Were gonna need a bigger bed

I always thought a queen sized bed was a great size bed but not if you co-sleep. Your queen sized bed turned into babies bed with a small small pillow sized space for mommy and daddy. I was I could say I was a trendy mom and knew I was gonna co-sleep before he was born but sadly I didn't. I spent months preparing my son's crib. I made sure nothing would fall on him, he had a crib wedge to keep him elevated, I made sure his humidifier was close enough and that he would get a gentle breeze. All of those months of planning were for nothing cause my little nugget was terrified to sleep alone, for literally the moment he was born.

He wouldn't sleep in the Hospital crib and when we got home My fiancé and I took turns holding him at night so at least we would get a few hours of sleep. We tried various things to get him to sleep through the night, the standard Boppy, the Boppy lounger but he kept outgrowing everything. We tried getting a humidifier to be closer, we moved the fan, we bought him a different nightlight, tried swaddles, security blankets, everything! Finally we came across the Dockatot and let me tell you this thing is AMAZING! Not only is it perfect for co-sleeping because gives Luca a safe spot to sleep while letting him be close enough to us for late night feedings but its also a perfect spot to let him lounge. It allows him puppy to snuggle up and cuddle without squishing him and gives him a safe spot to play and roll while mom and dad shower or do house work! I would highly recommend the Dockatot to anyone who wants to co-sleep or just needs a safe spot to let their kids roll and play while they need to do things.

We got Luca the Dockatot Grand because sadly its almost time to start transferring him to his own bed, as he's starting to roll around like a mad man. The greatest thing about the Grand is it goes up to 36 months so my little snuggle bug (This boy loves cuddling more than anyone I know) will have a snuggly place to sleep in his bed while he's getting use to mom and dad not being a arm punch away! The other great thing about the Dockatot is its breathable material so if your munchkin is like mine and Loves to smoosh his face against stuff you know they'll still be able to breath! Also they has several different covers to choose from and they sell inner pad parts replacements (thank goodness because my little ones bum has made its own special indented spot). Super thankful we found a solution that works for everyone and that my little bug can continue to co-sleep and wake me up with subtle punches in my eye when he's hungry!!
