How big is your house?

We don't have a toddler but do have lil Phoenix. We live in a 2 bedroom unit in a large complex and it's quite small. We definately have plans to move out soon as bubs already looks big in his portable baby bath. I couldn't even imagine him learning to crawl here.

We have quite a big house (altho it doesn't seem that big when the gremlins rampage thru it!), four bedrooms so Maya has her own room and the gremlins share. I'm using the fourth bedroom as an office/spare room so will turn that into a nursery for baby at some stage before it's born.

We are in a 3brm Villa. The living room is quite small, but it will do. The kitchen however is big, not sure why we don't spend alot of time in there actually.

Cooper is in with us for the time being. It's fine. Mind you with Dh's snoring and Coopers sleepy noises sometimes I wonder if I should move out to the lounge!

Not sure what we'll do once he's older. We don't want to move as we love our house and the rent is way below market rent for our area.

We have a small-ish 2 bedroom flat - the lack of a back-yard gets me more than anything... We're TTC, and baby will be in with us until we get around to moving somewhere. Seb is a light sleeper, so we'll see how he is when older.

4 bedrooms here and love it all the kids get there own room

Our neighbours have their toddler (3) and baby (1) in the same room. It works fine except if one is awake, they are both awake. IYKWIM!!

We are in a four bedroom house. Currently we have a relative living with us, but she will be going before bubs is due. The only downside for us is having rellies come to stay, w now have no where to put them!! LOL

We have 3 bedrooms + 1 for our boarder + 1 which is our study. So Hannah and Briona are currently room-sharing. We have had a variety of room-sharing tries, including when we were in a 3bdrm when Briona was born.

So some little glimses for you:
I have found it hard to room H & B because Hannah wakes far easier than Briona. As a result she chats a lot particularly first thing in the morning and Briona gets grumpy. It's a personality thing, B has always been that way!

Kryssi has a far easier going personality and she and Hannah have roomed before, quite successfully. She's about to move out of the cot which is why we have halted that for a while.

When Kryssi was born I kept her in our bedroom until her night sleeping had settled somewhat, then moved her in with Hannah (then 3) who didn't wake when I went in for feeds twice nightly.

Last month we went away for a week-long holiday in a two bedroom house, so all the girls went in together. They loved it and Kryssi even learned to scream until the older girls came to bed as well LOL

It's certainly worth a try - keep baby in your room for the first month (in bassinette) if you can, then move them in together and see how it goes. Because your older one is so young he'll probably settle into it fairly easily; if not you can make the moving decision then.

I know a family in a two bedroom house and their 3 kids share. It works for them but they have done it from day dot and the kids have grown with it

big house and yet still not enough room here...4 bedrooms, and ella has her own ensuite on her bedroom as we all do....not sure we will ever have enough room reallly.
