How long will baby sleep in your bedroom?

Question

The NHS in the UK recommend baby sleeps in your room for 6 months. If you already have a little one, how long did they sleep in your room? If this is your first, what are your plans?

Answer

With each of our girls in was different. With my first, she slept lightly at night and we would wake her up, so I put her in her crib in her room kind of early. She didn't like being in our room at all. With my second, she was with us for about six months, maybe longer. She only slept well if I was close to her or holding her. She did not ever want to be alone in her room. Each baby is different and has a bit of personality and preferences even from the beginning.

Answer

my almost 3 year old still sleeps with us! this next baby will also probably sleep with us until they no longer want to

Answer

Our oldest is 2.5 and still in her toddler bed in our room. Our second little arrived 5 weeks early, on 8/3, and will likely be in our room until 2 or so then her and big sis will share a room.

Answer

This is my first baby but I am thinking 6 months or so!

Answer

I'm planning for about 2 months. But, it's my first, so it might end up being a bit longer. I think his eating and sleeping habits will predict when I feel comfortable moving him.

Answer

My 1st was about 5 months, this one may be longer as they will be sharing a room and don't want them waking each other!

Answer

With my son he was 9 months in our room still. My nephews both went in there own room at 8 weeks old.

Answer

It depends on when we move. Right now were in a studio apartment so if shes born before we are able to get into a house then she will stay in our room for a few weeks after we move plus however long we still live in this apartment. If we manage to get the house before shes born, then she will sleep in with us for only the first few weeks and then get moved to her crib (depending on how long it takes to get her crip and set it up)

Answer

Our son slept in a bassinet in our room for the first 2 months. I feel like he started sleeping for longer periods once he was in his own room, so I may have our daughter start sleeping in her room sooner.

Answer

Our son slept in our room until he was 4 or 5 weeks old, then we moved him to his room and his crib. We plan on doing the same with our little girl.
