bed sharing made difficult

RoxZ32

L has been sleeping with us for the past month since she decided her crib was prison and I haven't found the strength yet to try some sleep training. Anyways, the more mobile she gets the harder bed sharing is with her. I sleep with my back to her (when she didn't require a boob in her mouth) and she will now crawl back and forth between me and my husband and headbutt until we turn around. Lately she's just been trying to crawl over me in the middle of the night. She is so obsessed with cellphones, ipads and controllers she climbs to the nightstand and pulls each item into bed with her. There's no true point to this post but I'm just so amazed at how quickly they grow and I see everything is going to become harder now that she has become a real mover!

I'm sympathetic! C can't sleep in our bed because I'm too afraid he will fall. He's fast!

I am no help but I can considerate. I'm reading this on my iPad because my cell phone is being chewed on. I'm also watching the hunting channel because that is what R decided to put on.

I told my husband we're going to do sleep training over Christmas break, no more putting it off.  Mama needs a good night's sleep.

This is my plan as well. In my OP I wrote I wasn't ready but I don't think that's entirely correct. Sure I don't want to hear my baby cry but I think I could do it. I wanted to start the other night and my husband said no, that he enjoys having her in bed with him. He has two weeks off for Christmas and he wants to spend "every minute of the day & night with her" well he's not the one with the milk but the idea is sweet so I caved and said we'd wait till January. :-S
