Sleeping . Doesn't want to be put down

We haven't had her checked out yet. We go to our clinic next week. She did have a fever on the flight over we think because of teething and she does have cleft pallete, which I've heard is more prone to ear infections. It's hard to tell because as a stress response (we think) she plays with the hair around her ears, so it's hard to tell if she has an infection or just playing with the hair around her ears. (Hopefully she hasn't had a infection since we got her!!) Yeah attachment is more important to us than having her in her own crib, I just have read that co-sleeping is one of the harder habits to break ...
