotional growth.

It is a security issue. Leave it alone for now. My 9 year old grandson still likes his mom to sleep with him until he is asleep and when he wakes up at night he still goes to get her. It will pass in time.

My son is almost 8 and still sleeps with me. I don’t mind because they grow up so fast. I’ve been a single mom to him since he was 1 so it’s definitely a comfort thing since he shares half the time with his dad he misses me and likes to be close with me when he is here.
Enjoy those snuggles! My 4 year old little boy still climbs in with his dad and I… nothing wrong with it. It makes him feel comfortable and safe. They grow up so fast, enjoy it while it lasts!

Mu sister slept in my parents bed till she was literally 15yrs old. They couldn’t keep her out at all till she was like 10 and even then she would end up there sometimes, last time she was 15. Three seems awfully young to worry about that. They don’t cuddle forever 
My kids sleep in my bed any chance they get! From 7, clear up to almost 16. Comfort doesn’t have an age limit.

Make sure she has a bed and knows she van sleep there is she chooses. However, if she wants to and you are ok with it, enjoy the snuggles. Adults arent the only one who enjoy having someone there at night, for snuggles and reassurance from the dark. And theres nothing sexual about it.

Well heres the thing. I dont think its to old, BUT ask the mom if it’s because it makes your child have a harder time transitioning at her house or what. If its effecting your daughter then it may be time for her to be in her own bed, even if its a bed next to your to start out. Ya gotta think if she’s sleeping in bed with dad while she’s there then goes back to mom and isn’t allowed to, it may be stressful for her.

Not weird at all. But I will say it took a month or more to get my son to finally sleep in his own bed and his dad would let him sleep in the bed with him so when he came back home I had to start all over.
Theres only so long they are little and want to snuggle I say enjoy it while it lasts .

My now 10 year old would still sleep with her Daddy every night if we let her. What is mom’s issue? Is she trying to transition her to her own bed at mom’s house and this is getting in the way of that? That’s the only “good” reason I can come up with for there to be a problem.

My seven and four year olds sometimes want one or both of us to sleep with them. My boyfriend blows up an air mattress and the three of them sleep in the living room on it then. Often this happens once a week. Sometimes I take the couch cushion and sleep on it on the floor. (Couch is too short to lay there comfortably.) Other times I go sprawl out in the bed. Nothing weird or wrong with your daughter sleeping with you at all.

My daughter is 12 and still sleeps with us sometimes. 
Honestly, your daughter will eventually get big enough that she’ll realize she’s more comfortable in her own bed and transition out of yours.
If you ex is uncomfortable then maybe just be sure to wear proper pj’s to bed and tell her to relax. 
Your daughter is still very young and needs that comfort. Not a damn thing wrong with it.
I think that’s normal, especially for a 3 yr old

I don’t see the problem she is only 3 she is not that old. If your daughter wants you too maybe just lay with her in her bed just until she falls asleep. The only problem you may have is that it may be hard to get her to sleep in her own bed alone as she gets older.
I don’t see anything wrong with it.

Your baby is your baby! She wants cuddles! Do what you feel is right for you 2. By almost 5 year old will occasionally sleep with us still as well as with his older sisters. You are her safe space don’t take that from her.
3yrs old the kid should have her own bed.
Eventually she is going to have to graduate to her own bed and room. I would start by getting a toddler sized bed and placing it in the same room. Start letting her fall asleep with you then move her to her lil bed. Next start moving her lil bed further and further away from your bed. When you get her into her own space there might be times where you sleep on her floor until she falls asleep. If there is no additional room to become her room, create a divider so there is the feeling of having her own room until you can adjust the situation. Every child is different however they eventually have to get routined into their own space just do it in a loving supportive manner and keep being a great daddy.

I have been hearing about cryptocurrency I never know how it works until I came across Mrs lisa jennifer trades and She makes me understand how it works, since then I’ve been investing in her platform and i have being making massive profits that’s why I decided to tell you, invest with the right manager today. Click on this name to message her
It’s so bloody hard for men and their little girls obviously I don’t know this firsthand but have witnessed it . A woman lets her child sleep with her so a man who’s the father of that little one can let his daughter sleep with him because Surprisingly fathers have gut instinct too ! And you will know when you need to have her sleep on her own . Your gut will tell you listen to it Always and your little girl might decide herself when she wants to sleep in her own bed good luck 
This is incredible wow 
I never knew investment in this trading platform is so profitable what a massive profit 
. Thanks so much Mrs lisa jennifer 
for my successful investment am really grateful, to me this is more than a miracle securedbasefxoption is the best trading platform 
Mrs lisa jennifer
Since I started investing it has been smooth and no complain. But I still see people complaining in one way or the other. I wonder why investing in binary trading has been so profitable to me. So I think I should introduce my manager Mrs lisa jennifer to you if you’re interested. She has been a honest woman all through and I am still investing with her till today, her strategies are mind blowing and she always keep to her promises. Invest with the right manager and there will been no more weeping. She is paying profits and you will not be disappointed.
My kids both slept with us until around 5 or 6 years old. You’re doing great. 
Its also expected of the developmental age.
She’ll sleep on her own eventually. I don’t see anything wrong with this. You’re her dad. She feels safe with you. Both my boys still sleep with me at night. My oldest is 3.
Why’s it ok for kids to sleep n bed with mom forever but not dad:roll_eyes: it’s her safe space right now and she’ll move to her own bed when she’s ready. Tell mom to suck it

