Seasoned co-sleepers - what did you do with your little crawler?

[ChunkyMonkeyTwo]

Can only find stuff about very little ones in bed or toddlers. Is putting the mattress on the floor the only option (we already have a bed rail)? After an hour of excited squealing and wriggling from our 6 month old last night at 2 am had visions of being woken at all hours by her crawling round the bed and plopping off the edge! Is it really like that, how have you found it?

i asked this exact same question a few weeks ago - i'll try and find you the link, hang on...

here you go

i've just started reading "No Cry Sleep Solution" by Elizabeth Pantley, which is good as well. HTH.

We used a sleeping bag thingy from about 4 months, which seems to help with the wriggling!

Thanks UB, looks like that's how it is then! Strange how the books don't mention this bit...
