Co-Sleeping safety

A while ago while I was sleeping, since my daughter is starting to get wiggley at night, she fell out of bed. She was ok, just bumped her hed and scared herself. The doctor actually laughed at me when I took her in and said, 'oh its ok, babies bounce you know!' (im thinking about getting a new doctor, it may be silly to him but I was upset and wanted more than a joke... but anyway)

I was wondering if anyone knows of some sort of siding that I could put  on my bed or something I could put up to to make sure she is staying in the bed even if I dont wake up when  she rolls ^^ Thanks guys!

There is a siding that you can buy at most stores. I know Toys R Us has them and I think Target. I have never bought them, but they look like they just attach and go up above the edge of the bed by about a foot. I was thinking of gettting them. My daughter has done the same thing, twice. I feel soo bad. If you feel like your doctor is not taking you serious enough, maybe you should find a different one. I hope this helps. I believe the siding is called a railing, but I am not posative. I bet you could also find some online. I hope this helps.

We got a bedrail at Target or Walmart for my older daughter.  It was just in the baby aisle near the other gadgets.  You can probably find it online but we got it in the store.

It basically goes under the mattress, but on top of the boxspring and can adjust to any size bed up to a King I believe.

We got a bed rail at Babies R Us and it works great with our queen size mattress.  I only need it on my side and she is much safer, especially because we have tile floors.  It was very easy to set up.

Ok thanks guys! I saw one in walmart but it had all this 'dont put a child in an adult bed ever'  and there is never anyone around to answer your questions (and even if there is they probably are anti co-sleeping so it wouldnt matter anyway lol) but I didnt want to get it and have it be wrong, but if they are more or less all the same then I'm going to go pick one up tomorrow!!

Once again thank you for your help ^^
