I'm starting my second trimester and starting to look more into things to begin prepping and my husband and I make plans for the baby. I keep getting concerned about SIDS, and the baby getting a flat head (there is a med term for that but I can't spell it, sorry), and all things included. My question is: did you have your babies crib or bassinet in the same room with you in the beginning? If so why? and If not, did they have there own room and you just had a baby monitor? We'd prefer the other room with the baby monitor but I want to do whats best for our baby of course. -- So I'm curious what other moms have done in the past or are doing now.
Re: Baby sleep in same room as you?
Thank you for replying. That makes me feel a lot better. I understand why hospitals recommend in the same room sleeping, I mean SIDS risk is serious, but I literally don't think I've ever seen it done unless it was necessary due to spacing. -- I know we have to do what we feel is best but it really helps to hear from others. Thank you.
Granted, this is our first baby, and we’ll be flexible if it turns out this doesn’t work for us.

Baby #1 due April 19, 2022
This method seems to be working, because she sleeps a minimum four hours, and up to seven hours straight at night already. Wayyyyy better than what I was expecting at 11 weeks. I honestly think she knows I am there when she really needs me, now after weeks of responding so quickly. So when she wakes up naturally she is now able to fall back asleep on her own without crying or fussing, obviously if she is wet or poopy it’s a different story and she lets me know! Haha
