Could they share a room?

I have a 20 month old son and an 8 week old girl. She will be in with us for a considerable amount of time but ideally I’d like them to share a room for 3 or 4 years while they are little but I’m wondering if this will even be possible or I’ll be setting myself up for a nightmare at bedtime. Has it worked for anyone?

My friend has a 7 year old and a 2 year old who share a room and have done from around a year old. At times they wind each other up and bedtime is a nightmare but otherwise its pretty smooth.

We live in a 2 bed flat currently and I have a 2.5 year old and a 1 month old. They will eventually be sharing a roo. Until we can find a different place. X

My friends kids share a room, the girl is three years older than her brother. He was only about 6m when they started sharing a room. The girl sings to him in the morning, it seems really sweet. Also I shared a room at times with my brother for a quite a while, we’re 1.5 years apart. I remember we fought a lot in the last years of sharing (around 7-9 years old) but we did that anyway, thoughout our childhood 😅
