Own room

If it works for you, keep doing it! We haven’t got baby’s room ready yet and he still fits in his Snuzpod so won’t be moving him yet but we’ll do it when the time is right.

Going to share a few pages from a book which discuss this

I’m going to start letting my little one sleep in his own room as of next week, all of his naps are in his cot and I really need some sort of sleep life back. I’m putting a single bed the other side of his room to sleep in there with him for now whilst I some what try to sleep train him which I’m finding hard to do in my room with my partner without waking him etc. hopefully all goes well over the next 4-6 weeks and then he will be in his room full time or I’ll stay sleeping in the single bed for however long is needed

Yes we did at 3 months, helped us all sleep better. His room is right next to us and we follow all the recommendations plus he wears an owlet sock.

Yeah my boy has been in his own room since about 13/14 weeks. He’s sleeping so much better in his own room and he seems to really like the space where he can move about and get comfy. He was in a moses basket before that. I did start with naps first to get him used to the cot and then transitioned from day time naps to bedtime x

@Sophie thanks for sharing, seems like a good read. Good to see lots of citations! What's the book name please? X

My boy is in his own room now, we put him in at about 16 weeks as my partner works shifts and every time he came to bed in the night he was disturbing his sleep so it’s worked so much better for us him being in his own room. We just have the camera on for him for all of his naps and bed time x

In all honesty I don't think it matters when you do it as long they are sleeping in a safe space and are being fed and changed in the night if necessary

My boys been in his own room since 6 weeks and he’s slept so much better since!
He put grew his Moses basket very very fast so didn’t have a choice in moving him

We will be doing very soon as she is outgrowing her next to me (she’s 15 weeks) and I’m not buying another when she’s got a lovely cot in the nursery with the wrapper still on the mattress 😂

I've been thinking when to do it. I'm probably waiting but only because I'm anxious if I don't hear him with the monitor. I'm used to him being in the next to me and its easy to check him occasionally 🙈

Yes I was quite concerned to do it with our little boy but we decided to move him into his own room at 3 months old as he was sleeping all night 7pm to 7am, I thought I wouldn’t hear in case he would wake on the monitor but it’s like parent instinct. You still wake when hearing their wee noises or movements on monitor- doesn’t disturb us as much as when he was in same room.
He wakes up hisself at 7am chatting away and not even crying so glad we done it.
I was concerned for Sid’s as well because they recommend 6 months but felt as he was sleeping through it’s got to be done at some point and to be honest it’s a huge step at any point and his room is next to ours.
