Sarah - I need to get DD into the cot as I cosleep with DS ATM and three in the bed isn't going to work for much longer as she gets bigger. I'll still be in the same room, just not in the bed with me. I'm hoping that if I get her sleeping in the cot then DS will move to his own bed, we tried that before DD was born and it was working, but I got lazy and gave in to him sleeping with me and I figure when I'm working he only gets me for 2-3 hours a day so why not sleep with me. As much as I want to give to DD the same, I can't have 2 of them sleeping with me for the next 3 years. DD is getting more mummy time anyway as I'm not going back to work as soon with her and I'm going Parttime to begin with when I do return, so she will have lots of Mummy time in her first year. I'll cosleep if she is sick, but do not want her to get the idea that the bed in the nursery is her bed like DS thinks.
Besides if she doesn't sleep in the cot what a waste of money it will have been.
