Cem has never slept in our bedroom, he went straight into his own room. We put a bed into his room and i slept in there for the first 5/6 months. Then i moved out. We felt it was best for Cem to always sleep in his own room. So at first he got used to it with me there for comfort. when he was around 5 months i would give him his last feed at about 5am and them go back into my own bed room. It also ment that if Cem had a bad night i was the only one disturbed which ment that
DH was wide awake to take over in the morning whilst i had a lay in and court up on lost sleep.
After 6 months he had a monitor in his room.
If he is ill then i go sleep in his room rather than have him in our's. This has worked for us Cem has only ever slept in his own room and we have never had an problems with him not wanting to go to bed or waking up in the night distressed.
