When did you put your LO in a toddler bed? Out of curiosity?

DS was in a toddler bed from 16 months and DD has been in one for just over a month now.

DS is just in a toddler bed and DD has a 'bar' to stop her from falling out.

We had to take them out of the cots and put them into beds as they had mastered climbing out themselves so it wasn't safe for them to stay in cots.

DD was 18 months. DS is 17 months, unsure when we will put him in one as he sleeps so well in his cot I don't want to ruin a good thing, lol.

My lo is still in his cotbed with the sides on and he's just turned 2. We took the sides off a month ago and it was a complete disaster! He didn't go to sleep for nearly 2 hours just stood at his door screaming. Once he did settle he got out of bed twice in the night and it just completely freaked me out. The sides went firmly back on the next day and he's back to being asleep within 10 minutes of being put to bed.

We are skipping a toddler bed and going straight in for a single. We have taken the side off her cot.

21 months. I moved him when he could climb out of his cot. It has gone well, he doesn't get out of bed in the night and settles fine, only thing is now he can get out himself up he gets up at 6ish every day, whereas in his cot he wouldn't cry for me to get him up until 8ish X

Thanks Ladies! I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong because my DS still sleeps in his crib. The sides are high enough and the mattress low enough that I don't ever worry about him crawling out. He is 17 months old, but a whole bunch of other girls I know already have their kids in a toddler bed and thought maybe this was something I should be doing too?
