Specializes in Pediatrics

Waking: Under no circumstances should you let your child sleep in bed with you. When he wakes up at night, go to him to make sure he is ok, but do not pick him up.You are entitled to your privacy there also the possibility of your child getting hurt while you and your husband are sleeping.
