Hello mums and bubs, just wanting some advice on transferring from the bassinet to the cot? Bub has just turned 5 months and it's almost too long for the bassinet now and keeps trying to roll over, just don't know where to start. I hate the idea of her not being in our bedroom but I think it's time

I found that it's a pretty easy transition from bassinet to cot and baby generally doesn't even notice. If your really nervous you can put the bassinet basket inside the cot for the first night.
If your nervous about the change of rooms get yourself a good baby monitor and sleep on the floor in the babies room for the first night. I was nervous the first night and then quickly got over myself lol.
I felt the same, I was very nervous about moving my little man into his own room, but he was fine, I don't think he even noticed the change. He was 3 months when we moved him into hi cot.
I put bubs in her cot for day sleeps to begin with, with the baby monitor on and allowed her to self settle. (But whatever your approach is).
Maybe you could do this for a week then try a night?
