They say it’s unsafe: the bedding is a suffocation risk. The kid could fall off the bed or become trapped between the edge and the wall. A crib, they insist, is the best place for a baby to sleep.

Still, what’s more soothing than nodding off next to your warm and loving Mom or Dad?

Bringing together the best of both worlds are crib co-sleepers.
