Advantages: more sleep!

Disadvantages: dangerous

I wouldnt say my daughter shares our bed with us, but she has been known to wake up in it a few times!
She has her own bed which she goes to sleep in on a night with no problems. She normally wakes up at about 5am. Rather than have to get up with her at such a stupid time, she comes in our bed, and we get a few hours extra sleep, I dont see a problem with this at all, it gives me extra sleep!!
I dont really agree with putting a new born in bed, I feel its very dangerous and starting them off like this. Everybody needs there own bed / space. My baby was poorly and I slept on the couch with him, as I didnt want him to get into the habit of sleeping with us, also I love thick heavy duvets right up to me, so doing this with a young baby is a no no.

Summary: ok if comes in early morning!
