I just won a toddler bed off ebay, we need to get a toddler one rather than a standard single due to teensyness of DS's room. So we need to get a new duvet and bedlinen (although not sure if I should just keep him in sleeping bags still), so wondering if it's fine to just use standard duvets or can you get special toddler bed size ones?
Also the mattress comes with the ebay deal, I'm not sure whether to use it or not though. It's been used by only one child and aparrantly always had a mattress protector on it. I think I'd rather get a new one but then again it would be £££ plus a PITA to find one the exact size! Would it be OK safety wise to use an old mattress? I know you are meant to get new ones for newborns but DS is 21 months old so does the same advice apply?

Do I need to get a special size duvet etc for a toddler bed? And would you use a 2nd hand mattress?
