DD USED to sleep, but now...

... She keeps hitting her head on the crib bars and waking up!  She moves around a lot in her sleep.  I swear she's doing acrobatic stuff.  She'll sit up, flop around, turn over, downward dog, you name it.  However, when doing these acrobatics, she smacks her head on the crib sides.  I can hear it from the other room.  She then wakes up screaming and has to be soothed to sleep.  This happens EVERY SINGLE HOUR AND A HALF!

 Suggestions?  A bumper is out because she also smooshes her face into the crib bars.

    Sorry!!! DS was doing this awhile ago, it only lasted a couple of days and then he just stopped smacking his head.  It sucks but I couldn't think of anything to stop him from doing it. Just know that this too shall pass :)

    Lol well, I'm glad DD isn't the only one risking a head injury in her sleep and it will pass!  I need more sleep...

    Beckett kicks the shiit out of the crib bars.  And never sleeps.  It has been awful this week.

    Ugh!  I'm sorry he's in it, too!  DH just told me to sleep with DD in our bed tonight so I can get more than an hour and a half of sleep at a time... It's SO tempting but she's too much of a mover and she'll probably roll off.

    i think they are pretty expensive, but maybe you are (or know someone) who can sew?

    They make breathable bumpers.
