We've moved DD1 to her big girl bed, but the box spring/mattress combo is way too high (I think it's higher up than my bed!).
I plopped the mattress w/o box spring on the bed frame, and it's the perfect height for her, but I'm worried if that's okay.....
The bed frame has bed rails on it....at least 10 I think......and it's a full size bed.
Will I harm the mattress if it doesn't have something solid under it? DH and I do plan on sleeping in the bed if DD1 is ever sick...or scared from thunderstorms....and we'll be in the bed when we read stories and such.
I have seen "bunky boards" online.....which are basically plywood with a sheet wrapped around it that gets laid on top of the bed rails....so I could do that easily with a trip to lowes, but DH (of course :)) thinks that's unnecessary and the mattress will be fine on its own.
Any BTDT??
