My dd has just turned 2 and has been co-sleeping with us since she was 5 months old. I have loved having her close to me (most of the time) but now I am 14 weeks pregnant and dh has been suffering from back problems so I think the time has come to move her out of our bed. I suffered from bad anxiety after she was born and I have improved a lot since then but I still have a mental block about her being in her own room at night. I am from a large family and didn't sleep in a room alone until I went away to university so it doesn't seem natural to me. I was thinking of trying to move her to a bed in our room but my sister thinks this will make things harder on her in the long term and that it would be better to make a clean break now. I really don't want to turn her life upside down. Has anyone been through similar or have any advice for me?
