My DS is almost 8 months. I think he has slept his cot about 10 times all up. We took his cot down the another day because I thought there wasn't much point trying to get him into it now. At night he sleep with us. During the day I have started putting him in his own bed. He has a car bed which is very low and has sides (If you type car beds into ebay you can see what I mean).
