Time flies when you're having fun. Or, in Kourtney Kardashian's case, when you're trapped under the weight of a sleeping toddler.
The reality mom-of-three shared a funny snap on Instagram this week that shows that even she has some less-than-glamorous moments. The shot, captioned simply "Throwback," shows a make-up-free, messy-haired Kourtney sound asleep in bed. Her diaper-clad son Mason, then just a baby, is also in the photo, sprawled sleepily across his mom. (See the sweet photo here.)
Now that's reality!
This isn't the first time that Kourtney, who has kids Mason, 6, Penelope, 3, and Reign, 1, with her ex Scott Disick, has given us a glimpse into her life as a co-sleeping mama. A couple of years ago she shared another shot of her sharing her bed with Mason and his little sister Penelope, with tiny feet and fists sticking out in every direction.
Kourtney has long been an outspoken advocate of the family bed. Not long after Mason's birth, the 36-year-old told Parenting magazine, “If I’ve had a long day, then I have that time at night, which is really important to me. He’s such a happy baby, and I really think sleeping together has something to do with that.”
While Kourtney's far from the only celebrity co-sleeper (see below!), there are some famous moms who aren't on board. Take Kelly Clarkson, who is expecting her second child: "A friend of mine was like, 'Our kid sleeps with us every night; it's this whole new way of life,' which is great for her," the singer recently revealed. "But in my world, we're sleeping. I don't want my kid rolling over and hitting me in the face. That's not good sleep."
What do you think of co-sleeping?
These famous moms and dads share their thoughts on sharing a bed with their kids...
Gwen Stefani, mom to boys Kingston, Zuma and Apollo: "I don't want to look back and say, 'Oh my god, I didn't sleep with Zuma that time because I was too tired.' So I'll just snuggle up with him tonight." (REX Features)
Nia Long, mom to boys Massai and Kez: "Well my son still sleeps in bed with me… and I love it," she said when her oldest was 9 years old. “Every now and then I get a foot in my neck or an elbow in my back. But you know when the whole day goes by and he’s busy being a boy and I can’t kiss him goodbye on the first day of school – cause [his girlfriend] Ella’s watching. That’s my time. And we snuggle… and it’s the best.” (PR Photos)

Samantha Bee, mom to Fletcher, Ripley and Piper: "I roll over like a sow and breastfeed in bed," she joked after her second son's birth. "It's worked for us because we're not sleep deprived and have energy to go about our day." (PR Photos)

Elisabeth Rohm, mom to daughter Easton: "It became clear that for our family, cuddling with Easton thruogh the night in our grown-up bed was the most practical, safe and restful of choices. And so that became our new nightly ritual." (PR Photos)
Snooki (aka Nicole Polizzi), mom to Lorenzo and Giovanna: "I co-sleep with my kids and Lorenzo is still in diapers at night, and they both pee and I'm too lazy to the point where I just lay in it," she admitted when her son was 3. "But in the morning I clean it up—and I smell like piss. If my kid's thirsty, I'm going to give them a drink. So they drink all night and then they pee on me." (PR Photos)
Jerry Seinfeld, dad to Sascha, Julian and Shepherd: "My wife has taken to bringing [our son] into our bed at 4 a.m., which is a delightful experience," he once revealed. "It's kind of like sleeping next to a laundry bag with a live collie in it." (PR Photos)
Milla Jovovich, mom to daughters Ever and Dashiel: "I always thought that the Western way of raising kids was so disconnected. Everyone has their cubicle at home, babies go to nurseries, little kids have their own rooms. You are so separated from one another! We have been co-sleeping for years with our daughter and I feel that it's helped us so much to stay connected as a family." (PR Photos)

Kevin Kline, dad to Owen and Greta: "There is a theory that a child has to teach itself to go to sleep, and if every time it cries you whisk them out of their bed - the jury is still out on that. But our kids still sleep in our bed," the actor said of his teenage kids. (PR Photos)
Mayim Bialik, mom to sons Miles and Frederick: "I have never owned a crib. Or a bassinet. We have one bedroom in our house. There are two mattresses in that bedroom. They are next to each other. One is a king-size. One is a full. We all sleep together. In one big bed." (PR Photos)
