Helpful advice about potential roommate?

My husbands cousin, and my best friend since Jr. High, just left her abusive boyfriend. She is moving into a three bedroom house and has asked us to move in with her. She has a 5 year old daughter who I love to death. But we are expecting our first child very very soon (Jan. 20th) and my husband and I would have to share a bedroom with our newborn. I really am not sure about moving in with her because I would like to be able to have my own space. But, at the same time I want her to know that I support her and her decision to leave the crappy man she was with. Also I feel like I kind of owe it to her to at least give it a try because she has helped me out so much throughout my life. She is actually the one who introduced me to my husband (her cousin) and it would save us quit a bit of money. I'm just not sure what to do. Any helpful advice?

Update:

Well, thank you Carl! That is exactly what we had planned. Gosh.........

    Just try she sounds like a nice person that will actualy be able to help you guys out with the kid to. She can also watch the kid so you guys can get few minutes of sleep during the first weeks. I think it would be nice for all of you.

    My advice is not to move in with her. As much as you care for her and support her, moving in with her will ultimately cause problems with your friendship. Plus you need your own space and privacy. You will not have it there and it will be a very stressful situation. Good Luck!

    Bad idea. Your marriage and your newborn deserve to have their own nest. This could be a potentially difficult and awkward situation. Move closer to her, but not in with her. Your family needs privacy to grow together.

    You can be supportive and a loving friend without moving in with them. Gosh no, do what feels right for your family. But you know, let her know you care all that as you do.
