    Leash is she crawling? When you have the cot sidecar to the bed, is there a height difference? Can you lower the base of the cot, so its lower than your bed mattress, therefore stopping her from rolling out of the cot?
    (did that make sense?)

    PMSL I feel like an absolute idiot now, Shel and I were just talking about that (the cot sits a tiny bit higher than our mattress on the top level, and about 8ish cm lower on the bottom level) and deciding that it would be better on the top so she doesn't roll into the mattress. LOL thanks Ambah.

    But what do I do once she starts crawling? I don't think that'll hold her for long. Is there anything I can do?

    Another thought... may be annoying, but could you move your bed so its against the wall? Will restrict you to being able to climb in on only the end though... (which will have guard rails I assume?)

    She might not crawl for a while yet, giving you a couple of months that way anyway?
    Another thought... could you put a guard rail on that side of the cot, as opposed to putting the side back on? (I'm thinking of doing this for eva...)

    Ahhh thats a really good idea.

    Next question... good quality guardrails? Should I check our Babies Galore?
