Set up and type of bed help
Hi all! I am looking to buy my first floorbed for my nearly 1 year old to enable co sleeping and hopefully to save our sleep. He hasn’t ever slept through the night and is a little boob barnacle waking every hour.
In terms of floorbed, I have some questions i’d love some advice on…
Should I avoid beds with rails? I’d like the option of him napping independently and don’t want him to fall off, but also worried about him hitting his head on them
If I go for one with rails, do I still need to position it in the centre of the room away from all walls?
Does it make a difference where the opening is on a bed with rails? What’s safest, and is it a pain to get out of as a co sleeping mum.
Should I opt for a UK double size bed, or would a single or small double be enough room for feeding to sleep/cosleeping/ eventually sneaking out (fingers crossed!!)
Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been asked before, feel free to point me in the right direction. There is just so much to consider and the cost is a lot.
Cheers!
