lower crib mattress

Moms, 

Have anyone done this yet? LO is not pulling himself up yet but just sat himself up from lying down. I took his mobile down : - (

We did a week or two ago.

Mine is already half lowered but now she's pulling up we will the rest of the way ASAP

We lowered ours a while ago. Standing up happens quickly, so I would definitely lower it soon.

We lowered ours weeks ago.  They can never do something until they can do it  I don't like risking them mastering something on the first try and catching me off guard lol

We also lowered a few weeks ago. And this morning he had completely pulled himself up to a standing position! You never know what they can do.. Until they do it!

We just lowered ours. He hasn't stood up in it yet, but he pulls up on other thing all the time. There is a definite moment of suspension for him now. :-)

Just did this two days ago. She learned to sit up and started grabbing at the sides. I waited a few days for DH to help, but she was trying pull up at nap time, so I finally just did it myself.

We lowered sometime around the new year, he was starting to pull himself up so it was time. Now I find him standing in there all the time

So apparently we are the minority that havent' done so, eeekkkk. Alrighty, so I am no mom of the year and tried to do this myself and that was a major fail! Looks like DH has a project to do tomorrow!! 

Thanks ladies.

Lowered a month ago and she pulled up a few days later.

DD's pedi recommended we left it high, even though she was pulling up. I didn't like the idea though, so it's on the lowest setting.

Ermm...what was his rationale for that? :-/

We haven't done it yet... G isn't pulling himself up yet, nor can he get himself into a sitting position. Once he can however, we'll lower ours.

This is us too.

We lowered a few weeks ago and she started standing up in her crib last week.

We just lowered his tonight, and his mobile turns into a ceiling projector. He's loving it! He has always been good at just falling asleep in his crib, but tonight was the fastest I've seen him pass out.

Yes, we've had to lower the mattress. Our little one likes to stand up in her crib.

We already lowered too. Funny story though- H and I are both pretty tall, so neither of us even thought about how the lowering would effect a shorter person. When my mom babysat, she couldn't get him in!! She ended up making his a makeshift bed on the floor! We have a stool there now for when grandma babysits!

Dude, how short is your mother? LOL  I'm 4'10 and I can lower my kid into a fully lowered crib
