rolly changed lilys cotbed into a bed today
she was thrilled when she saw it
she had a shower went into her room and said 'no big girl bed'
i read her a story, she had her milk and cried for 20 mins
ive moved her twice already as she was close to the edge!
just hope she gets thru the night as we are selling at a carboot tomorrow!
shes 2 in a few weeks time, i cant believe it, it seems like last week when we bought the cotbed waiting for her to arrive!

Dear Jopsy, i can remember my two boys first nights in there new beds, they looked so small.
We put a pillow down the side of the bed to stop them rolling out, and one on the floor just incase. :)

Hope your desinger clothes sell well tomorrow. :twisted: :D :wink:
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Dear Jopsy, now you just have to wait for that big bump in the night, it's amazing how quick you can go from being in a deep sleep, to waking, running into the next room, and picking them up off the floor in less than two seconds. :shock: :)
It's not that good for your heart though. :)

Sounds as if you might be buying some desinger clothes tomorrow then. :twisted:
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Conrad's been in a bed for about a year and still regularly falls out. Sometimes he hardly wakes and I find him asleep on the floor when I go to check on him! I wonder when they learn not to fall out of bed? :?
Actually, he still gets in our bed about 50% of the time. A habit I don't want to break as he's very cuddly. Like your own live, warm teddy bear who hugs you back. :) :oops:

Just as a moment of reassurance - at all of 31 years of age I moved (mid air) from one bunk to another in a relatively small sailing ship across a significant gap, in a violent storm, mid sail, without waking. Aagh - Wales!

Now, some nearly 20 years later, I sleep through any disturbance, on land, sea or air. Regularly land on the floor next to my bed. Seems like I've never really learnt how to fall out of bed.

On the contrary, Tigger. It sounds to me as though you've learned how to fall out of bed exceedingly well!
A schoolfriend of mine once woke up next to her brother who slept in the bunk below her. She'd fallen from the top bunk onto the floor and climbed into the bottom bunk in her sleep. She was covered in bruises. :shock:

It always seems worse if you fall out of a strange bed don't you think Tigger. :twisted:

I fall out of bed so often, I don't even notice - just sleep straight through. When I fell down the stairs and broke my arm, I went back to sleep!
