On the sleeping - With tori we had her in her own room from the first night but this time with charlotte we have her in with us in the cradle and then she will hopefully move in with tori in about 6 months. I really would like to keep a spare room available.
I am finding it much easier this time having charlotte with us coz she is just there when i have to get up to feed her.
I tend to have her sleeping in the rocker during the day, out with me whereever i am in the house and then in the cradle at night. I think this is actually working for us too as in she knows the difference between day and night sleeps. I am guessing that as she is more alert and able to be woken by noise i will have to use the cradle during the day too though.

Night all! My little princess has just gone to bed and now her mother must do the same
