Bella is still sleeping in her crib these days. We were going t convert it into a toddler bed before we moved but we thought it would be best to keep things as familiar as possible until we settled into a place of our own. The last few weeks she has been tossing and turning all night long. Most nights she wakes at about 2-3am and asks to sleep on the couch. I don't know what the problem is. She still isn't talking enough to be able to communicate the problem. I feel horrible. Sometimes I hear her legs hitting the rails. The thing is, the next step in converting it would be to just remove the front part of the crib so that the two sides would act as the head board and foot board. This really doesn't solve my issue if she is too long for the bed. It will look something like this.
Maybe we will try this out for awhile before attempting the full size bed. Have any of your kids had issues with the toddler size?

Both my girls fall into the 95% percentile for height, so I feel your pain. My youngest would constantly bang her feet against the rails, trying to find a comfortable position-she likes to spread out to sleep. Anyway, we ended up (with both kids), skipping the toddler bed. I wedged the "big girl bed" into a corner and just made sure I put plenty of pillows around. However, I don't remember either of them every falling out, thank goodness! Hope you figure out something so you all get a full night's sleep. :-)
