[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After 6 weeks, your baby should start to sleep through the night. The only thing sleeping in the baby's room is going to do is wake the baby up. Get a sleep monitor and sleep peacefully in your room. It is common for the baby to wake up a bit at night and chat to his or herself - only rush in if the baby does not seem to be able to self soothe after 5 or 10 minutes.

***Time to you will seem to go very slowly. The baby will not feel abandoned if you let him or her try to self soothe for 10 minutes.

Make sure it is seriously dark in the baby's room - black out curtains are a must because babies are very tuned in to small changes in light and you don't want to be waking up at 5am every day this summer.

This advice will save you years of sleep problems. (Mom of 5 here - ask me how I know!)[/quote]
OP here - FTM but everything I have ever read about safe sleep practices indicates that room sharing is important for the first 6 months...[/quote]

That’s because doctors treat you like the wrapper the baby came in, rather than a human being. Do whatever gets you sleep.  [/quote]
