Abit of a long one I apologise. so sit down with a cup of coffee 🤣🤣

Okay, sorry abit of a long one here(I like to ramble on) but I really need some advice on what YOU would do if this was your situation.. We have a 2 bedroom house my 2.5 year old boy is in 1 room and my 11 month old is in with us. We have the bigger room. I really want to move little one in with his brother but I just don’t know how we can go about doing that? My oldest still needs his dad to lie in the bed with him until he falls asleep, my youngest is a very very very light sleeper so I feel we wake him up constantly when we are coming to bed. Thankfully we have managed to get our youngest to fall asleep independently. But we are worried one of them would wake the other up. Do you think it’s wise to move them to the bigger room? Our worry also with this is we have a big wardrobe which was a struggle getting into the house/room when we moved in so would be another struggle moving it with us but I don’t think it’s big enough for all they’re stuff if that makes sense???? It’s basically a 3 doored one. double doors a wardrobe and a single door at the side with like 5 shelves. Do we just brave the situation and put youngest in the room with us brother? Who would you put down first? Oldest(with his dad) then youngest? But what if the youngest wakes oldest when he is self settling. Awww I really don’t know what to do. But everytime youngest wakes up and sees me that’s it he wants in the bed and does not settle until he is. What can I do? So sorry for the long post. But I’m stuck. And would love to get some sleep back for not only me, but my youngest too❤️

Honestly I have the same situation!!! My kids have basically the same age gap and have the same struggles 🤣 I put them in the same room, for the first week it was bliss I had my room to myself! But it didn't last long 🤣my boy would torture my youngest in the mornings then he figured out how to climb into her cot which would normally be cute right? No. He would jump around like a loony and I was terrified of him jumping on her by accident and really hurting her so she ended up back in my room 🙈

Kinda the same situation but your age gap is bigger. We waited until youngest was 15 months and put both kids in their own toddler beds.the do occasionally wake each other but not often

In the same situation!! I put baby down first then eldest but my baby is a heavy sleeper Once hes down hes down unless he wakes up for a feed Eldest is 2.5 and youngest is 8 months x
