Re: Guys: When did you start sleeping alone?
Quite late I think. I don't remember the age but first I had a cot in my Mums room as a baby. Then I had a little bed right next to her for quite a while. Sometimes I'd sleep in the same bed as her.
Main reason for all this was because I was a very sick baby/young child. She was very worried about something happening so wanted to have me in the same room so she could check on me at night at times. I suppose realistically if I had stopped breathing I doubt she'd have woken up, but I suppose at least if I was coughing or choking it would wake her. Also she went against the often given advice of leaving a baby to cry in it's cot at night rather then comfort it. I also suffered from very vivid and horrific nightmares as a young child, so I'd want to go in her room anyway.
