My 3 sons share a large room ( Only two beds because they sleep together and the baby (19m) has the top bunk of a bunk it is all "caged in" thats on the floor The older ones no matter if they are in their own bed at first always end up together?) So I have delayed getting the toddler a bed because another bed will take up space and it won't get used. I was even thinking of getting them all a queen lol. My oldest is 9 so he will want his own space soon! Honestly while they are little I think it is better they share for comfort reasons, they feel safer together now my son is 9 there are getting a bit to many fights!

We have a 4 bedder. Two boys sleep in one room together. Getting bunk beds but can be used as two separate beds until my eldest is old enough to be in a bunk bed.
Our other room, one is a spare room used for dps Reno gear that will be turned into a study/guest/toy room.
The other room is currently toy room/baby gear storage room. We call it the nursery, babies room or toy room. Even though we haven't even started ttc lol.
If we have a boy no doubt he will go in with my youngest and my eldest will get his own room once the baby is old enough UNLES we decide to try for a fourth which I hope doesn't happen!!!
If we have a girl *prays* she will have her nursery which will become her bedroom unless we decide to move prior2008

We have a four bedroom house. My older two boys are only two years apart and have always shared a room and love it. Currently DS3 has a room on his own (15 months old), DH and I have a room and we have a spare room. But when DD comes along we will have to re-think things. She will go in with us while she is very small, but when she is about 5 months or so I am thinking of giving my DS1 a room on his own, having DS2 and DS3 share and having DD with a room of her own. Or I could have DS1 and DS2 continue to share, DS3 keeps his room and DD goes into the spare room. Either way I have a lot of junk to get rid of in that spare room in the next eight months.....

We have two bedrooms and atm we all share as we are renovating the smaller bedroom.
We have no problem with them sharing whatsoever, it's a big bedroom. Sometimes they are a right nightmare to get to sleep, but usually they are so worn out they just collapse and fall asleep right a way.
The plan is that, if we haven't been able to move, the next one will stay in our (smaller) bedroom until s/he sleeps through the night and then be moved into the bigger bedroom with the boys.2005

We live in a three bedroom apt so each kid has their own room. However, when ds2 was born we only had a 2 bedroom so the baby stayed in our room. We almost got a 4 br house and I was so excited but it fell through so now we are gonna be stuck with three kids and 3 bedrooms. I think the baby will stay in our room for awhile and eventually I will double up my boys.

We have 4 bedrooms but my dh uses 1 for his computers (yes more than one), guitar and amp and other "toys". We have been wanting to move for awhile for many reasons with 1 reason being so the kids can have their own rooms. Well now that we will have 4 kids we will have 2 in each room. My two older boys share a room and my youngest will be sharing his room with his baby sister. He is only 5 so he is fine with it. We are redecorating the room so it's gender neutral colors and they will each have an area just for them. It's not ideal but the best we can do until we fix up the house enough to get it on the market. My brother and I shared a room until I was in 4th grade or so and it didn't kill me so I think they will be okay, its the cluttered look (too much stuff & not enough room) that drives me crazy!

We have 6 girls and a three bedroom house. My oldest is 12 and currently in her own room. The other bedroom has my 9 year old twins and our 6 year old. Then the 21 month old is in her crib in our room and our three year old is in our bed. Once the two younger ones who are in our room are ready to move out of there we will probably put two girls in with my oldest and then have three in each room. It is funny though because on weekends and all summer they ALL camp out in our room. Not sure why but I actually like having them all in there with us. Mama bird thing i guess, LOL!

We currently have 3 bedrooms and 2 kids. The boys share a bedroom and then the 3rd room is used as a second living space/playroom so they don't have any toys in their bedroom. By the time we have number 3 we'll be our new house which will be 4 bedrooms so each kid will get their own room.
