What age did your baby move into their own room at night?

DS is three months old and currently sleeps in our room, this is causing some serious sleep deprivation - I am quite good at sleeping through most of his noises but DH suddenly leaps out of bed if he hears any noises that he thinks are a little odd - there are normally 2/3 of these per night - I am sure DH sleeps better when I take DS into nursery and sleep on the futon we have in there - DS goes into big cot or I take moses basket with me. However then I miss sleeping beside DH.

I would be grateful for any info/tips/advice you can provide - I know the SIDS guidelines are that babies should room in until they're 6 months old but I am sorely tempted to shift him out at the moment.

TIA

i moved ds (10 weeks) into his own room a week ago. he's slept fine in there, but i've still been woken by every twitch and snuffle! think maybe i should turn the sensitivity of the baby monitor down a bit...

I think we did between 2-3 months for ds (too right tessasmum!) then he went into another room - didn't bother with a monitor (it was easy to hear when he wanted me!). dd we didn't move out for a lot longer as we only have two bedroom - in fact we moved onto a futon in our sitting room from maybe 8-12 months when she went in with ds. I absolutely cannot sleep in the same room as dd becasue she grins her teeth - urgggh!!!

Thank you for all your helpful messages, we are going to set up DS's monitor and then move him into nursery over the weekend.

Thanks again
