Re: Have you lowered the crib mattress yet?

  • He's never even attempted to pull up -- not crawling, not scooting...

  • Ginny isn't crawling, but is kiiiind of scooting (backwards, if at all), but the other night she reached up and touched the top bar. Fluke? Perhaps, but now I wanna lower the mattress!

    Made me wonder where the rest of the babies were at with their cribs.

  • He sleeps in the PnP on a mattress. He tries to grab the mesh.. but he can't. So if and when I do switch him to a crib, I will probably lower it.

    This is us.  He's military crawling everywhere and sometimes gets one knee under him.  He hasn't started pulling up on his own but he can reach the top of the crib and has grabbed on a couple times.  I'm so paranoid that I'm worried the first time he pulls himself up will be in the middle of the night and will just flip himself out.  Sometimes I hate my imagination.

    :::quietly wonders how many will lower the mattress due to my paranoid vision::: (sorry!)

  • We bed share but LO goes in the crib to play/relax sometimes and he pulled himself to stand holding the rail. Had the lower the crib last weekend.

  • I already have to get on my tippy toes to put her in without waking her up. I hope she's sleeping better before I have to move it down.

    Haha me too.  But we are no where near pulling up or standing so I think we have some time.
  • He rolls around in his crib likes mad man. When I'm looking at the monitor he is using his feet to try and push off the sides. One day I was in there and he kicked his einstein aquarium off the side of the crib. He's just a wild man!

    We will probably have to lower it soon. He has legs for days.
  • LO is crawling and pulling herself up. She first pulled herself up in the crib a couple weeks ago and we immediately lowered the mattress that night. My child is apparently advanced and I kinda wish she wasn't!

  • She's not crawling or pulling up yet, so we haven't lowered it.

    I voted my baby doesn't sleep though. She's only in her crib for a few hours before she wakes up and comes into bed with us, where she nurses on and off the rest of the night.

  • Will just started attempting getting on his glands and knees. I will probably be lowering his mattress within the next month.

    I didn't know what to pick...

    We have never moved the mattress back UP after DS2 moved out of it!  So, it has been at the lowest level since DS3 was born!

    We also started out with the crib on the lowest setting. If not, we would be having to lower it soon because she is starting to pull herself up to a standing position.

  • Addi just started being able to get into the sitting position from her tummy so we lowered it figuring it was only a matter of time before she started pulling up
