Trill and Arimeh - when you moved the older ones out of the cot to make way for the new baby, how did they cope? DD will be 22months when the next bub arrives, and the plan was to move her into a bed and then the cot will be free. But did you do it a while before the new bub came along, or when bub came home from hospital? I;m just worried about whether she'll get jealous about losing her bed to the baby.
Miss M was about 2 months old when he went into his bed.
We let him choose his bed at IKEA and then put it together for him - in front of him, whilst saying it was his bed. We then set both the cot AND his bed up in his room, and said to him at night, this is his bed, and kelti's cot - so he didn't seem fussed at all when we moved it into the other room about a week later and she went into it - cos we'd told him for a week or so that it was kelti's cot and he had his big bed.

Never been any issues here.
