17 week old - where to put her down to sleep

[Jellywellyfish]

Hi,
I have a 17 week old daughter and I’m just wondering what others do with babies this age regarding bedtime sleep.
I want to follow Current guidance and only have baby sleep in the same room as me until 6 months of age. At the minute my daughter is falling asleep at bedtime at around 7.30/8pm. She sleeps in my arms and I take her up to bed around 9/9.30pm but this does wake her and it can take an hour to fall asleep again

do other parents put their babies down in their room at their babies bedtime at 7/8pm and just stay upstairs for the night? How do you do it so baby gets undisturbed sleep?

Once they had grown out of the Moses basket they went upstairs in the cot with a baby monitor on.

I just kept mine downstairs with me in the moses basket until 10pm ish and then took her upstairs when I went to bed. I did a bedtime routine but just didnt put her in the cot. Then at 6months i started putting her to bed upstairs and leaving her with the monitor. We would creep into bed at 10.30pm. She went into her own room at 8months (or rather we moved out, as her room had been our spare room so we had been sleeping in there with her).

I think from 12 weeks my ones bedtime was 7pm and I used to put him down in crib in bedroom and spend my evening in the living room (small flat so didn't need baby monitor)
You could invest in a baby monitor and have your free time in the evening downstairs, definitely don't feel you need to stay in your bedroom when baby goes to bed!
We have white noise playing so he normally doesn't hear us when we come to bed (he's 9 months now)

Cot in your room with baby monitor.

At that age I put her in the cot in my room with the monitor on until I went to bed

I have twins. I had two next-2-me cots upstairs and another two cots downstairs.

I put them to bed in the downstairs cots, and then crept around having my dinner/watching TV on very low.
At about 10:30/11:00pm, I carried them up to bed. They generally woke for a last feed and then into their next-2-me cots.

I wanted to be in the same room as they were sleeping at all times (except for a trip to the bathroom etc) until 6 months.

Me and DH took it in turns to sit in our room with each of the DC until they turned 6 months. We just put headphones in and watched something on our phone.

Does she wake in the night? If so could you keep her downstairs until that first wake and then go up?
If she doesn't naturally wake in the night then I would just put her to bed upstairs and come back down myself, with a baby monitor if your house is big.

At that age I just treated 7-8pm sleep as a nap. They stayed with us downstairs and fed, napped on us or in bouncer or played on on floor. In summer ideal time for a walk as cooler.
Then took them up about 9.30pm to final change and feed before then went to ‘night’ sleep in our room.

I just went to bed when DD did. She slept terribly though so it was more out of survival than anything else.

When they started falling asleep at 7 ish we moved to doing bed time in their cot in their room. They had a feed at 10pm and at that point we brought them into our room for the night. It helped get them used to their cot. My youngest was full time in her own room soon after this though as she dropped her 10pm feed.

We also did naps in their cot at this age.
