Lo was sick and threw up all over it.. We didn't have a waterproof cover on it so all the vomit juice seeped into the mattress. :T we're moving on Monday so decided to toss it and get a new bed for her </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-twin-or-toddler-bed#post-321461 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 20:21:57 +0000 mamimami 321461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't you already have a floor bed? Or am I making things up? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-twin-or-toddler-bed#post-321458 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 20:18:57 +0000 AprilK 321458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going straight to twin once my LO needs to be moved out of the crib. I think I might put the mattress straight on the floor though for awhile, until he learns not to fall out. I read this somewhere, can't remember where?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-twin-or-toddler-bed#post-321456 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 20:16:27 +0000 chopsuey 321456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going shopping for LO's new bed tomorrow.. </p> <p>Not sure if I should get a toddler bed or a twin sized bed..<br /> Thoughts?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
