AceShowbiz - Kourtney Kardashian is sharing her experiences as a mother, including her decision to co-sleep with her children. During an appearance on "The Skinny Confidential" podcast, the reality star revealed that her eldest son, Mason, slept with her until he was 7 years old, while her daughter, Penelope, co-slept with her until the age of 11.
Kardashian explained that she believes in following her instincts as a mother and that co-sleeping feels "natural and instinctual" to her. She emphasized that every child is different and that co-sleeping worked for her family.
Despite receiving resistance from her mother, Kris Jenner, Kardashian stands firm in her decision. She values the alignment she has with her husband, Travis Barker, who fully supports co-sleeping with their infant son, Rocky.
Kardashian shared that she has witnessed the benefits of co-sleeping, including improved sleep for both parents and children. She also noted that co-sleeping is a common practice among mammals throughout history.
Regarding privacy and intimacy with her husband, Kardashian said that they find creative ways to coexist, adding that the experience can be "fun."
When asked if there is an age limit for co-sleeping, Kardashian responded that she does not impose restrictions. She believes that each child naturally outgrows the arrangement when they are ready.
In a previous blog post, Kardashian wrote about the evolution of co-sleeping in her household. She explained that each child's sleep patterns differed, and she adapted her approach accordingly.
