Storytime: We had never slept with my first born daughter in bed with us, but we were on a vacation and rented a house with our family members so all we had was one bedroom for the three of us so we gave it a try. She's a very busy sleeper, always moving and rolling around. She was almost 3 years old and was going through some random night terrors occasionally. On our second night at the rental house she had a bad dream, she screamed then threw her legs up and started kicking violently, I was half woken by the scream and before I could assess or understand what was going on the heel of her right foot kicked back down into not one but both of my testicles.
I think I cried louder than her. They hurt for 6 days. I never slept with her or her future sister ever again.
