Our 4 year old has started getting into our bed in the middle of the night and with a baby due in 4 weeks I really need this to stop. My 4 year old is big for his age and there’s just not enough room for the 3 of us in the bed and a lot of the times my other half is getting out of bed and going to sleep on the sofa mid way through the night so he can actually get some sleep (again not ideal with a newborn on the way as I’m going to need his help upstairs with night wakings once baby is here) I’ve told him to carry him back into his own bed rather than him going to sleep on the sofa but he just doesn’t 😫 helpppp please 🙏🏼

Maybe a baby gate on his bedroom door?
