You know how people without kids always have all the answers to any parenting dilemma. My husband and I certainly did and one of our first pre-children rules was no kids sleeping in our bed. (occasionally on the floor after a bad dream, sure, but not in our bed.) We thought this could be a hard habit to kick and figured we would avoid any pitfalls this way. While this is still the plan, we have had a recent offender slipping quietly beneath our covers in the early morning hours. So stealthy in fact that, we have only caught her in the act once or twice at around 6 a.m. Initially it was so close to wake up time that we didn't fight it, but now after 4 days, we are starting to see a trend. So much for best intentions.
Sometimes you think you will "never" do something, but realize you have to be more flexible. Don't worry about it too much - you guys are great parents!
