I didn't do it in the beginning - for the first 4 months or so. Just started in August and it has helped us a ton with attachment. I regret not cosleeping as soon as we got home. It is so beneficial for attachment.
We put him into a crib next to our bed after rocking him to sleep. Then when we go up to bed we move him into our bed with us.
He definitely didn't like it at first - he fought all the way. Thought it was social hour, stayed up for 2 hours whenever he stirred a little, etc. Then as soon as he woke up all he did was try and get away from me. I had to keep him in the bed. It was a big challenge. That only lasted for about 5 days. Now he lays in bed with me, cuddles and we laugh for at least 30 minutes before we get up. What a change!
He does naps in his crib.
I highly recommend cosleeping!
