Big bed - what age?

singles here... and gabriel was in his for day sleeps first then nights as well by the time he was 18 mths old. but that was because toby was on his way. Toby was in his much later than that.

We started transitioning Erin at 18mo as she was showing signs of being more than ready (read: climbing!), so we went nearly two weeks with the side off her cot and a 'crash pad' on the floor, then switched to a single bed, which she has had no problems adjusting to.

King Single here. Andrew went into it at 18 odd months. We stared by taking the side of the bars off the cot first and then day sleeps. Josh is nowhere near moving to the big bed yet.

We moving Andrew to his top bunk about 3 months ago.

Never! The gremlins will be in cots forever!

Maya was about 20 months. She's in a single, I'll move her into a king single when the gremlins go into beds coz one of them can have her single bed and the other can have the spare single we have lying around. But their cots turn into toddler beds so they'll be in those for at least another 2 years.

Ollie was a couple of days shy of 2yrs. We moved a single bed into his room a month or so earlier and he asked to sleep in it and other than rolling out the first night, he's been fine.

Still no where near wanting to move Rhylz... hes quite happy where he is and so am I. His cot goes in to a bed so the trasition shouldn't be too bad, its the same cot I have used for all the kids and worked a treat for the other 2.. Josh was around 18months in it and Brooke around 20months

Awwwww! Elle has never slept in our bed (she likes her space) but she just jumped up there, asked for a blanket and her music and then blew me a kiss goodbye. She is now napping in our huge kind size bed!

This is really huge for her as she usually needs to be in her cot. YAY! Looks like it's a good time to get a big bed :)

Blake was moved into his Single bed about a month ago...made a big deal out of it and bought a special Thomas Duvet and he loves it..has never tried to get out....hes not a climber but think it was just the right time for him

Olivia was about 19-20 months old when I started the transition from cot to bed. We just started with day time naps at first, she had 4 days of some pretty terribly day time sleeps before she calmed down then about 2 weeks later we started the night sleeps (although she wanted to try before then, I left it till I was sure she would be ok), she slept 10hrs that night and 12 basically every night after. I moved her over because even though there was plenty of room in her cot she was hurting herself on the bars moving around at night at least once a week. She sleeps much better in her big bed than she ever did in the cot.
I never took her cot down till she was sleeping in her big bed for a couple of nights really well.
She is not a kid that handles huge changes very well so I am really glad we did a transition.
