Ah ok... our youngest has also co-slept with us in our very high queen bed from when he was a newborn so I guess he was used to the height from the start. These days he starts off in his bed at about 7pm and then walks down the hall into our bed at about 3 - 4am which is fine with us... although he doesn't do it every night.
just to clarify it is a King Single....so it's a big bed. We have one of those rails from Target, but he can still climb in & out. He hasn't gotten out once at night time yet or in the morn. But in the afternoon he slowly destroys the room LOL!! he was starting to take longer to sleep in the arvo when in his cot so perhaps he is ready to drop the nap.....with DH away for work ALL of the time I like an hour to myself in the arvo's.
I could lie with him easily, have done that at night to encourage him to lie down.....would prob end up asleep there myself!
It was never an issue for me, but have you thought that yo could put him in a portacot during the day?
THat way the space issue is resolved, and you can take it down when not in use.
Good luck