I’m a mom of 4boy and also have a bonus daughter. I coslept with my older 2 boys until they were 2/3 years old, my 3rd son sleeps with us still he’s 3years old currently and my youngest son is 1 and cosleeps with us too. We all sleep in the same bed on weekends. (6years old, 5years old, 3years old and 1year old) we see my bonus daughter for short periods of time once every 2-4months and she’s also 6years old and she sleeps with us next to daddy and everyone is in the same bed again on weekends. I am working 3rds soon and everyone will sleep with dad still. I see no problem and her bio mom even said she needs to so she can create a bond with us more (we just saw her for the first time in 3years cause mom kept her from him and blocked us because she was jealous of me and still had feelings for my fiancé at the time now we’re best friends)

My 9yr old girls fall asleep in our bed with their dad all the time and they would absolutely sleep there if I didn’t make him move them for my sake of getting any sleep 
It’s totally fine in my opinion, and also, she’s still a damn baby at 3!
I always had mine in their own rooms and own bed at the age of 3 but if they happened to wake up in the night and come into my room I’d let them climb into bed and they would sleep between my husband and I. I would say u do want to establish some separation as she gets older so it’s not a problem later trying to get her in her room and own bed. She is still young so it’s not really a problem as she is probably just feeling more comfortable with u by her side. What I did is had them in their rooms and bed but I would lay next to them until they fell asleep that way they were in their own space and then like I said earlier in this message if they woke up in the night and came into my room then I would let them climb into my bed. Doing that allowed some separation so that as they got older they weren’t still trying to sleep in my bed between my husband and I as they were too big. U will find what works and know when its time for her to not sleep in ur bed. I am a mom of 2 boys and 1 girl so I went through this with all my kids.
Not too old! Mine will fall asleep in her room and about midnight she’ll get up and climb into bed with us. Enjoy the cuddles while it lasts!!!
I personally think she should be in her own bed. I think the ability to self soothe enough to sleep is so important. However, I will always let my kids sleep in my bed if they’re ever scared or something but they need that independence. You do what you feel comfortable with. Just keep in mind I’m not sure if you’re in a relationship but if you do get into one in the future… would you be comfortable with a man sleeping in a bed with you and your daughter? Would you want the private time with said other person? Just a thought.
My daughter is turning five and still sleeps in my bed.
My youngest always slept in the bed with me anytime she wanted. My oldest was always to Independent and she never would. Trust me, one day you will miss this stage. They grow up way to quick, so don’t worry about how anyone else feels. She’s your child, enjoy the simple things as long as you can.
Our daughter is 10 and loves falling asleep with her dad. I come from a culture where Cosleeping safely is normal.
Shes a baby, cuddle your baby.
However, you should encourage her to learn to self soothe and sleep in her own bed for her to establish a little independence. Age 5 is a good age for children to sleep in their own bed throughout the whole night, so if you start now you’ll have the time to transition her from co sleeping to self soothing a lot easier instead of trying to get her to do it overnight.
My 5 year old son still sleeps in bed with his dad most nights and when my boyfriend is working graves I also let me son sleep with me. If he has to sleep in his room it’s not a big deal he will without a fight. But when I have the house to myself besides my son, I let him sleep with me. Makes me feel better and I love the cuddles
My boys were not allowed to sleep with us. My rule. I kept a twin bed in their room if I needed to lay with them. I was not going to cross that bridge down the road. Why? First- I wouldn’t have the heart to give them the boot so why even start. Second- how can we sleep well with an octopus in the bed? They did occasionally climb in during the night and mornings were special when the kiddos joined us for snuggle time. But, this was me. I think most parents let their children sleep with them.

I personally am not a fan of cosleeping in general. But if it’s your cup of tea, who cares whatever keeps you and your baby happy and comfy is all that matters
It would be best to break her of this habit. She needs to learn self soothing and to sleep alone.
Cuddle that baby as long as she’ll let you. If she gives you any feeling of being uncomfortable then it’s time to stop but I’ll cuddle my kids forever
Have a toddler bed on the side of yours … And practice putting her in there everynight eventually she will just wanna go to sleep in her own bed … my daughter does it and she still co sleeps with me and her dad … But now I just had a baby 3 days ago so she’s gonna have to start sleeping in her bed lol
