Thank you all!

Mine have always had their own room but never wanted to sleep in it. They naturally seemed to drift over to their own rooms at about 5-6 years old. It didn’t really bother me so no sticker charts or anything.I’d just set up the room as hers and see what she does. Our children always played in their room during the day and would nap in their cribs as well , they just never slept in their beds at night until later on.

I set up his room with a low twin around 2.5. We’d fall asleep in there more often then my room over time. He stopped calling out for me and would walk into my room around 3, 3.25. The nights he slept through just increased on their own. I never made a big deal about it really, no prizes or stickers. Sometimes I would say something like “wow, you stayed in your room! What a big boy! That helps me get good sleep too!” He turned 4 in September, I think it’s probably been over 3 weeks since he came in. I have a pang if sadness but I have a feeling he’ll show up every now and then, so all ok in my book.

We moved to his own room at 3 and he would come in sometime around 2am. At 4 we told him he could have a fancy lego set if he slept in his bed all night for a week. It worked and now years later we miss it!

My kids never slept in our bed, but I would sleep in their room on a separate mattress/bed. I stopped when the youngest was about 3 and the oldest 5. Easy, but I think it helped having each other

First kid moved to a mattress on the floor and then in to his own room at 3. second kid shared a room with older brother starting at 2. He was very happy to have his own bed in the room with his brother. Neither transition was hard.

Toddler cosleeping was fine. Cosleeping with a 5 year old was not.

DD and I moved from a studio where we shared a mattress to a one bedroom where she got the mattress (and the bedroom) and I got the couch. This was when she was 4.5.

I would lay on her bed and read to her, we'd snuggle, and then I'd leave after five or so minutes. She had no problem sleeping alone.

I'm a single parent. My kid had his own bedroom set up from around 2, around 3 or 4, I made sure he knew how to come find me in the middle of the night, and started putting him to bed in his own bed, and if he wanted me in the night he'd come get me. We had a sticker chart that wasn't "don't stay in your own bed" it was "don't wake up mommy", if he came in and climbed in quietly, he still got a sticker. He gradually woke up less often, and then he was done. No big deal.

At what age did the cosleeping end? And what did the sleeping situation look like when your toddler moved out of your bed?

My almost 3-year-old daughter sleeps in my bed. I’m fine with it. (I’m single, so that’s why I’m saying “I” and not “we.”) We are moving to an apartment where she could have her own room. I know she won’t want that right away because she is used to sleeping with me, but I’m wondering what the next step is here. Toddler bed in my room? Should I set the second bedroom up as her bedroom? Interested in what others have done if the kid(s) started out in your bed (and that was a happy situation).
