B1 went into a bassinette and then a cot in his own room, and we battled every night for almost a year to get him to sleep. Poor dear would fall asleep from exhausted crying about 11pm- we tried everything, then put him into bed with us and hes great, hes now 2.5 and wanting his own bed- which is great because we have B2 now, B2 has a basinnette and sleeps in it in daytime, but at night hes in with us, we have our bed against a wall and have baby next to wall, adult, baby, adult on the outside. Soon B1 will move into his own bed and room- but at his pace. This is the way we work. My husbands chinese and most chinese co-sleep with their babys
