Christina Ricci has confessed her eight-year-old son Freddie still sleeps in her bed.
However, she revealed her nine-month-old daughter Cleopatra is already sleep trained. The actress, 42, opened up to People about her sleeping routine, saying it was "amazing" how quickly her youngest has took to her own bed.
She said: "The fact that I can put her down in her crib and she just goes to sleep when my eight-year-old still sleeps with me is amazing."
She confessed that her first attempt to sleep train Freddie was a nightmare, explaining how he would scream himself hoarse while "banging his head against the crib railing".
Christina continued: "But with Cleo, when we decided to try it and see how she would react to it, she just sort of whined for about seven minutes and then laid down, clutched her little unicorn and went to sleep. It was like she was ready and she wanted to do it, and it was right for her."
