It maybe time to start weening her. Nursing is great but at that age she is capable of sleeping on her on and without being nursed to sleep. All parents have different suggestions so it is completly up to you as to what to do. I would probably not move her from your bed and ween at the same time but make small steps towrd doing both.
Does she have her own bed/ room? Maybe continue nursing and move to the new room first if you would rather nurse until she is older. In doing this work on the letting her sleep through the night in her own room first. That way if she isn't in the room with you it is not as conveiniant to nurse. Once she is accustom to sleeping on her own with out nursing to fall asleep then you can completely ween from nursing.
Like I said the decision is yours but remember once you start anything consistancy is key. Regardless of which you decide to do you can not give in if she cries or anything because once you break the consistancy it just makes it harder on the both of you.
I wish you all the best. I know it is hard to hear our childen be upset but they can work through most things on their own and alot of times it is harder on us then it is on them.
Best wishes
