Moving LO to toddler bed?

I have no idea if this has been asked recently (since the search function is lame) but has anyone been considering moving their LO to a toddler bed yet? Or has anyone done this yet? Since we are expecting LO #2 later this year, we are gearing up to think about moving her in the next few months to get her used to it before the LO comes along. Just wondering if anyone had success yet? Or is there any way to know when is a good time? DD has not tried to climb out of her crib yet. I'm just not looking forward to her being able to roam around the room by herself, so not sure what to expect. Thanks!

    I'm giving him a few months before the baby is born to see how it goes and that he adjusts before the ne
