What do you do?
We just let her sleep there. We typically don't even hear her come in but wake up to find her in our bed at some point.

It depends on the time he wakes up. Before 5am he can stay in our bed for a few minutes and have some cuddles but then he has to go back to his bed. After 5am he can stay in our bed. I would be fine with him staying all night but DH doesn't like it so this is our compromise.

Same as kt326. If before 5:30 she can stay for a minute or two then I take her to pee and put back to bed. After 5:30 I will take her to the bathroom and she can stay.

I usually cuddle him for a minute and then tell him it's time to go back to bed. He usually walks back to his room (I go with him), but sometimes D will carry him. I wouldn't mind letting him sleep with us, but he's a starfish sleeper, and lately he's been snoring (allergies), and it's right in my ear, and I'm barely sleeping as it is...

This is a nightly occurrence. DS just turned 2 and sleeps in his toddler bed in our room (we live in a one bedroom apartment). He will fall asleep at 9PM, then DH and I come to bed around 10:30PM. We never hear or feel him climb into bed with us, but I always wake up around 3AM and he's snuggled right next to me. I love it and am fine with him sleeping in the bed with us, my DH is not a fan. We have discussed the logistics with DD comes along in January, but I'm just like "We need a bigger bed!"

Me- He goes back into his bed.
DH- He will go sleep with him in his bed.

My LO is still in a crib but woke up in the middle of the night the other night and I brought him back to bed. He was happy to see Daddy and snuggled both of us. All very sweet but it became clear he was not going back to sleep with us so I asked if he wanted to go back to the crib and he said yes. He slept a couple more hours after that thankfully!!

He goes back. He doesn't sleep if he's in with us. So none of us do. One of us will either walk or carry him back and put him back to bed.

He comes into our room half way through almost every night and sleeps the rest of the night in with us.

Almost three year old started doing this recently. She started climbing into our bed but likes to sleep at the foot of our bed against the end part. We don't really notice bc we are heavy sleepers. I also think she does this around 6am ish.
My plan was to walk her back to bed but I'm usually too tired

I try to let him sleep with us but he's a spreader/squirmer and I just can't. So he goes back to his room.

DD has been doing this every night lately. She walks over with her pillow and blanket. How can I say no? Thank goodness I convinced DH that we needed a king size bed!

She stays with us, regardless of the time. She has to sleep at least 4-5 hours in her room, not that she understands how much time that is. Some nights we have no clue, we just wake up and she's there in between us.

Our rule so far has been "in your room until the sun comes up." I hope we can stick to that. If I were to let her stay in bed with us once, she would expect it all the time, and on top of that we have another baby coming very soon. Edit to add, the other thing is that if she slept with us she would get up at 5 when dh's alarm goes off (and half the time he forgets to turn it off on his days off too) and I bet she wouldn't go back to sleep... And we don't need to be up at 5, so I don't wanna be!

Char's 3, and we carry her back to her room. The only time we've slept in the same bed together was when we went to a family cabin in the winter, and our whole family was in a tiny bedroom together (not enough room for 2 PNPs).
