What is the earliest you transitioned a toddler from a crib to a regular bed...?

We are looking at furniture for DD's room and I am wondering if she would be too young to switch her to a regular bed already. She is about 20 months right now.
Thanks!

We are planning on putting DS directly into a twin or full sized bed. We are putting the mattress basically just on the boxspring (that's the height it will be) we plan on doing this around 18 months or so.

my dd has been in a bed since about 13 months. we didnt' do it on purpose- but DD had gotten used to sleeping in our bed w/ us- and we wanted her out- and she just did NOT want to go in a crib- so we put her in a bed- and she's been fine.
now she has a full.

This is our EXACT reason for wanting to change at 20 months. Did it work right away? or did you have to lay in her bed a few nites?

DS #1 was 22 months and DS#2 was 30 months. Neither one of them ever climbed out of their cribs.

I still have to lay in bed w/ her for her to go to sleep.... Chat Icon I am not exactly sure how to stop that- but she does stay in her bed all night long. we shut the door and she just calls us over the monitor in the morning.

DS is 14 mos and we are in the process of looking for a toddler bed. He climbs out of his crib already. To the floorChat Icon

My DD was 18 months when we put her in a "big girl" bed. We put the rail on the side, and the other side was against a wall. She did really well with it.
