Ollie was in a bassinet in our room until he was 2 weeks old. Hubby & I found it really hard to sleep as we were both constantly listening out for him. We moved him into his cot in his room (which is right next door) and he adjusted fine. Now he is sleeping 8-9 hours and everyone gets a good sleep

Maya was in with me till 5 mths, mainly coz we didn't have a spare room till then.

The twins are going straight into their own room, I'm getting breathing monitors for them, and their room is right next to ours. Party it's a space thing, and partly coz it saves moving them later.

I also figure that if they are prem and in the NICU I have to go away and leave them anyway so they won't be used to being in the room with me. Although the NICU is pretty noisy and busy so that might be tricky for them to get used to the quiet at home.

I'd like to have our girl's room ready for her to go in when we get home, so that I can decide whether to have her in her own room or in ours.  If the room's not ready by then, (has just had the wall and floor linings torn out!) then that decision is already made for me!  It'd be nice to have the option, though, as being a light sleeper, but a first-time mum, I really don't know which room I'd like her in to start with!  I rekon - give yourself the option of being flexible and don't feel bad if whatever you first try doesn't work for you.

Forgt to mention that first born who was in my room till 9 months old did not properly sleep through the night till around 4 years alwasy woke during the night to hop into my bed and it just became a habit and its me to blame not him it was just so easy to let him in and in the end I didn't even feel him get into the bed. My strong advise is definately in the babies own room from the beginning.
