Hi,

This is probably a dumb question but I'm unsure what to do... as a tiny bubs we always use to wrap bubs and then put her under her blankets (she was a winter baby) in her cot. As she got older and started doing 180 degree flips in bed we started using a grobag (I absolutely love them and highly recommended them), well as summer came along the grobag had to go and now she sleeps with no sheet at all and is sleeping well. My concern is that she will need to move to a big girl bed soon and will eventually require a sheet (don't want her 14 years old and still sleeping in a grobag!) but I'm worried she will flip under there and end up sleeping under the sheets and suffocating... how do little ones adapt to

a) sleeping at the top of a big bed
b) not sliding/rolling/squirming down to the other end of the bed and under sheets?

Forgive my naiveity (sp?) - first time mum syndrome!! :o

I'm in the same boat a bit!
DS will not stay under any shhets or balnkets, so in winter I put him a sleeping bag & lots if layer s under.... I have the same concerns, but i have been told that they grow out of that whole rolling all over the bed thing!! We'll see...
I'm just glad that we are moving him into a big bed during summer where there is no sheets required really!! :o
