hey, so i just wanna tell you all about my little girl Alex. she's 3 years old but she's been behaving really odd lately. just hear me out, my wife sets her of in a bed and i find it odd that 30 mins later, a 3 year old finds her way to the couch or the carpet to sleep on. my wife just cant get her to go back after a while. im really more concerned that she likes to sleep ontop of me as well as the way she sleeps. i was taught that if you sleep upright, it'll help your posture, breathing etc (wether or not thats true, its just what i think) i useually come home from work and land straigt on the couch and sleep. but ever since she started to walk, she's been climbing ontop of me and curling up into a ball like a cat to sleep on my back.
my friends told me that maybe she's learning from something by example as kids tend to do that. i know my wife doesn't curl up into a ball on me, and we dont have a cat either, is somthing wrong?

Nope nothing is wrong, your daughter is unique and found a position that is comfortable for her and she enjoys it. It is totally within the range of NORMAL if there is such a range.

Sounds like she just wants the comfort of being close to you. The position is really unimportant - I've seen kids sleep with their heads hanging upside down off the bed.

She just likes to sleep on her daddy. Maybe its soothing. Its easy to hear/feel your heartbeat when she lays on you. No big deal. Just be consistent. If she gets out of bed, put her back in bed. If you have to do it 1,000 times, so be it. That's what it takes sometimes. Otherwise, she's not being abnormal at all.

she just wants to be close to her daddy, she feels safe and protected. Thats the farthest thing from a problem. Enjoy it while you can, your daughter will grow up, sooner than later, and then you will wish she would still cuddle with you on the couch.

Sounds fine to me, on the other hand if she was to start sleeping up trees like a monkey... well then there might be problems!

I think it's nothing to worry about. My son would curl up for a nap when he was young also. He was happy to nap anywhere, as long as he had his blanket with him.
