I will have my own baby,I heard baby sleep with parents will be less independent,but my friend told me the baby should sleep with the parents which give the baby more confidence,safety and love.Which one should I choose?The baby should sleep with me or itself?

Safety 1st, i think. A man in Florida put his 2 month old beside him. When he awoke he had fallen asleep on top of the baby. It didn't turn out well. I am getting ready to have my second child in December. We will have a bassinet in our room for a while. But not in the bed with us. I think in the room next to your bed with a bassinet will be fine. Good luck with your baby.

Well, that's partly true but think about this if your baby is hungry in the middle of night and wake up find itself in the darkness, will that be a good impact on your baby? I think the better solution is the combination of both. First, sleep with your baby and later, i mean gradually, let your baby sleep itself bu close to your bed, then, let your baby sleep in its own room. By doing so i hope you can solve the problem. Have a nice day!
