The Edcawber Principle

A false dawn?

Thought DD had decided to use her own bed again, only to be met with the eerie figure of my tiny little redhead peering over the side of our bed at 1 in the morning! Back to the couch for me...

£0.66 paid off a CC and posted a book for an Am@azon sale. Expecting another £10 from a Zopa P2P referral shortly :coffee:

Is hers a small bed still? may be time to consider a 4ft bed in her room so you can go back to her bed with her and lay with her there. It's a way of reinforcing that that is where she sleeps. At the moment she sees you and Mummy together and thinks she should join you. At least you would get some proper sleep in a big-enough bed

She's not curly, but not unlike a tiny Merida

Will PM you.

Is a 4' bed a double bed? Because the wee punk can easily pinch 1/2 a king size bed! :eek: We are planning on moving her to a double bed, probably after our holiday in May (can rearrange her furniture and move the armchair downstairs).

£0.35 paid off a CC - taking DD to Edinburgh Butterfly & Insect world as a wee treat. For once I've been working too hard - was typing up notes to assist a colleague until after 10 last night

Enjoy the butterfly farm

4ft is queen size, so about 6 inches narrower than a double & 1 ft than a king. Maybe a "you'll have to budge up" might make her value her own bed space more.

A UK Queen - an American Queen is 5' x 6'8" (in real money)

I find any response other than moving gets you an accidental? kick in the throat from a sleeping toddler :rotfl:

A double bed for a toddler?! You are mad, Ed!

Get her a single else she will think it normal for one tiny human to have a double bed!

They will have to invent a quadruple if she ever gets married!
