Just out of curiosity...

Re: Just out of curiosity...
No. After about 6 weeks of changing the sheets with that thing on I said "crew this" and took it off!
It was cute, but a pain, plus not that DS stands up in his crib, I am pretty sure he would try and stand on it if it was there and that is where the real hazard is (as far as I am concerned).
Yes, we are. Jack loves them. He likes to smush himself in the corner of the crib with his head pressed against them. It is a major pain to untie them all to change the sheets! Ugh! He has only been using them for the past few months. He slept next to my bed until he was about 6 1/2 months and even then I waited a little bit to start using them to make sure he was good and strong enough to keep from getting caught up in them or anything. We might have to drop his bed to the lowest level here soon because he is starting to try and step up on them, like he's going to climb out.
No, we never did. I wish we did break some rules because the crib is so bare and inhospitable. I think DD would like to sleep there better if there were blankets and stuff. But I do not break safety rules (just me, not judging anyone).
I always think this! DS's crib is white and has a white sheet. It looks so cold and uninviting!
My friend has bumpers and a little nook of blankets and stuffies in her son's crib and it looks so cozy! But I just can't bring myself to put anything in there. Plus DS has been starting to climb so no way I'd give him any leverage now!
This is where I am at too....
DD is now co-sleeping with us since she has been sick and a part of me wonders if her bed was more comfy and inviting like ours, she would spend more time in it.
But I am still hesitant with the bumpers!
I wove mine through the bars of the crib - just to make it more inviting and give her something to look at (it's patterned with animals). But then, she also sleeps with a blanket and there's usually a few stuffed animals in there with her. Once I learned her sleeping habits and she was strong and mobile, I stopped worrying about that stuff (around 6 months).
She didn't start sleeping in there until 7 or 8 months anyway.

Yes, I used bumpers with both of my boys from day 1. Owen also uses a blanket. He has a couple of soother animals (seahorse and monkey with music) and also his lovey (blanket bear). All the same that I did with his big brother too. Works great for us.
