DS surprised us since he's a sound sleeper, her cries were super soft though too. She only slept with us until she was 4 weeks, then transitioned to her crib in their room (which was a step away from our room so she never had much time to wake DS up). They did fine! We had a pretty gender neutral rug, wall art for each gender on their own sides of the room but there wasn't really a theme. DS misses sleeping in the same room as DD (we bought a bigger house since we didn't know how long it could have continued). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-having-two-los-sharing-a-room#post-1321674 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 01:31:15 +0000 googly-eyes 1321674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are planning on doing this when we have another, but dd is a light sleeper these days so I don't know...Just following! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-having-two-los-sharing-a-room#post-1321621 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 23:29:56 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1321621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids (girl then boy) are 26 months apart, and we plan to have them share a room, but right now they're in their own rooms. We will most likely move DS into DD's room after he hits one year. DD's room isn't decorated at all (because we moved when she was a year old and didn't do anything to her room once we moved), but her blackout curtains are a sage green… so I think we will stick with green/beige/whites/grays. </p> <p>I'm really looking forward to them rooming together because I actually think it'll improve their sleep! I think knowing their sibling is asleep in their room with them will give them comfort and help them both sleep better. We're having more issues with DD's toddler sleep right now (waking up from nightmares, running into our room in the MOTN, not wanting to fall asleep by herself) than DS's (he's been STTN since 5 months and he's 10 months now). I think once they both become toddlers having that companionship will help them both sleep more peacefully (that's my hope anyway! You know what they say about the best laid plans… haha)… </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-having-two-los-sharing-a-room#post-1321619 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 23:29:27 +0000 winniebee 1321619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@stargal: I missed that you are pregnant. Congrats!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-having-two-los-sharing-a-room#post-1321560 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 22:37:22 +0000 polkadots 1321560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO's will share a room. We have three rooms total, they will share a small office size room to sleep in and the bigger bedroom will be a toy room to share. We don't plan on moving the new baby out of our room until a year or so, there will be 32 months between them when he arrives. I think we will stick to a very neutral room with whites tans and browns. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-having-two-los-sharing-a-room#post-1321378 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 20:49:58 +0000 matador84 1321378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, ours will be 17 months apart and boy/girl. We currently have a 2 bedroom house. DS is the older and has his own room, currently in a crib, but we just put a twin bed in the room. DD will be in our room for the 1st year in a porta crib and then when she start STTN we'll move them in together. By that point, DS should be out of the crib and convert that into a toddler bed OR ideally move him into the twin bed and DD into the crib and later toddler bed.</p> <p>DS wasn't a good sleeper until around a year. There's no way I could have had him sharing a room prior to that. The friend that lent me the porta crib had her daughter in it the first year, so that's why I'm just planning on keeping DD in our room for 1 full year and then moving them in together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-having-two-los-sharing-a-room#post-1321365 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 20:44:05 +0000 stargal 1321365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Talk to me about it!! In would love to know details! P and baby sibling will be 25 months apart and will def be sharing a room. (Well the first couple of months b#2 will be in our room) but after.that they will share a room regardless of gender.<br /> If you have opposite gender how did you decorate the room?<br /> Are you worried avou sleep issues at alll? </p>
