Im convinced one night shes going to push so hard against it shes going to squeeze into the space or unhinge it. I know neither of those scenarios is likely because of how secure they are, but thats just my paranoia lol. We currently just use pillows around the perimeter of the bed, but if she falls its only like 10 inches or however thick the mattress is, so I dont worry </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/guard-rails-for-a-big-girl-bed#post-839109 Fri, 07 Jun 2013 09:16:24 +0000 Maysprout 839109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any experience with that or pool noodles. We just picked up a pair of guard rails from target, or someplace like that. The middle is mesh and they've worked well for us the past year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/guard-rails-for-a-big-girl-bed#post-839069 Fri, 07 Jun 2013 09:04:36 +0000 LivsMama 839069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Liv has been on a queen mattress on the floor since she was about 16 months old. She started climbing out of the crib effortlessly then, even with the mattress all the way down on the floor, so we had to remove it. We just bought her big girl bed frame, and although the height is pretty low, I still want rails for security. I like the idea of the ones that go under the sheets like this one</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Bumpers-Portable-Child-Safety/dp/B003KFCV6S/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1370613829&#038;sr=1-1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Bumpers-Portable-Child-Safety/dp/B003KFCV6S/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1370613829&#038;sr=1-1</a></p> <p>But my question is, does anyone have experience with either those, or using pool noodles the same way? What do you all use?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
