Tiffany I love this! Thank you for sharing your conversation. Now that my daughter is two, we seem to be getting another wave of questions about when she'll sleep alone and I just have no desire to sleep separately from her yet. Its good to know that's normal (and healthy!) through the toddler years, too.

We get comments about how "smart" my almost-2-yr-old is. We co-sleep for contact naps as well as at night. Could this be why she's so "smart"?? (I believe all babies are smart!!) Even other young parents and older parents with plenty of childcare experience comment and say they're impressed. I'm wondering if it could be because of cosleeping? It's not the norm here at all. She's an observant toddler and very social and energetic and bold and independent. But her social skills are my priority, although she's good with puzzles, and coloring, and pretend play, too, and sports already .... She's empathetic and so social. I really wish I could ask the pediatrician for a brain scan because I'm so curious and kind of scared, LOL. But maybe she's normal but it's just that the babies around us don't co-sleep?? What if they're not reaching their full potential because of it?

Obviously I’m biased 😂 but I agree that all children have the potential to be this way 😕
