| Finlay is 3 months now... 13 weeks on Wednesday and is still in our room. Tyler was in his own room about 10 weeks.
I can't bring myself to move Finlay though I feel like he's too teeny and helpless to be put on his own?
Is anyone else more protective (not sure if that's the right word but you know what I mean) over second/third etc children? |

| Yes me! Or maybe it's my age and I for sure that Ellie is my last baby. She was in our room till exactly 6 months. She's still in a cot now with her gro-bag and has two bottles per day she is my baby girl |

| A little bit mebbe. I fid it harder to let stuff go. We have been trying to wean awen off her dummy a bit and ive found it hard to as its a big part of her babyhood, same with when i gave up bfing. None of its stopped me doing it but I deffo feel like every little bit she gets bigger makes me miss her babyhood as i know i cant do it again.
I think a little part of me overcompensates too for the fact that C is 1st grandchild on my mum and my dads side and Neils first daughter (and neils a big mommas boy) so sometimes i feel like C is a bit favoured on the grandparents thing. Whether thats just cos shes older and can charm them (lil devil that she is) and interact with them more and that will change but sometimes i feel more protective about A for that too. |

| I wouldn't say protective but i haven't been as firm, like Joshua has got into really bad habits with sleeping that i sorted quickly with Immi. For me thats more because i've found it hard to get him on a proper routine whilst working around Imogen schedule. |

| We feel very protective of rich because of his issues, but having Lucas we've loosened the apron strings and he's blossomed, but I'm very protective of little man but also letting him be inquisitive, |

| Yep! I just want to hold on to her as much as I can. I was Deverstated when Hollie went into her room with Lillie. Lillie now I couldn't wait to get her out lol and I worry about her when out and about. I'm awful. Feel bit guilty i do it with her and not Lillie. Your not the only one. X |

| Aimee was in her own room sooner than I would have liked (about 8 weeks old) because she wouldnt sleep anymore in her moses basket.
I couldnt get rid of Lily quick enough - she was a nightmare sleeping for the first 8 weeks so by 10 weeks I was so happy she slept through in her cot that I was happy to leave her.
Holly..... I NEVER want Holly to go in her own room! She is so good and I love having her with us. But, I will do the same and put her in her own room somewhere between 10 and 12 weeks I think x |

| ahhh Laura I bet you don't I've got Tyler out of the cot now so have no excuses left for not moving Finlay... apart from that his room is cold (but there is heating lol and his room will be fine with the heating on) but it's too big for a little bubba |
