      Umm, looks like we have a permanent tenant in our bed. CKS, your age group categorization should include a \"when they choose\".

      Yes, ma'am.

        My elder was sleeping in her cot till 2plus, then switch to a single bed (with bed rail). Her bed is beside our bed. She started sleeping in her own room when she was four.


        My younger was sleeping on our bed till age 4plus, because she needed to be nurse in the middle of the nite.

        Now, the elder gal is sleeping in her own room and the younger sleeps in a baby bed next to our bed.

          my elder slept in her own room at 18 months old

          my younger one slept with her sister since she was 5 months old

          the younger they are, the easier to move
          they won't protest so much 😉

            Both my kids co-sleep with us since birth. Don't foresee any changes in near future cos we enjoy this arrangement tremendously. For us, the bonding and closeness from co-sleeping is simply too precious. My hubby always says to treasure it while it lasts. 🙂

              sorry when u guys say sleep together meaning kids & parents sleep on the same bed? or sleep separately but in the same room? I wonder does it make a difference?


              my girl will want to sleep on my bed and i’ll accompany her until she sleeps. thereafter, i’ll transfer her to her cot which is in my bedroom.

                Same bed. It seems like same room is generally accepted. Anyway, during the good old days, my parents managed to squeeze our entire family of 9 people in the 2 rooms of a 3 room flat. But we were all sleeping on our own mattresses, and my parents' bed remain sacred 🙂

                  same bed, same room. co-sleep

                  it started right from birth till now, as i breastfed and it makes things easy.

                  sometimes can b quite irritating when they start conquering every space.

                  other than that, we’re loving it

                    How to train the kids to sleep on their own?


                    My daughter is coming to 5 soon. She doesnt like the idea of sleeping alone. She was taken care by my mother in law since young and she co-sleep with her.

                    My son is having the same problem too and he is 2yo.

                    I tried putting both of them in the same room but they still dun feel secure. We have tried waiting for them to sleep and move out but then they will come in mid of the night and ask one of us to move over.
