breathable bumpers not fitting right

Anyone have a problem with getting these to fit your crib? I have this crib: Lullabye CoCo Bear

crib


When I put the bumpers in, there is space/hole by the corners that doesn't look right. Also, the front bumper does not stay in right...it sort of sags and doesnt get a good tight fit. It's been frustrating me all day!

HELP!

OK, try this (I hope this makes sense):

Take the tie in the middle of the bumper and tie it to the middle vertical rail in the front. Do the same for the second bumper for the middle vertical rail in the back. Before the last vertical rail weave the bumper outside, then inside (covering the inside of the corner vertical rail), then back out, then back in. Do that to all 4 of the ends. Now adjust the ends to wrap around the last vertical rail, as far as they go and velcro them as tight as possible. Adjust as needed. Hope this helps!

This is what I did! I watched a youtube video too to see if I was missing something. I did it the same way and there is still like a big gap in the front two corners..I tried pulling it down a bit too. So annoying. You dont have any hole/gap near the corners right? I gotta take a picture to show you what I mean!

Take a picture! I'd take a picture of mine, but I don't know if it would help --- I only used one of the two in the front since the back of my crib is solid. I will if you want me to though!
