do your LO's share cribs?

    for about a month now, our LO's have slept in their own cribs after transitioning from a co-sleeper.
    does anyone find that their LO's sleep better together? Or is there too much movement.

    My two slept together for the first 6 months. Jake started waking Emma up at that time by rolling all over, so I put them in separate cribs next to each other.

    My two shared a crib until they moved to beds at around 2 years old. Now they have their own beds but most often still sleep together. They never slept as well separately as they did together & seemed to be accustomed to the others movements because it never really woke them up.

    Mine have slept seperate since they were born. NICU split them up and once they came home they didn't seem to like to be together. I think everyone is different so go with whatever works best for you and your babes :)

    I wish mine would have slept together. I think it's darling! However, they have been separate all along. NICU separated them and they never got used to one another.

    Mine did until about 3 weeks ago.. as soon as Miles discovered how to roll over, we had trouble. He's all over the place! He would have steamrolled Ozzy about 10 times a night.

    My boys slept together for the first 4 months. Then they were waking each other up at night and we found they slept much better when they were not in the same crib. However they had to be able to see each other or they were not happy so their cribs were right next to each other until they were 14 months and new shanigans started.

    You have to do what works best for your babies. If they sleep better together, put them together. If they don't sleep well with each other, keep them in their own cribs.

    Mine slept together for the first couple of months, and then after that they slept together for naps. When they were infants they definitely slept better when they were next to each other in the same crib.

    Mine slept together in a co-sleeper until about 5 months old, when they seemed to roll around too much and wake each other. At that time, we transitioned them to their cribs.

    Mine still share a crib, although last night I woke up to find Liam laying across rylee's back, they looked like the letter *t*. :lol: We're hoping to finish their bedroom soon so we can try splitting them up.

    We stopped at 4.5 months because they kept kicking each other in the head.

    My boys sleep in their own crib from the 2nd week on. We tried the bassinet first, then to put them in the same crib and they just could not settle all night. Ever since they are in separate cribs they sleep much, much better.

    We stopped about a month ago (at 7 months) because Ben has started clawing Emaline in the face every time they're together. So until he gets that under control they won't sleep together.

    i was wondering bc maybe they would sleep beetter if they were next to eachother? the one LO sleeps the entire night. i had to get up once to re-insert his paci and it was because his other brother got up like 5 times. his cry woke him up. the one LO is having a hard time sleeping lately.
