[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, get a portable bumper that fits under the sheet on the bed. Usually what we would do is get a double room and I would share a bed with or 2 year old, so she'd be between me and the bumper. As she got older, we could do the bumper on one side and a kind of wall of pillows on the other, but we only did that once she was used to sleeping in a regular bed at home (though one closer to the ground than a hotel bed). You can also put the bumper on a couch if it's deep enough (again, tucked under a sheet). But this may or may not work for your kid if they feel confined in a pack and play. But it's worth it to experiment and see what works best. You can play around with it at home. For portable bumpers, you can get an inflatable one but make sure you have a way to blow it up. We actually used a non-inflatable one (so it was like a hard pillow). It folded in half and I could fit it in a suitcase (had to bring a bigger suitcase to accommodate. But we only had to use it for about a year, so just a few plane trips and everything else was in the car. I didn't want to deal with an inflatable bumper because I worried it would spring a leak or we'd have trouble blowing it up.[/quote] You can just use extra towels and get the same effect. Call housekeeping for extra linens to build your own bumper. [/quote]
