1. Family co-sleeping takes full advantage of the ease of breastfeeding, as there is no need to go to another room to get one's child. A breastfeeding mother in a "family bed" can easily feed her child without having to wake fully, and can continue to get the important rest she needs. Thus co-sleeping encourages mothers to continue breastfeeding and all of its numerous benefits until the child chooses to wean.
