My LO will be 3 in May, her little sister arrives in August. She's still sleeping in a crib and is perfectly happy there, but we're starting to think about transitioning her. I'm in no rush; LO2 will be in our room in some capacity for the first few months, then can always sleep in a PnP if necessary.

However, LO does need some new furniture so her sister can take her baby stuff. Her crib is convertible (crib/toddler bed/full-size bed) so we'd originally planned to use it til she went to college, but didn't strategize about what we'd do in case of a second kid.

Anywho - we're shopping for "big girl furniture" for her so we can give the baby her stuff. We love this set, but I'm not sure a 3 year old will manage in this bed? We'd buy a separate toddler rail for her, and probably some kind of step so she can get in and out, but ideally this would be her bed from age 3-17. What do you think?
