I like the idea of a cute little secluded canopy area for her, but I love the chair and being able to rock her in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361805 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 15:32:50 +0000 winniebee 2361805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought another glider....I wish we hadn't. It's a great piece of furniture (looks like a normal chair) but by the time DS2 was born, DS1 preferred to read on our bed....and when DS2 was 3 months old DS1 moved to a big bed and we just read there. Oh well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361799 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 15:27:15 +0000 MamaCate 2361799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just read bedtime stories sitting on her bed. She has a twin bed now so there is room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361790 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 15:23:03 +0000 erinbaderin 2361790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're debating between a second non-glider chair (a cozy Ikea armchair or something) or a little tent on the floor with a beanbag or pillows in it, and then using the toddler bed for bedtime stories. I'm pushing for option 1 because I love cuddling up in the chair and reading together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361745 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:56:43 +0000 regberadaisy 2361745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just sat on the floor or laid in bed together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361741 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:54:55 +0000 Dagny 2361741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a big bean bag chair for LO1's room. It's worked out fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361670 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:14:07 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2361670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We read in her bed. She moved to a twin at 19 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361669 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:12:55 +0000 autumnlove 2361669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought an IKEA Poang chair to replace the glider. We still use it every night before bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361667 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:12:37 +0000 avivoca 2361667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't move our glider, we threw it away, but I'm planning to create a reading nook for her where the glider was. She is getting a Nod chair for Christmas and I'm planning on putting some pillows and a basket of books over there for story time. Right now, we lay on the floor and she snuggles right up to us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361663 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 14:11:01 +0000 Madison43 2361663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are in the exact same position. LO1 was 24 months when LO2 arrived. I caved and bought a second chair. I don't regret it at all...for now anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buy-second-glider#post-2361625 Wed, 18 Nov 2015 13:46:20 +0000 fussygal 2361625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To avoid buying a second chair we'd like to move DD's glider into the new baby's room this spring, but we still want a place to read to her at night and before naps (she'll be 23 months when he's born). Can anyone share what they did in a similar situation? I really don't want to buy a second chair!</p> <p>I was thinking we could make a little reading nook on the floor with pillows and maybe a cute canopy, but I'm open to other ideas! </p>
