The “separate crib in a separate room” idea is historically recent, mostly a post-industrial, Western cultural shift. Here are the **advantages** that are usually pointed out for keeping a baby in the parents’ bed (bedsharing) until toddlerhood: <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 1. Evolutionary &amp; Historical Norm <br/> <br/>* For millennia, human babies were rarely placed alone to sleep. In small bands and agricultural societies alike, mothers and infants shared the same sleeping surface (skins, mats, hammocks, or beds). <br/>* Anthropologists often call humans “co-sleeping mammals” — like primates and many other species, we’re biologically geared for close nighttime contact. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 2. Physiological Regulation <br/> <br/>* Babies’ breathing, heart rate, and body temperature tend to sync with their mother’s when close. <br/>* The warmth of the parent reduces energy spent on thermoregulation, which can help with growth and weight gain. <br/>* Exposure to the parent’s breathing rhythm can help regulate infant breathing stability. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 3. Feeding Convenience <br/> <br/>* Especially for breastfeeding, proximity at night makes it easier. Mothers often feed half-asleep without fully waking. <br/>* This frequent nighttime nursing helps maintain milk supply and can reduce night-time stress for both baby and mother. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 4. Sleep Quality &amp; Stress Reduction <br/> <br/>* Infants often settle more quickly when they can sense a parent’s presence — through warmth, smell, touch, and sound. <br/>* Parents may actually get **more** sleep because they don’t have to fully wake up to attend to the baby in another room. <br/>* Cortisol (stress hormone) levels in infants tend to be lower with co-sleeping. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 5. Bonding &amp; Security <br/> <br/>* Constant closeness builds attachment. The baby experiences night as an extension of day: safe, social, and connected. <br/>* Parents may feel emotionally reassured by the immediate awareness of the baby’s well-being. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 6. Developmental Continuity <br/> <br/>* In cultures where bedsharing continues into toddlerhood or beyond, children often show less nighttime anxiety and fewer bedtime struggles later. <br/>* Toddlers learn sleep as a social experience, which can support emotional regulation. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>## 7. Cross-Cultural Confirmation <br/> <br/>* Even today, in much of Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Indigenous communities, children normally sleep with parents until at least 2–5 years old. <br/>* The modern Western crib-separation model is unusual historically and globally. <br/> <br/>--- <br/> <br/>### Bottom line <br/> <br/>You’re correct: **traditionally, co-sleeping was the human default** — not just until 2 years, but often longer. The shift toward solo sleeping is very recent (about 150–200 years, accelerating with Victorian ideas of independence and modern housing). 2025-08-23T19:10:51+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs2qfdmzzqvmdmjh0mf0t7y09ztztdrmklz2yf4e46ysaxgs4y9qpczypgsy9rhhy7uqsppa2fa6jm683kmlwty77tsa5dnf8knj85pslh9yw657kp In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9va5ls4pq28zmqa5hp6hvr2a7udkj0458w2femhfe64ette3lyusvm2ay4'>nevent1q…2ay4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Nice, hope it works for you. Ritalin for me makes me feel very weird. I am kind of trapped in my head and don&#39;t socialize as much on it but adderall has the opposite effect. Maybe I just need a smaller dose though. 2025-08-23T08:10:12+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsv2a5jap9vcc33gnspyf0sccd3a8dx6f3zqt6zd5jf62zvwn06mxczypgsy9rhhy7uqsppa2fa6jm683kmlwty77tsa5dnf8knj85pslh9y6dnls2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqwh3lpankg5hxyyvg4mglvv0rs5z4euc3dnwzm88hsgrwrr5slfgn7nncd'>nevent1q…nncd</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I wish mine didn&#39;t give me headaches like they do.
