The room really isn’t that big, a changing table can fit but it will be kind of packed with the glider, crib, daybed, dresser etc. If I dont get one is it practical to have to change the baby on the daybed? Is there some kind of waterproof padding for this? (and not the small one that comes in a diaper bag)

My 2 year old son sleeps in his crib, which has the front removed and converted into a daybed. Anyone know where to find a sheet that is the same size as a standard crib mattress, but that’s not fitted? Everywhere I look I can only find fitted crib sheets. The only regular sheet sets I can find for kids beds are for twin or full size beds.

For my first child, I bought a "Million Dollar Baby" crib (the Emily model), and this is the description:

"Stylish solid pine crib accommodates child from infancy through teen years. Static side, with no moving parts, allows mom to take baby out of crib with little effort. Adjustable 4-level mattress spring system. Includes daybed conversion guard rail, plus full-size headboard and footboard."

Should I go ahead and buy another one like this for my second baby, and just convert the Emily crib I have now into a toddler bed? And when exactly can a baby start sleeping in a toddler bed? I am hoping that as my baby gets older, she might want to snuggle with us in bed and sleep with us. She has definitely not been a cuddly type at all, she hates being hold in bed, it seems as if she thinks she’s being held within her will and constrained!

Well, anyway, should I just buy a regular toddler bed for the older baby, or should I just get another crib that converts? What did you do?

Thanks for any and all advice.
