Re: Bumper Poll

I registered for both a breathable and a regular and I'm still debating which, if either, I am going to use.

I used the reg. ones with my son. My sister gave me both or this baby so I think I will use the breathable ones until she is old enough to not get hurt.

Re: Bumper Poll

I didn't even think about breathable ones! I guess that would fall under other.

Re: Bumper Poll

They came in the package for DS's set, we didn't use them. When DD came along, we didn't even bother buying a set, nor did we use bumpers.

To me, not worth the risk or what ifs. If I really wanted bumpers, I would use the breathable ones...but honestly there is no reason to use them.

Re: Bumper Poll

I picked have used them and will again but we will see this time. I had no problem using them with dd (7 yrs old). I feel like its so bare and cold in the crib with nothing but at the same time, don't want to take any risks.

That's how I feel. I would also worry that LO would stick their arms and legs through the slats. I guess breathable is a good compromise.

I used Breathable Bumpers. Bumpers came with the bedding set I ordered but I refused to use them.

Not using them. If I can find breathable bumpers that go with my bedding then maybe, but as of now I do not plan to use them. I got regular bumpers from my mom when she got my bedding but I had her return them.

I used them for DD in 2008. I live in Chicago and they became illegal here when I was pregnant with DS. He is almost 1 and doesn't have them. I won't get them for #3 either.

I thought about breathable ones but never found organic ones and I feel strongly about the mattress, sheets and pj's not be treated with flame retardant chemicals.

i had the breathable ones but had to switch when my DS turned 7 months, he rolled around like crazy in his crib and kept bumping his head, waking him up in the middle of the night. I put the regular ones in there and so far, so good.
