We are about 50% of the time

He sleeps between us pretty much.

Naps are in his crib, he doesn't have an issue with it.

No we don't

We do use blankets. I always have. Bishop normally sleeps on top of it. I keep blankets to about my hips though since my legs are always colder.

Alone but he always starts out in his bed now. Before hand he needed my help.

He is pretty much transitioned. He cosleeps when we night nurse.

How do you do it? he sleeps in the middle or between me and the wall, depending on which side he's eating from
What about naps? he either naps in the living room, or my bed, or in the car if we are out
Will you use side rails? no
Do you use blankets? we are using a fleece sheet as a blanket
Does baby fall asleep alone or with you? with me
When will you transition? when night feeds stop or he can be in his crib without screaming his head off

We no longer are and haven't for awhile. She just doesn't sleep well with us or anywhere beside her crib.
I sure miss it at times but then I also like being able to move as well..lol Because when we did co-sleep I was in the middle so I had her curling into me as well as DH. So I felt very squished at times.

Who still doing it? We are sometimes.
How do you do it? When she wakes up in the middle of the night and is too upset to go back to sleep, I take her in the guest room and we sleep together.
What about naps? She naps alone in her crib.
Will you use side rails? No.
Do you use blankets?Yes.
Does baby fall asleep alone or with you? She drinks a bottle and I rock her to sleep and put her in the crib. Some nights she does just fine with only a few trips into the nursery to help her find her pacifier. Sometimes, though, she gets really upset (night terrors?) and I can't calm her down easily, so then we co-sleep for the rest of the night.
When will you transition? We have already started...she sleeps by herself more than she co-sleeps, which makes me a little sad.

Who still doing it? we are, julia and my 3.5yr old sleep with us.
How do you do it? we have her crib sidecar with our bed. Dh sleeps on the outside, then ds, then me, then julia.
What about naps? she sleeps on her own in a chair or pack n play in the living room.
Will you use side rails? no
Do you use blankets? yes
Does baby fall asleep alone or with you? she starts off falling asleep in the living room and then we wake her when we go to bed and she nurses and then i scoot her over into the crib. She still gets up multiple times to nurse and she doesnt go back in the crib at those times.
When will you transition? whenever shes ready. my older dd hates sleeping with us, DS still loves and it needs it. So we will see.

Who still doing it? We do sometimes.
How do you do it? She sleeps in her crib at the beginning of the night, but if she wakes up, I put her in bed with us.
What about naps? She naps in her crib.
Will you use side rails? No
Do you use blankets? Yes, but just around my legs. I push everything down when she's in our bed.
Does baby fall asleep alone or with you? I rock her to sleep every night and put her in her crib. She usually stays asleep.
When will you transition? She's still in our room in her crib. Whe she starts sleeping more solidly, I'll move her crib into DD's room. I'm in no big hurry.

Who still doing it? Us all the time
How do you do it? Right now we're in a trasition stage where I'm trying to figure things out. Without going into a whole bunch of details about all the different ways we've tried lately that didn't work out I'll just leave it at she sleeps between me and DH and our matress on the floor, so not far to roll (though, she never does anyways). Sometimes I sleep with her on a cot matress on the floor and go back and forth between there and my bed with DH. However, I've decided that starting tonight I will be sleeping with her on the cot matress in DD1's room where I want to transition her to, and go back and forth from there to my bed. She still nurses so much at night.
What about naps? She naps on the cot matress.
Will you use side rails? No
Do you use blankets? Just a throw blanket, not comforters.
Does baby fall asleep alone or with you? with muah
When will you transition? See second question
