    DD1 absolutely hated being in the bed with us, but was happy as larry in the cot in our room. i wanted her in my room but after 5 weeks couldnt handle all the grunting and farting that was eminating from her general direction while she slept...kept me awake . so she went to her own room with no fuss.

    with DD2 she was in the bassinet in our room and now is in the cot in our room. she starts the night in her cot and if she wakes for a feed she generally then stays in our bed after that feed. LOVE IT! she loves it and i find i am less tired in the morning than when DD1 was this age in her own room (i feed her lying in bed, no getting up to the other room etc).
    there are times when her grunting (but curiously no farting lol) does get to me (DH can sleep through anything lol) so i just migrate to the loungeroom where we have a mattress hiding under the couch ready to go (2 bdrm house ). it works well for us!

    HTH!
