We have a PnP with a removable bassinet. But we leave it in there, and thats where DD sleeps. We put her in there only at night, to keep her on a routine so she knows that it's bed time. And we put her down the same time we go to bed, we all head upstairs around 10pm (930 if it's a bath night).
We have a bassinet in our room that he starts sleeping in and that I try to get him to sleep in most of the night but he prefers to sleep in bed next to me. I make sure there are no covers or pillows near him and I keep him on my side away from MH.
In my king bed with me, DH is in the guest room right now. Not because of DD2, but because his snoring pisses me off in the middle of the night when I am awake and he is sleeping.
We go back and forth between the R-N-S in our room and her crib. I am still not ready for her to be in her crib full time,but she does seem to sleep better there.

Caitlin is going thru a growth spurt so right now she is crib and with me. I try to put her down before we go to bed but that is not working right now as to this growth spurt is either breastfeeding or she wants to be held and soothed alot. I hope this stage is over soon!
He gets put down to sleep around 10-11 in the Arm's reach co-sleeper on my side of the bed. He ends up spending some time in the bed with us though throughout the night.
norah is sleeping in the carseat attached to the jogging stroller next to our bed. it's the only thing that's inclined enough for her to not have reflux too bad. in a few more weeks, she will go to her crib.
He sleeps in the co-sleeper in our room, we are using it as a bassinet, its not attached to the bed. His room is upstairs, and he is only 10 days old, as soon as he gets into a more reliable sleep pattern I will move hime to his crib. Right now he is up so much and for so long it is just easier to do it all in our room.
I have just started getting him to nap in his crib, he is not a big fan, but we are working on it.
ETA: I put him down after the 8 or 9 pm feeding. Sometimes I got to bed then, too, sometimes, not.
His three plus my one; we are all excited to welcome a little one!
Eliza starts out in her swing in our room because of her reflux from anywhere between 8-10. By about 3 or 4 she in our bed with me until about 7:30. That's what time she typically wakes up for the day.
She sleeps in her bassinet by my bed. I normally lay her down after her 9pm feeding. DH and I will normally lay down in bed and watch TV/sleep until her midnight feeding, and we are up for the day by 7 thanks to her big brother.

He's been sleeping in his crib all along. We held off on buying any of the other stuff listed until we saw how the crib went, so we still don't own any of it.
We don't really go to bed. He wakes up too frequently to eat for that. Still trying to put on weight. There's a twin bed in the nursery and one of us naps there between feedings for a four hour shift while the other gets uninterrupted sleep in our bed. Then trade.
he is supposed to sleep in his bassinet in our room, but he spends half of the night in our bed because i'm too exhausted to get him back into the bassinet since he'll scream like crazy.

This is so us!!! That is so funny and makes me feel less bitchy for doing it! All that I ask is that he doesn't snore while I have to be awake, think he could manage that? NO!
That and I usually have DD sleep in bed with me, and it's just not comfortable trying to make room between two adults in a smaller bed for a baby to be safe in the middle of us.
We are between his cradle and the Soothe and Swaddle bouncer.. he will only go in the cradle if he's passed out already. If not, he has to go in the bouncer to fall asleep.
He usually starts off in his crib in his room, spends some time sleeping on my chest on the couch after a feeding, and then ends up in the rocker in our room. As long as he is sleeping, I'm happy wherever he sleeps.
Violet and I sleep in the living room, with me on the couch and her next to me (either on the couch as well or in the floor on her crib mattress). It's hard enough to get her to sleep without trying to move her to the bassinet in our room. I'll try it eventually...

We put her in the co-sleeper in our room after her 9 or 10pm feeding and try to go to bed with her. When she gets up 2-3 hours later, I go feed her in the glider in the living room and we usually spend the rest of the night together on the couch. She has to stay upright for a time after eating and I'm usually too sleepy to wait her out and put her back in the co-sleeper.

Re: Where does your baby sleep? (poll)
LO sleeps in her swing in her room. This is a new thing, she recently decided her crib is not good enough anymore.
ETA: She goes to bed before we do, unless I am exhausted, then I go to bed at the same time -- around 9pm.

You've given so few of the options out there.

He sleeps in his bassinet by our bed. He only goes in there at night.
I don't go to sleep until he is asleep for the night.

This. And we put her down when we go to bed- about 11 every night. I feed her, we change her into her pjs, then she goes to the crib.
