Do you tell your pediatrician you’re bedsharing ?

@person47 I do. I follow Dr. McKenna’s guidelines for safe sleep aggressively. I give a come at me bro vibe lol so he doesn’t. I can’t tell he doesn’t like it but he doesn’t come right out and say that.
 
@person47 I lie. I know exactly what they’d say, so nope.
We see two different ones in the office and id maybe consider telling the younger one we usually see but don’t see a point. They always reiterate the ABCs of sleep in a scripted sounding way so I just already know to just nod and smile.
 
@person47 3 kids. I lie by omission. They say “where is baby sleeping?” And I say, “we have a 3 sided cosleeper next to our bed.” Did I say she slept there? No lol. But we have it.

I’ve worked with pediatricians and in an ER. I know how wacky they can be about these things. So I just don’t even bother. I also know their education on safe sleep is poor.
