I'm only 6 weeks along but I'm already thinking about how we'll fit a baby into our 2 bedroom condo. It's a good size - about 1250 sq ft - and our master bedroom is particularly spacious. We have a ton of bedroom furniture but we could easily rearrange to create a "nook" for the baby in our bedroom. I'm leaning towards this over transforming our guest bedroom. It's a lot smaller so we'd have to store all the bedroom furniture that's in there, and we wouldn't have any place for visitors/helpers to stay.

Still, I hear a lot about how babies' little noises and grunts in the night make it hard to get a good night sleep, and that as they get older, its hard to develop good self-soothing habits if they know you are right there. I guess if it's that bad we could roll the crib into the hallway and shut our door?

What do you all think?
