Crib Placement

We have limited space in our nursery and the crib either has to go under a ceiling vent, or with the foot under a window. The window space is viewable from the door of the room, the vent space is not. Any opinions about which is the lesser of two evils?

    I would do under the vent.  Circulating air is supposed to be good for SIDS prevention and if it is too much air you can partially or fully close the vent if needed.   The window doesn't sound like a good option since I assume you'll want window coverings of some sort and those can become dangerous once your little one is pulling up to standing and possibly before depending on length

    I agree with PP. :)

    Vent it is - DH looked again and figured out how to angle it so that it's not blowing on the baby. Thanks for the advice!
