Traveling/Bed Question

[liziz]

We still use our PNP, even though she can climb out, with no problem. The alternative might be to make a bed on the floor from pillows and blankets? That's what we always did as kids in a hotel.

We use the PNP even though he;s over the limit. He can also climb out. I sit with him or stand at the door and tell him to lay down until he falls asleep.

Back in January we used a PNP for both girls, they shared... never paid attention to the weight limit. It was a tight fit but we only brought one PNP and the hotel didn't have any cribs or PNPs for us to use. They were fine, and it was only a couple nights.

We've transitioned them from cribs since then due to a climbing problem... so last week we just had them in the double bed together, surrounded by a pillow nest, with DS at the foot of their bed. Bedtime was way later than usual and I may have played a movie and turned the lights off... it beat having them scream for an hour, considering we already had housekeeping come to us with noise complaints prior -_-

Still using the the pnp here, but we're not to 30lbs yet. I'd probably focus more on length than weight for using it, though.

We are traveling the next few weeks and at my ILs we, they are setting up their crib into a toddler bed. At my parents, they are setting up a twin air mattress, and when we go to a family reunion up north, we will use a regular bed for him. Keeping him in each of these options long enough to fall asleep will be our biggest issue, but that's our struggle at home too. If he would stay in a PnP I would continue to use that.

I have some friends who use one of those PeaPod things for their kids when they travel and It works well for them. No personal experience on those, though. I would still use the PNP if I were you.

We still use PnP but he's not 30 lbs yet. There's a small AeroBed with sides good for little kids and some people put pool noodles under sheets on the bed as a sort of toddler rail. I'm sure the PnP would be fine even if he's over 30.

Still in the PNP over here but we haven't hit 30 pounds yet. I'll probably still use it when she does. We actually got a second PNP for #2 since we travel so often.

We still use the PNP even though she's over the weight limit. We don't have to use it too often. My mom bought this air mattress for her house, so we will try it out when we go visit next month. www.walmart.com/ip/22899906?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222228017095685&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=41034814832&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=79055295872&veh=sem

I think we used the PNP past 30 lbs. with DS1. If it's just for a couple of nights, I don't see the big deal.

I realize I'm late here but let us know how this works! I'm intrigued!

So a family member got us a toddler cot for DS this past weekend. We will use it next weekend and see how it works. It's just a smaller version of a camping cot that is raised off the ground a little.

We are traveling for Thanksgiving and I'm nervous about her fitting into a pnp. She is currently under 30 lbs. She still sleeps in one right now at daycare so I really hope she will still fit in one then. Dh's high school friend runs a kids consignment store so we are going to be borrowing one from her. fx!
