7. Impact on Family Routine
Co-sleeping can affect personal time, bedtime routines, and overall household structure. Couples may find it harder to maintain privacy or consistent sleep schedules.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Some families transition gradually by starting with bedtime cuddles and then moving the child to their own bed. Others continue co-sleeping while setting clear boundaries.
