Anyone with any practical advice on this? We have a one year old and a three year old and we want to move them into the same room. Baby has been in a cot with us. Both go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time but the baby does often wake around 3 for a feed. She goes back to sleep straight after. Toddler usually sleeps though. I'm worried they'll disturb each other. We tried at 6 month mark but was definitely too soon.

I don’t think it’s fair for them to room share until the little one is sleeping through. How will you manage getting the toddler back to sleep if you are feeding baby?

id work on dropping the 3am feed and then moving them.

We would take the baby out to feed her and then put her down again. She doesn't really stir but yes ideally she'd sleep through and so would toddler but chances neither of them ever wake are pretty small. My eldest rarely slept through without a feed for 18 months.
