Arms Reach Original Co-Sleeper Review

The co-sleeper made our nighttime parenting so enjoyable! Our daughter slept in the co-sleeper until she was 8 months old. We loved having her close by and I NEVER felt sleep deprived, even when she was still getting up several times each night to eat. I know it's because I never had to set foot out of bed or even sit up to feed her. I'd just roll over and lift her up beside me. I never had to worry about rolling over on her or her getting smoothered by the covers or accidentally rolling out of bed.

I think it was good for her to sleep close to us, but not too close. When it was time to move her into her own room, she made the transition seamlessly. I think sleeping in the co-sleeper rather than right beside us gave her an element of independence that made the move simple. She was already used to sleeping "by herself" even though we were right there.

I highly recommend this product to every mom I know.
