How do you keep your baby from rolling off the bed?
I am going to go buy a guard rail today at lunch so LO can sleep next to me and not in the middle of the bed.

Bed on floor, and we put his crib mattress on the floor next to the bed. You could also teach them to go butt first once they start crawlig, but I haven't tried (yet).

We have an arms reach co-sleeper next to the bed. If she were to roll off our bed she'd roll into the co-sleeper.

My baby hasn't started rolling yet. I should go buy a guard rail too since I'm sure she'll be rolling soon.

@oliviaoblivia: how old is your LO? We have an 8mo old so I am afraid if he rolls into the co sleeper he'll try to climb out!

@littlebittyhouse: two months. If she were capable of climbing shed be out do of the co-sleeper in a second! I've seen people side-car a crib next to the bed. That might work better than a guard rail, which won't be much higher than the rail on a cosleeper.

@oliviaoblivia: we considered the side car but we would need a second crib. i am a WOHM and i need 7-9pm to prep for the next day so he needs to be in his own safe space for those few hours. after that i am comfortable bringing him to bed. he usually just snuggles into me but i am always worried that he'll roll off the bed if he's on the outside. i considered bed up against the wall too which is not out of the question yet either.
we didn't plan on co sleeping so this is all new!

sometimes LO sleeps with me when she is really fussy. We have her crib pushed against our bed and I put her close to the top of the bed and near the crib with a pillow shoved where there is a little bit of space. She's pretty good when she sleeps with me. I cannot put her in the middle because DH is a crazy sleeper.
