He was in a crib, then the crib converted with toddler rail til almost 4 (he's small!) And finally I gave in and gave him the guest bed. Now when guests come over, he sleeps on an arrived in our room and the guests stay in his room.</p> <p>He's fallen off a couple of times! But usually just climbs back on. If he falls and cries, we just tuck him back in and he goes right back to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416406 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 21:20:25 +0000 autumnlove 1416406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@prettylizy: nice!

Thanks for answering! I am sure a mattress on the floor is fine considering your gal is just fine.</p> <p>@prettylizy: Thank you! That is a cute headboard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416297 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 20:29:07 +0000 mrskc 1416297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. We started with one at 8 months. He now has a twin mattress on the floor in his room. </p> <p>@prettylizy: the headboard is a cute idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416261 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 20:16:15 +0000 T-Mom 1416261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a floor bed for my DS. But it's been very hard to keep him from coming out and standing by our bed. One of usually goes to lie down with him around 1 am.. It sucks. We put him back in the crib for a few nights and now he just cried for us. Not sure what to do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416202 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:48:03 +0000 prettylizy 1416202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheesetomywhine: just a mattress on the floor. It's our old queen mat that was recently replaced by a king in our room. It is in fine shape and super comfy so I couldn't bear to throw it out. Dd loves her big bed </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416199 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:47:13 +0000 chopsuey 1416199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheesetomywhine: just a mattress on the floor.<br /> did they say why oxygen had to flow? haha. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416195 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:45:25 +0000 cheesetomywhine 1416195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: @prettylizy: @Mrs. Twine: Are your floor beds on something? Or just a mattress directly on the floor? I've read some stuff saying it should have something under it for oxygen to flow but cannot figure out what that something would be. Thanks!</p> <p>OP- sorry to threadjack </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416192 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:44:54 +0000 prettylizy 1416192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: </p> [attach=1542/14/n0uy2x.450x600.20140211_193620-0-.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416129 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:18:49 +0000 autumnlove 1416129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@prettylizy: pic?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416113 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:11:56 +0000 chopsuey 1416113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD has always slept on a floor bed! We plan on getting her a bed frame when we move though. </p> <p>DS is in a pnp and.. not sure when we'll transition him out! Probably not for a long while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416111 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 19:10:38 +0000 prettylizy 1416111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I felt the same way about the 'look' of the floor bed so we made a padded headboard on the super cheap to make it look like a real bed. We do have plans to put her in a twin bed eventually but not yet </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416085 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 18:55:40 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1416085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sigh...I have shared my experience at length.... Holding out hope that we can try again soon :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416069 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 18:45:45 +0000 Arden 1416069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a family floor bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1416063 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 18:41:53 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 1416063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, we transitioned at 15 months. When he wakes up he just sits there and cries for us, so it's working for the time being. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1415843 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 17:13:14 +0000 yerpie110 1415843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been thinking of transitioning her to one!

I know it has benefits but I don't like the look of a mattress on the floor...reminds me of my slummy college days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1415685 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 16:39:38 +0000 littleveesmommy 1415685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are planning to transition DD out of her crib and I was half wanting to do a floor bed. Whether floor bed or toddler bed, I am just afraid she will get up in the middle of the night and wander! Did you have problems with Olive getting up and roaming around her room in the middle of the night? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1414935 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 14:34:21 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1414935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did a floor bed for Ellie starting at 7 months, and for Lorelei about the same (though she really didn't use it much until she was around a year because I was still wearing her for naps and she was still in bed with me and Mr. T). Now I share the floor bed with Lorelei for most of the night and Ellie has her own regular twin bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1414904 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 14:30:46 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1414904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm considering it! LO is only 5 months so it will be awhile but I actually really have my heart set on her having a floor bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-have-a-floor-bed#post-1414805 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 14:12:28 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1414805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Olive has both a floor bed (twin mattress) and a crib in her room. The past couple of weeks she has fallen asleep on the floor bed, and then we move her into her crib because she tends to sleep better in there.</p> <p>Last night for the first time we left her on her floor bed, and she slept 12 hours! I think we are ready to make the transition (she's 27 months). Her crib converts to a toddler bed, but she loves her floor bed. Charlie has a floor bed too!</p> <p>Does your LO have a floor bed? Would you consider one for your LO? </p>
