We dont do exactly that with DD but she has most of her day sleeps out with us in the lounge room in her rocker. She sleeps at night in her cot. Has slept through the night since 4 weeks old and have never had an issue and shes a fantastic sleeper. Will sleep anywhere.. on the floor, rocker, your lap, pram etc. We did similar with DS and hes always been a great sleeper also.
With our three babies we always made sure they slept in a variety of places. From newborn they slept in the cradle beside my bed at the start of the night, then I'd lift them in with me to co-sleep when they needed that (and a feed)... We also had a big Emmaljunga pram with a basinette attachment (photo HERE) that was used for day sleeps alot. They also slept in their big cots and a port-a-cot that I had set up in the loungeroom. So that's about 5 places. I think because they had this variety from day 1 they got used to it. The best thing about it was that as they got a bit older and more aware of their surroundings they still maintained this flexibility. Great when you are staying overnight somewhere other than home.
