Toddler Bed or Full?

I am due with our second in late March/early April and have a 2 year old that turns 3 in April.  The husband and I are going to let the baby have Izzy's crib and put her in her own "big girl" bed.  I'm sorta stuck when making this decision.  I want her to have one of those cutsie beds that's her size, but I also want to be practical and get a full bed so I won't have to be buy another for her.  Please help with this decision!!!

hi there! sorry that you havent got a response yet!!   when my daughter turned 2...we put her into a "big girl bed" we got her a single bed. she is now 4 and still has the same bed and she loves it. there is more then enough room for her!  it has drawers under it for storage... and it came with a really nice headboard with shelves.
its completely up to you what you decide to do... i know some of my friends have put their kids into double beds so that they dont have to buy a new bed when the kids get bigger.

thanks!  I think that we're going to do what you've done...at least for now until we move into a bigger place...I don't think that she would have any room for anything else if we were to get her a double or full.  

Thanks again!

my mum said when i was 2yrs old i was straight in a single Divan bed not a childs bed and it lasted for years! but my little sister she brought her a kiddies bed and she hates it lol, so wont sleep init so my mum had to buy her a normal single bed, so the kiddy bed was a waste of money.
