It is so hard to know what to do isn't it hun. Izzy will be 16 1/2 mths when our little man arrives, but he will be in a cradle for around 3 mths. So when Izzy is around 20 mths we are going to move her to a single bed. I looked at toddler beds but it just seemed a waste really so we will use a normal single bed and put a rail up on it. figure that once they are in a "bed" it doesn't really matter how long it is IYKWIM? I am going to get DH to cut the legs on the single bed that we have and make it a bit lower to the ground and she can use it for years to come! HtH! Ikea also have beds that can adjust from toddler length to single bed length - I think they are worth looking at too if you don't want to go right to a single bed.
My DD swapped to a bed at about 2 yrs old. I put her bed up and left the cot in her room as well incase she wanted to get back in it. But she never did, loves her big bed
If your going to use the cot or the baby (if u can) i would move to a big bed atleast a lil while before baby is due to comvert from bassinette to cot otherwise your DD might feel your taking it from her and giving to the baby.
Just a thought, not neccessarily what will happen.
Still not sure what we'll do..but you've given me a few ideas.
One thing that I did find the other day, was a BIG cot bed (well bigger dimensions then most of the cot beds)..so that will be definitely worth looking at I think.
