My DS went into his own room at 2 months which is right next to ours but he has always slept through the night. He was in a basinett in our room for the first couple of months which was nice except our room is tiny. So moved the basinett into his room and then at 6 months moved him into the cot everyone is different xox

We moved my daughter into her own room at 6 months. She now sleeps all night (12 hours) and when she wakes up in the morning, she just talks to herself, claps, waves, etc. until I come get her. Sometimes I don't get her for 30 minutes or so. She has no problem chilling by herself (she's not very awake sometimes).

Well I was nervous about putting my son in his own room down the hall from us. He started waking in the night and the sleeping in our bed was just not working out, not to mention my husband and I were in need of sleep and alone time. So one day we just decided to do it and his sleeping has been so much better ever since and he used to cry when we woke up alone but now he just plays or talks until I go in to get him. All of us are happier and more rested. You could set up a baby monitor system too, at this age they should be able to sleep the night through but all babies are different. Do what works :D good luck

My 9 month old is still sleeping in our room. Im afraid to move him out because a couple days ago he cried in the morning at 430 and i didnt even wake up with him his dad got up and then woke me up but i was so surprised i didnt wake up!! that has never happened before. now i worry everytime we go to sleep. The only problem i have with him in our room is i go to bed later than he does and when i go in the room to go to sleep he often wakes up and has trouble falling back asleep. He thinks it is time to wake up then.

Our son slept in his crib in our bedroom until he was 6 months old, then we moved him in to his own bedroom which is next to ours. I have the babyalarm on at night as well, just in case I wouldnt hear him. But he sleeps great, and has not reacted in a negative way what so ever. We are very happy to have our bedroom back. My boyfriend is a very noicy sleeper (talks and snores) so our son would react to this, and then I would react to him.. and the only one that had a good night sleep was my boyfriend!
I beleive that it is important to have our grown-up space too, and the bedroom is a great place for that. We are very happy with this arrangement, it suits our little family perfectly! :)

I still co-sleep with my July08 baby... the 3 (almost 4) year old is in with us ATM as well. She actually went in to her own room before her sister arrived, just before her 3rd birthday, but has slowly returned to our big bed. I'm not too worried just now, we have a king sized bed. I guess at some point we'll have to move both girls, but we're in a 3 brm house and the 15 year old has her own room, our 12 year old boy was sharing with his little sister, but we'll have to rethink it and maybe put the 2 little girls together and we'll find DS some space of his own, maybe the dining area or halve the living room. Still thinking LOL
