Company for my ridiculous sleep deprived thoughts..

[Alittlelost0]

I've taken the plunge and moved LO into her own room into a big cot, from her little next-to-me next to me...and I miss her...
She is my last baby and while I totally enjoyed making as much noise as I wanted getting ready for bed, using my bedside table again and watching TV in bed!!! I still miss her. She woke a moment ago so I went into feed her and I just wanted to bring her back in with me. I kept thinking about all those years gone by where cave men would have surely kept their babies all together. It just feels totally unnatural to me to have her sleeping so far away!!!! I want her here! Am I crazy?! Hormonal? Exhausted 🤣
She's not a good sleeper and I'm hoping this will help. She's 8 months old so old enough...but is it really necessary?! Hopefully it will benefit her away from husbands snoring. Anyone else missed their babies once they flew the next to me cribs?

My DS is 9 months and we moved his big cot into our room when he grew out of next2me and started to get a bit more mobile at 6.5 months. We have no intention of moving him to his own room anytime soon.

He still wakes multiple times a night and ends up coming into our bed if he is waking more than usual or seems particularly unsettled. I get much more sleep this way rather than traipsing across the hallway every couple of hours.

Everyone is different but this works for us - if you want baby in your room there is nothing stopping you, to me it feels more natural to have him in with us. Do what works for you ☺️

Thank you for your reply 🙂 she definitely sleeps better in there but every night since she has been into our bed in the wee hours. She seems happy in there and it's not bothering me too much to go to her.
To be honest I still feel the same way about my older two... think I would have everyone in one big bed if I could 😅
Hope your DS starts to give you a little longer to sleep soon! You sound like you're doing a great job for him!
