It's not for everyone, but we slept with the baby between us. When he woke up and was hungry, wife just rolled over and put a nipple in his mouth. I think she rolled him out of bed once, but we never squished him. *I* on the other hand dropped him out of a shopping cart onto cement floors, TWICE, in the SAME TRIP. I also punched a hole in the wall when I got home.
I was STILL exhausted for about 2 years. Thank God my wife's aunt was available to babysit, she had a few of the cousins all together. I teased her for quite a while that she signed up until he was 18.
Later this month he turns 21, and I'm still tired. Turns out maybe it wasn't the kid, he hasn't been in our bed for about 9 years . . .
