In stark contrast to the last black-and-white toddler's room I wrote about, here's a bold and bohemian space for little Marlowe. Mom Drea runs a popular blog called Oh Dear Drea and put together an eclectic and happy spot for her sweet little girl.

Before I was a mom, when I thought about co-sleeping I thought it sounded like the worst thing ever. When my twins were born I realized how amazing it was. Everyone in the family bed! It was cozy and sweet and we all slept better. My daughter is still co-sleeping after more than 3 years. I co-slept with my mother well into my pre-teen years (my father worked nights). I feel that the benefits far outweigh the issues of how acrobatic in nature some kids can be in their sleep. (A kick to the mouth at 3 a.m. isn't that bad.)

Just like anything else, there are safe ways to co-sleep and unsafe ways. And it sure isn't for everyone, but for those who are interested, here are 11 ways co-sleeping is beneficial.

This fantastic nursery renovation caught my eye and I knew I had to share. Parents Luke and Brooke took this dark wood paneled room and transformed it into a calming space to comfortably fit their baby boy.

Nick Lachey and wife Vanessa (Minnillo) Lachey welcomed the birth of their first child Camden John Lachey last September, and it seems as though the 98 Degrees singer has enjoyed singing lullabies to their son. He’s enjoyed it so much that he’s releasing an album so that his crooning can soothe other babies too.

And by other babies, I mean other mommies. Because let’s be honest -- the kids probably don’t care who’s singing, so long as they’re getting snuggles from mama during the bedtime routine. But women of baby-making age are the perfect target audience for this album.

Just the thought is horrifying to most parents. A child that can't sleep. Not just won't sleep, but can't. After all, it's lack of sleep that makes the early stages of parenthood so hard for most of us. But we all take solace in the fact that this bleary-eyed exhaustion phase passes. Eventually, our babies will sleep through the night, the bags under the eyes go away, and the brain fog will start to dissipate. Though new mom Jennifer Stella never experienced that relief even as her daughter Haley neared age 2. Little Haley Rivera has not slept one night since being born 18 months ago, and her insomnia has baffled her parents and doctors.

On a rainy Saturday afternoon, my son and I were running around town and I could tell he was becoming more annoyed by the minute. I decided to liven things up with a sing-along. Since it was raining, I started with, what else: "It's raining, it's pouring. The old man is snoring. He went to bed with a lump on his head and didn't --" But I abruptly stopped in the middle of that verse. Wait. What? I never really thought about it before, but this dude "didn't get up in the morning." Does that mean he died?

I quickly changed the lyric to something lame like, "He didn't want to go to work in the morning." To which my son piped, "That's not right." But I didn't want to sing about death and dying to a 4-year-old. It's just too weird. But when I really started to think about it, so many of our favorite childhood songs are totally terrifying. Take a look at the 11 creepiest nursery rhymes we sing to our kids.

What other nursery rhymes should be on this list?

Most of us will never quite understand why toddlers seem to hate taking naps the way they do, but refusing to go to sleep is definitely a trend that doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon. (If only they knew how luxurious and wonderful sleep is ...)

However, I guess some kids will go to greater lengths than others to fight falling asleep at all costs. Like the toddler who was caught on video doing face plants in his crib over and over again.

Yes, face plants.

Strapped in the car seat?? You POOR BABY!!The toddler life is stressful, y’all. Play date after play date, cheerios to be crushed into the carpet and blamed on your baby brother, and endless piles of blocks to be stacked and knocked over. And nap time? Fuhgeddaboudit.

Now some British children at least have a solution to coping with their mad, crazy lives in relaxation therapy. That’s right -- kids as young as three are learning how to self soothe through techniques like massage and fairytale visualization. The hope of these sessions is that the preschoolers will be able to “rid themselves of ‘negative energy.’”
