My daughter came into my room early this morning, snuggled into my arms and then passed out - but not before whispering to me, "I love you!"
Haha I had been about to get up but just enjoyed the moment for a bit... I really do love it when the kids come into our bed. They usually sleep through the whole night in their whole bed so it's not an every day thing, but I probably wouldn't even mind it if it was. I'm sure they will grow out of this phase soon, and I'll be missing it all soon enough!

They actually never have!! They do come in to ask us for things but go back to bed, (like water/potty)

Don't mind! He comes into our bed around 4 or 5 and then sleeps several hours more. I definitely prefer this to a kid waking up at 5 or 6...

It happens way too often so I'm a little burnt out at the moment, lol

My toddler is in our bed every night around midnight. I'd love the occasional cuddle, but it usually involves lots of kicking and rolling around. Of course I value the sleep I do get more than trying to break the habit right now.

It's not something mine do, but I'm okay with that because I like my space!

It happens mostly when my DH travels, so I don't mind it at all!

They don't do it. My daughter though, she's normally the first person up so she will get out of bed and come into bed with us. But she's not content to lay down next to me, she had to lay on top of me and will start crying loudly if I try to put her next to me. So it is sweet, but it's also not great at 5:30 in the morning when I could potentially sleep a bit more.

I don't mind the occasional visitors, but I wish they'd sneak! They wake me up before crawling in (usually in the early AM, not at night).

Happens weekly. I am not bothered and cuddle back! I asked her if she told her kindergarten class that she still sleeps in her parents' bed. She looked at me horrified and said, NO!

DS is still in a crib so there is no sneaking, but he now wakes up every night/early morning and wants to sleep in our bed. DH has been away for a few weeks so right now I don't mind the company, but I don't love having to go get him. Also, when it's all three of us it is too crowded.

My 3.5 year still doesn't connect that she can do this. She sits up in bed and cries for us. But if she does it super early we happily bring her in our bed for more cuddles and sleep.

I wasn't a fan when LO would climb into our bed every night. We had to give him an incentive to stay in his room, and luckily it worked. He rarely comes in our room anymore, but when he does join us in bed, it is very welcomed. I miss it.

Coming into our bed? Yes. Coming into our room? A little bit. He has a sleeping bag on the floor of our room that he knows he can use any time. So he'll come in, stand next to my side of the bed and say "Here, Mommy" until I wake up to put his blankets on him. He usually goes right back to sleep.
