Cot bumper

tinyme77 · Dec 7th, 2009, 12:42 PM

I'm not sure whether that is the right name for what i want but my LO has started to turn himself around and can get his feet/legs between the bars of his cot. I'm not sure whether it is possible for him to hurt himself but don't want to risk it. Should i get one of those things that run around the sides? If so do you have any recommendations? Thanks

never used one, there is a lot of conflicting advice out there regarding them, some say not to use them under 6 months or so coz of the risk of overheating, strangulation and suffocation - then others say dont use them after 6 months coz lo can use them as an aid to climb

difficult one to call tbh

but the airwrap one looks fab x

The Airwrap one does look really good and really good value compared to the normal ones. I think that we might get one. Thanks for posting the link.
Luckily my LO is currently not mobile enough for me to have to worry about them climbing.
It seems that you solve one problem only for them to grow into another one!
