Should I pack my bedrail for vacation home stay?

[labdogs42]

We leave for Disney tomorrow and I'm almost finished packing. Right now, we have one large and one medium suitcase to check for our family of three. That's my usual amount of bags. Now I'm debating adding one more bag so i can take a bedrail for DS. We're staying in a vacation home and as far as I know, they don't have any bedrails there. DS is two and will probably sleep with us or on a twin mattress on the floor in our room. I don't want him to fall out in either case. I was thinking of just buying a bedrail down there an leaving it at the house, but now that I think about it, I can probably toss one I have into a small suitcase and take it with me. What do you think? Should I take it?

I really don't know if I would. If he is going to either be sleeping with you or on a mattress on the floor you probably wouldn't need it. What I do at my parents house is this: (they pull a mattress off the bed and put it on the floor too -- the kids call it the olympic pad) We put one side up against the wall or couch and on the other side I put pillows next to the mattress. He usually doesn't roll but if he did he would roll on to the pillows first. Good luck!

The home we stayed in had them, but we actually rented a crib from A Baby's Best Friend and they have bedrails as well. They deliver to your rental home.

We just stayed at the BWV with our 2 year old and we requested bedrails. They were Safety First and worked fine on the sofa bed or the king bed.
