bumpers
My 7 month old is very active while he sleeps. When he turns he tends to grab onto the top of the bumpers and pull. I was thinking of taking them out, but I am afraid he might bump his head on the crib bars.
Any thoughts???

Re: bumpers
I read that you are supposed to take them out when the baby can stand- because they use them to to stand on and it's enough to boost them out of the crib.

Re: bumpers
I never had bumpers in. Personally I think they aren't necessary, just pretty.
He can't bump his head hard enough that it will matter, but eventually he will be able to climb and thats real trouble!

Re: bumpers
I definately think that the breathable bumpers from onestepahead.com are a good idea once the kiddos start getting more active. Luckily we haven't had to go that route just yet.

Re: bumpers
My daughter does the same thing. My DH wants to take the bumpers out, but I lean toward keeping them in for your reasons, plus I think she likes putting her face on them. I will take them out when she is able to stand on them.

Re: bumpers
i won't be using them at all due to the possible suffocation hazard. if necessary i will use the breathable bumpers.
