Famous mummy blogger Constance Hall commented on her reaction to sleeping on a mattress in her living room with her kids.
The 38-year-old mother from Western Australia spoke openly about the family’s “sleeping nest” in a detailed Facebook post.
The photo shared online shows three happy children lying on a mattress and another child hugging their family dog on the sofa.
The bed is placed in the middle of the room and stretches out next to two leather sofas, creating a large sleeping area with blankets and pillows.
“I slept with my babies almost all the time, loved it, still love it,” Constance wrote.

The 38-year-old mother from Western Australia spoke openly about the family’s “sleeping nest” in a lengthy Facebook post (pictured). The photo shows three happy children lying on mattresses and another child hugging their family dog on the sofa.
Constance revealed that she and her seven children have lived with her mother for about 12 months, and her five children sleep in the living room.
“Even though it’s a four bedroom house, two of the rooms are unused and we have two mattresses on the floor in the living room, surrounded by sofas.”
“Last night I was lying on top of one of them with 5 kids around me, rambling through giggles, fights, wobbles and 4000 ‘I love you’s, and when I finally fell asleep I felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction.”
The busy mom says she can be comforted when her kids have nightmares and is glad to know they never wake up alone.
‘It’s not for everyone. It doesn’t have to be like that,” he added.

Sleeping arrangements allow the family to spend extra time together in their bedrooms rather than being separated and alone.
Despite receiving negative comments before, hundreds of moms shared praise in response to the Facebook post.
“It’s simply beautiful and I wish that was the norm. I never took my kids out of sleeping with me, I would never deny them that comfort and that security,” one mother wrote.
‘I couldn’t love him anymore! What a healthy attitude towards parenting. You look like a wonderful mother, ”wrote another.
A third added: “You’ll never look back and think, ‘I spent too much time with my kids’.”
Constance said she put her sleep schedule into practice after speaking to a “baby-whispering midwife” who said that mealtimes and eating should be “a pleasant part of life”.
“I applied a similar ethic to our sleep routines,” Constance wrote.
More importantly, it allows the family to spend extra time together in their bedroom rather than being separated and alone.
It comes after Constance took some time to reflect on her relationship with her husband, Denim Cooke, whom she married in 2018.
Constance takes time to reflect on her relationship with her husband, Denim Cooke, whom she married in 2018. She lives separately from her husband after her husband nearly died in 2020 after falling off a motorcycle.

“He just got out of life after the accident,” he said.
Denim, who had recently escaped from a spell in prison despite driving with ice on his body and an uncontrolled baby in his car, was involved in a horrific motorcycle accident in August 2020.
The 46-year-old was flown to a trauma ward at Royal Perth Hospital with seven broken ribs, punctured lungs, multiple infections and brain damage after falling off his bike.
“I think I was very excited when he woke up from the accident. And there was some kind of false hope,” Constance said.
“I spoke to the doctors and they told me the jeans were unmotivated. The damage to his frontal lobe took away everything he might have had before.
“Her psychiatrist said recently and she was so smart, ‘She loves you. He loves his family. It’s supposed to work for you instead of taking you and everything you’ve ever done and given… and that’s not going to happen. unless he is removed from the family home.”
The couple began looking for a health facility to get away from each other for a few nights and recuperate, but she constantly reminded Constance that she “turned into a man’s shell.”
Last Post? This photo, which Constance, Denim and their son Raja shared on July 23, appeared on his wife’s Instagram account for the last time.
They argue, and the mother of seven could see their relationship gaining momentum.
Denim went to stay with his “best friend,” who lives in Esperance, a 10-hour drive from Constance’s Margaret River home.
“I spoke to him the next day and he just had that light on his face…as if he’d been back to normal. He was clean. He was awake, alive and surrounded by lovely people,” she said.
Her empathy, compassion, and longing quickly returned, and Constance thanked her husband’s psychiatrist for intervening to “help” them.
