THe is thing is we leave from San Francisco so we don’t have a flight to catch so I am able to pack things I may not normally be able to

I love the pool noodle idea I’ll get that one to bring with us thank u guys! I was thinking about that too about the couch being on the ground.. the pull out couches in hotels r much bigger beds than the couch cushions so he doesn’t roll on the floor but with it being such a smaller bed than he sleeps at home (the couch) I’m sure he’d roll so the noodle will definitely help! 

Hi hoping I am posting this on the correct area I apologize if I’m not.. we are sailing in May on the miracle, it’s our second time on this ship but last time o did not have a child.  Our son is 10 months now and is already 32 inches tall he will be around 18-19 months at time of sailing.  We are trying to figure out bed arrangements.  Our travel agent suggested he sleep on the sofa bed because he sleeps with me at home and not in a crib (dad works nights so it’s just him and I in bed) so we don’t want all three of us in the bed (I know co sleeping is frowned upon and last cruise board I asked This question I was just bashed by everyone and no one answered my question so I hope at least one person here can get past the cosleeping because it’s not going to change lol) anyways my question about the sofa bed I hear it’s just the sofa they put the sheet on but I’m wondering is there a way we can move the mattress part to the ground? I guess it would be the couch cushion? Has any one tried this? Or any suggestions from moms besides pack and play? When we stay in hotels we always get a sofa bed (the pull out kind) and move that mattress to the ground and he sleeps on it so was hoping to do the same type of situation here. I know what I’m askong isn’t normal most kids will sleep on a crib and I’m sure most readers like the last board I posted on will say I need to stop having him on my bed or try to transition and i get that just hoping to get an answer about the sofa bed thanks 

Sorry new to posting.. I hope this is the right place this time lol... I am pretty sure I have check the jr suite off the list but I wanted to see if any one has experience on Carnival Miracle to give me personal experience with each of these suites and what you like. I have read some reviews and watched room tours, but most of the reviews only review two of the suites, just wanted to see if I can get some extra insight if possible. Thank you

that is true! it isnt much time and we really want to experience the cruising style we normally do resorts haha!

I do not mind crowds at all, but I could see how having more stops if we wanted to stay on the ship we could, its just would be hard to stay on the ship when theres a new place haha!

And to the first response, I stated we were fine with eastern from Miami... and Miami is easier, but we liked the islands in southern so it was a tie,,,thats why I am asking if it is better to have more days at sea or port stops, we cant take a longer cruise and we are not stuck on southern this is just where I am in the decision making process and the more stops vs more sea days is the final thing we are deciding and I wanted advice from people who have cruised.

I know this has probably been brought up before and I have been searching on here and google but cant find the answer. So I am booking a Caribbean cruise in January 2016, I THINK I finally decided on the southern Caribbean cruise from San Juan, however it is easier for us financially and time wise to fly to Miami, but the cruises from Miami have less stops, more days at sea (we do not want the western Caribbean, Eastern or southern only at this point). I can see a positive to both more time on board, less time having to worry about waking up to get an excursion in, but we also want to see the islands too. I just wanted some of your expert opinions on the pros and cons of having more sea days vs more stops. The ones we are looking at currently is a 7 day that has 5 stops, compared to miami that is also 7 days but has 3-4 stops so typically they have two days at sea starting then two days back at sea heading back to Miami. I do not have experience because I know most people will say it differs on personality/preference which is what my cousin told me lol but I just want what you guys think the pros and cons are because I have no clue!
