My naturopathic doctor recommended it, especially to boost milk production. I thought he would too cold, i love it cold while im sleeping so he's always in a sleeper but is often sweaty, i do have a heater i could use to compensate. Cj's 3 months, did anyone else sleep skin to skin past the first few nights?

Yes!
DD slept skin to skin for almost 2 years. Then I wanted to night wean and started wearing a top. DS gets skin to skin whenever he wants, which is not all that often. As an newborn he got as much as I could give, usually it was when he was in a wrap more than at night.
My kids are 2 and 6 and both still co sleep. DD likes to sleep in her undies and is a snuggler. So she still gets a lot. DS likes to be fully dressed and likes his space unless he is sick. He tends to get more skin for his naps.
I also have gone skin to skin to help with feeling out of since with one of the kids.

Yup. DD is 12 months and every now and then I worry about her being too cold (she despises blankets or sheets) and I put her in a sleeper but one of us always wakes up sweaty if either of us has on more than panties (diaper in her case). I love the skin to skin and just crank the heat as needed.
