Success in toddler moving into new bed!

Hi IM mums!
So my husband and I decided we would move our little girl into a new room with the new furniture so we can keep the same furniture in her original room and keep that as a nursery. We moved her new room yesterday. We have been playing in there etc and she loves it. (She's just turned 2 and I'm 30weeks preg)
So she had her first two sleeps in there. She seemed scared and i laid on her bed until she fell asleep for the first time as she didn't want to stay in there when I left the room. And she was asleep within 5mins.
And for her night slept we tried the putting her back in but she was too scared and became upset so I sat on the floor this time until she fell asleep which was about an 1 1/2 and slept all night and got up her normal time and came into us.
For today's sleep it only took her 5mins with me on the floor.
I just wondering how other people went with this transition.
And any tips you may have on helping her become more settled. I think Ill keep trying the leaving the room and then sitting in there but just further away each time. But would love to hear what you did and your success'!
Thanks in advance!

I think your doing an awesome job :-) Big changes.
I was lucky my daughter was sharing her room with her sister. So when we moved house 6 months ago we just didnt assemble her cot.. slept I her bed ever since :-)
