How I sleep with 3 kids

Arrange from left: Kor-kor (in his cot), Me and Di-di (on King size bed) and QQ (on single bed).

Before the twin boys were born, I have been cracking my head thinking how the earth should I sleep with 3 kids + breastfeeding 2 boys at the same time. Luckily we have a big room. Good investment to have good beds instead investing in hubby’s home theater seating right? of Since birth the boys were with me on the king size bed until we run out of space (got to separate them as they start to turn 360 degree and kick each other). I tried putting one baby in cot and QQ on the king size bed with one baby. She ended up kicking her poor brother :(

  • Therefore our arrangement obstacles are:
  • 3 kids have to be separated into their own beds
  • All side must be railed so that they do not roll down

Kor-kor: Now that his cot is adjust a little bit lower than mine, he will not be able to fall out. By sleeping next to me, I can easily pick him up and place him beside me during breastfeeding. Once complete, I just let him *ROLL* back to his bed.

Di-di: This lucky fella has the biggest space to twist and turn around. I have to place a booster beside him so that he would not roll down to QQ. However he still prefer to snuggle close to me at times.

QQ: Using my old single bed, shifted up from my mum’s place. It even comes with a side rail so QQ will fall.

Although our bed is huge, hubby refuse to sleep with us on the king size bed. Too much pressure, he said. So he prefers to sleep on his own. Can guess where?

  19. well, from my experience of having 3 kids, hubby is sleeping in another room. ;)

  20. My hubby also sleeps in another room most of the time coz he just feels very ’stressful’ sleeping with a bb in the middle!

  21. hehe, i was going 2 ask u where hubby sleeps but u finished the post with that question. i’m guessing the answer is same as my current situation now, hubby is on the mattress on the floor. i sleep on my queen size with rye li on my right (hubby sleeps on the floor at her side) while on my left side is the baby cot.

  24. That’s a great arrangement but where is hubby sleeping lah? hahahaha :D:D:D

  25. QQ’s room?

  26. Your hubby must be sleeping in other spare room all by himself. Maybe can consider move QQ sleep with dad then slowly train her to sleep by herself in her own room.

    my guess is …huby is either in next room or on the floor lar!!

  28. I’m guessing on the floor too. :) Wah… didi is the privileged one. Get to snuggle close next to mommy.

  29. On the floor. Wuah you have king size bed. That is nice. Hehe.

  30. Your room is very big to accomodate a king size bed and other beds all in a row. My guess is daddy sleeps on the floor at the foot of the bed.

    i think your hubby is sleeping on the floor…..

  32. Haha…this is the only benefit living by the jungle side, house big and cheap! luckily we can arrange in such a way everyone can sleep together as a BIG family.

    yes, poor hubby sleeps on the floor on our bed foot.
