Not necessary. My 1st born co-sleep with me from newborn until now she's alrdy 2 years old. It's easier for me to attend to her bck in those days where she's still a baby & would wake up in the middle of the night. She's been sleeping thru the night since 6 months old up till now. Again, it's up to individual whether they need the cot or not.

I dont think it is. Bought one and only used it during day time naps when the baby was still really young. My child has been co-sleeping till 19 months now. Of course you'd have to ensure a safe surrounding for him but it has helped me bond with him and no hassle of having to wake up and pick him up etc

Useful as baby gets older ba. Mine hates being in her own bed, lovess to be carried to sleep. Although cant blame her bcos she’s still too young to be sleep trained. Or to be by herself. I guess once she’s able to sleep throughout the night our expensive cot can finally be in good use haha

Definitely helps! But I have friends who co sleep with their babies too, it could be stressful at the beginning in fear of crushing your newborn

In my opinion, yes.. So baby will get used to sleeping on own bed. Anyways, her cot is right next to my bed. So I can easily reach out to her..

Yes. You can let baby play inside the cot while you bath or doing other things without worry that they will fall out

Just standby as one day u need it.. maybe now u might not use it that much but soon when baby grows older u need it

It’s safer to place baby in cot as compared to cosleep. But co sleeping is easier. 😅
