No room to sleep!!

I'm looking for sleep solutions for my 2 and 4 year old. They both fall asleep in their own beds but come in to mine in the middle of the night. So husband is now in the spare room but I'm still so squashed! They sleep at strange angles and I'm getting more and more tired. Has anyone done a single next to a king size or do I need it bigger? My bed has a really thick mattress and is high so I'd want to find a single the same height. Anyone any cool Mum suggestions or ideas? X

Thanks everyone for your ideas. I don't want to out them back in their own beds. I think I'll try a single next to the king that I already have 😊 x

A single next to yours sounds like a good plan if you have the money and room space. I think just making sure they’re secure, so no gaps etc., will be the important part!

I used to get the ‘put him back or he’ll be in your bed forever’. I didn’t as he did not want to be on his own and was seeking some comfort (just like we do when older and sleeping with spouses). He’s 5 now and sleeps 11-13 hours in his own bed and I am so glad I didn’t listen and let him do it in his own time. My marriage is also absolutely fine and my husband encourages co-sleeping so we’re not trudging the hallways at all hours.

Once they're both asleep, I'd jump ship and go sleep in the spare room next to your DH.

Dd used to sneak into our bed when she was younger so we got a single for our room and she slept in there instead of climbing into our bed.
