Beside this, when should baby be moved to own room?

Some experts are saying to that in order for parents and babies to get their best sleep, infants should move to their own room between four and six months old. After four months of age, room sharing can actually have a detrimental effect on how long an infant sleeps during the night.

Similarly, when can you stop worrying about SIDS? It's important to take SIDS seriously throughout your baby's first year of life. That said, the older she gets, the more her risk will drop. Most SIDS cases occur before 4 months, and the vast majority happen before 6 months.

Considering this, when should I put my baby in his own room NHS?

Current NHS guidance recommends keeping your baby in the same room as you in a separate cot for the first six months. Placing your baby on their back to sleep from the very beginning, for both day and night sleeps, will reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
