When is a good point to transition Baby 2 into Baby 1’s room? Baby 2 has only just started sleeping through the night, so I want to make sure that skill is solid before we make a move, but (con’t)

Is there anything else to consider or keep in mind before they are moved into the same room? Baby 1 is really a toddler at about 2.5 years old. His room is huge.

Is baby 1 still napping? I’d try a few naps first if you can. There’s a bit of a risk the toddler will get reaaaaaally excited about having the baby in his room and then they’ll keep each other awake.
Also I found sleeping through the night was patchy. My son kept getting constipated or sick and couldn’t settle. So if baby 2 has a rough week, would you move him out? Or risk him waking up baby 1?

I assume you don’t have a third bedroom? If you do I’d leave baby in own room. Assuming the toddler sleeps well, I wouldn’t want any chance of messing it up!

Yes, still napping. And we do have a guest bedroom, so I would for sure move either one of them out of the room if there was something that would disturb the other’s sleep. Most likely that will be when Baby 2 goes through various sleep regressions it gets stuck when he learns to roll over, etc.

Hey ladies. I had a miscarriage July 2021 and my cycle started back up not long after. Then in January it just stopped. It’s been 3 months without my period and not sure what could be causing it (I’m not pregnant). My diet hasn’t changed and neither has my activity. I run marathons but I’ve been doing that for years now and it’s never impacted my period prior. I have an appointment to see my OB in a week but wondering if any of you experienced this.
