The girls have always had trouble sleeping by themselves. One night we stuck Jillian in the crib with Olivia and they slept through the night. We then progressed to putting their mattresses on the floor. This was great, until Jillian rolled off of the mattress and right under the nearby crib. We decided to remove Olivia’s crib and turn Jillian’s toddler bed into the full size bed (we bought a convertible crib). After doing some research looking for the parts to change it into a bed, I found that the company had gone out of business. Only one website was selling the side railings for about $150, which was more than we wanted to spend on two pieces of wood. We found some side rails for $50 and all Adrian would have to do is drill some holes, yay saving money!
Anyways, The girls love their bed! They love sleeping next to each other, they both slept through the night from 8:30PM until 7:30AM. Unfortunately, for me I had a huge headache all night and had a hard time sleeping, so much for a restful night! Since we made it a big bed we’ve had many nights where they sleep all the way through! The few times they woke up were for teething or needing to use the restroom.
