BedBugz Portable Bed Bolster

I have a long story as to why I am putting my tot on this bed but the bottom line is, she has to be here and this bed does not allow for traditional bed rails because of the platform frame. We have piled pillows along the sides but of course that is not fool proof. This is also not her permanent bed so I can’t switch out the furniture so the best thing was to find the best solution for this situation. I found these inflatable bolsters in white which makes it look like another pillow, kind of. It inflates with a foot pump, not something you want to do everyday but for a one time deal it is fine (took about 10 minutes). There is a surprisingly nice white cover that goes over the plastic inner tube, it’s soft and has a slight sheen like high thread count sheets do. It is secured on the mattress with a thick elastic band and is adjusted and tightened using a buckle, which is very easy to do. The buckle tucks under the top mattress which means you have to secure it before you fit it on so this could take a couple of tries before you get the best fit – not a big deal at all. This is not going to be as safe as a bed rail because it is easy to dislodge and shove off the bed if your tots decide to play some sort of game with it but for bigger toddlers, it is enough to stop them from rolling off the bed in their sleep. Definitely good enough as an alternative if you are unable to get a bed with a railing or a traditional bed rail, and plus, it looks so much nicer! At Amazon.com for $49.99. Also comes in prints and other solid colors but trust me, the white is the only acceptable one.
