Hi, our son is around a year and eight months old. He’s been sleeping in his crib until now but lately he’s started wanting to sleep with us in the bed (we live in a 2dk apartment so we all sleep in the same room) He usually wakes up at around 12 or so crying, we pick him up, but him on the bed between us and sleep all together. Today he actually got out of the crib himself, which actually scared the living hell out of us. He really likes sleeping with us, but it’s not the best of setups for us (he moves around, kicks, etc. waking us up) We’re considering three options right now: getting him a child bed, allowing him to sleep with us every night (which is what has been going on for the last two weeks or so) or getting rid of the bed and using futons to cosleep on the floor, but each of us on independent futons. Those with experience in this situation, which option do you think would be the best

Co-sleep means dead bedroom.
If you need to co-sleep, get him a bed in a separate room you can move him to if you need to, ehem, do the deed. If a separate room is not an option then at least give him his own bed, for your own sake.
