My baby is still sleeping in my room. I had started getting her use to hers when we ended up having a scorpion problem. But once I know that's dealt with I want to start getting her comfy in her own room. Both the of the kids rooms are upstairs and mine down stairs.
How old was your baby when you let them sleep the whole night in their room? I'm also super nervous about SIDS, the main reason (other than scorpions) that she sleeps in my room.
EDIT:
For those of you that wonder what I'm talking about as far as the scorpions: Heres one:


we have them in freakin NORTHERN GEORGIA!!! i was getting ready to go hunting and hubbs went into the closet to get my boots and he came out with a damn scorpion in a cup! he put the cup over it and then slid some thick paper under it and flipped it over (he went to Iraq so has tons of experience with these lil monsters) but NORTH GA!!! it snows there we have mountains it was the last place i would have thought a scorpion would be!

No, any neighborhood that was built here in Las Vegas from the 1980s-1990s has Bark Scorpions. They came in from Arizona. Any place that has Palm trees will almost always have them (from Arizona as a source). Their hitchhikers, and love to travel to new places!! There not native to Las Vegas. There everywhere, but not everyone sees them. I go out at night to see what kind of bugs I have in my yard... I'm not so against them being in the yard, it's in my house that I can't cope with!!!

That's so crazy! I had no idea people live in area's with scorpions in and around their house. LOL! I thought they lived in hot desert area's in the sand!

LOL, I know, I think that's funny!!! I want so bad to move her to her room, just, that's my HUGE issue right now. The one I posted I caught the other night. I caught a baby scorpion on the wall upstairs. They are the most venomous scorpions in the country. Their Bark Scorpions, and can kill a child!! No deaths recently from then here that I know of, but people die in Mexico all the time from them, I've heard up to 200 people a year die from a sting there!!
Edit: I live in Las Vegas NV
Quoting Proudmommy312:
Doesn't it freak anyone out that she has scorpions in her house!!! No one has even responded to that!!! That would really creep me out, where do you live?
Our daughter slept in the same room as us till she was 9 months old. Our son went into his own room the night he came home from the hospital.
