AIBU?

[Rose1999]

Baby's dad is NOT happy.

My 8 month old seems to be going through a regression so that, coupled with her previously up 1-2 hourly anyway meant that I couldn't take much more lack of sleep. It was affecting every part of my life.

My daughter sleeps better in my bed so I have been reluctantly co-sleeping for both of our sakes.

Baby's dad (who lives with us but only since baby was born and I really wish he'd never moved in but that's a whole other thread) is having to sleep on an airbed in baby's room because he smokes (and has a drink at the weekend). He's not happy about it, but as I currently don't have another bed in the house, what am I meant to do? He thinks he should be allowed in the bed. I've told him for ages we need a single bed incase this happened but he always dismissed it.

I really don't need this along with my immense tiredness and general worries.

AIBU?

You are not being unreasonable! You effectively have two children in the house: one baby and one surly teenager.
We had a double futon (which we could fold easily into a sofa in the day if needed) in our baby's room so I sometimes slept in there with her while dh had the bed. But both of us had comfortable places to sleep. The futon then became our child's actual bed when they were older as it was low to the ground so no danger of falling out and getting hurt, so you could get rid of the cot and just replace with a double futon.
