Moving baby into toddler's room... tonight! Advice?

Moving 6 mo son into 2.5 yo girl's room tonight for first time. Any advice on how to decrease (in so far as possible) her sense of HER space being invaded? Thanks!

I say, do it enthusiastically. She might follow your lead. I put my infant son (3 mos) to bed in a crib in his brother's room (then, 24 mos), and they loved being 'bedtime buddies'. There was a short period of adjustment as they got used to new nighttime sounds, but I found that they both slept better when they were together than they ever slept alone.

So, talk it up and let your 2 year old have some say on how to get the room "ready" for sharing. She might have some great ideas.

Good luck! - Julia at Midwest Moms
