My son refused to use the crib at around 18 months and we had no choice but to transition him to a low futon that was in his room. One night, he literally brought me his sleepsack and after books, he walked over to the futon and laid down on it. That was that and he was out of the crib...he also refused the conversion of the crib to the toddler bed, so I am glad we didn't invest a ton in our crib. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/floor-bed-resources#post-1255426 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 08:19:04 +0000 MamaCate 1255426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am on my phone so it is a pain to link but I was inspired to try it by the blogs feedingthesoil and howwemontessori. We have had LO on a floor bed for 2 years now, so I am also happy to answer questions ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/floor-bed-resources#post-1255411 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 08:13:38 +0000 Cole 1255411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have time right now to dig up some options but try searching Pinterest, I know there are some boards on there dedicated to floor beds or Montessori bedrooms and you might find some good links to logic behind it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/floor-bed-resources#post-1255397 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 08:07:08 +0000 autumnlove 1255397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: Ha, my DH feels the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/floor-bed-resources#post-1255372 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 07:48:58 +0000 regberadaisy 1255372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can anyone direct me to some online resources that talk about floor bed?<br /> My toddler doesn't want to be put into her crib and I'm thinking a floor bed might be a good solution. But DH isn't convinced that sleeping on a floor mattress isn't just for broke college students.. ;) </p>
