Bed advice - no...not dog beds
Since my daughter has a full size bed and will NOT sleep in it...I am thinking it is just too big for her.
DO you think I should invest in a twin bed instead OR buy her one of those little dora fold out couch things that go on the floor (which is where she is currently sleeping) until she is ready to sleep in a bigger bed?
WWYD?

Re: Bed advice - no...not dog beds
No to the foldout bed - we have one of those and we use it when we travel, and she's WAY too big for it, and constantly falling off of it and rolling around on the floor at night.
Have you thought about maybe a toddler bed? Something that's nice and compact for her, but probably won't be quite as $$ as investing in a twin bed?

I would go the cheaper route. I can't imagine a twin bed will solve your sleep problems.

I have the same problem.
when he finally falls asleep, he stays asleep through the night on the crib mattress...its on the floor. most mornings, I still find him on the floor though...

She slept in a toddler bed forever...but it was getting too small for her (or so I thought). I was finding her on the floor a lot.
How much does a twin bed run, anyone know?

Re: Bed advice - no...not dog beds
I agree with the toddler bed. If you still have your crib mattress all you have to do is buy the frame. We got Nate's at BRU for $100. You could also check Craigslist or something.
ETA: Just saw your post.... A twin mattress with box spring could run $200-300. You could avoid having to buy a box spring by getting a platform bed. IKEA sells them pretty cheap.

I would keep trying the bed. They all eventually get tired of the floor.
If you think she needs to feel snuggled, line pillows up along side her.
