Those who co sleep or room in

[rhyb]

My DS Aidens a little bit older than yours and he sleeps in our room but in his own bed and he is a log! Nothing wakes him and on the rare occasion he wakes he self settles sorry.I think having them in their own bed within your room is a good first step to them eventually getting their own room
good luck

Thanks.

My son sleeps in a cot, so moving him just outside our room would be a somewhat permanent step. I don't feel ready! hahaha I've heard plenty of womn say cosleeping has helped their babies to sleep better, but my son slept for 6 hours straight one night when DH and I went out and Granny and GrandDad babysat (so bub was alone in the bedroom). So I'm wondering if we are keeping him up...

Is it actually that when you are in there you notice if he wakes, whereas when he's alone he has to wake up and be unhappy before anyone notices??

No, we live in a small flat, so we hear him when he whenever he wakes no matter where we are. I notice that when my husband turns over, my baby stirs and sometimes wakes.
