CPW: What Level is Your Crib?

gutsymama · March 2014

Because it's Sunday, but it's always been Clicky Poll Whore to me.

Have you moved your crib down? Just curious. Luke is a sitting champion and can pull to stand but has not yet gone from laying flat to sitting. And I'd like to avoid lowering the crib until we really have to, since sometimes he doesn't want to be held but needs me to stand on tiptoes leaning over the crib rail to hug him while laying down until he goes to sleep.

We're at the lowest level because we're all tall including M (90% for height). She pulls to stand and does it whenever she wants us to pick her up.

My bed got lowered to the ground, does that count?

Dh lowered it a couple days ago. I think theres four settings and it on the second lowest. She hasnt pulled herself up using furniture yet but in a week she learned to sit by herself and crawl and she can grab our fingers and pull up so we decided to lower.

We r ss..... my husband built our crib... it is so cool (made out of logs) but there are no levels obviously

MRads · March 2014

We're still at the highest. I'm short and he hasn't figured out how to get in a sitting position, on his knees or how to pull up, so I'm not worried. And much as I love my kid, I'm not sure he would figure out that he could climb out even if he could pull to stand.

We figured it was time to lower it to the lowest level the day we found him like this. Didn't really want him taking a head dive.

fabk · March 2014

On the middle aetting but will probably lower it today.
I should have just gone straight to the lowest from the highest. But I am short and had to find a step stool first.

We lowered it all the way...but he's still sleeping in his swing. Bad mama.

Stacey099 · March 2014

Lowered all the way about a month ago. He stands up way too easily now and walks along the edge. Definetly a change with laying him down sleepy. Somuch farther to bend over in an awkward manner so we don't wake him

Dani428 · March 2014

Lowered all the way here. Charlotte is devious and I'm paranoid lol

thewif85 · March 2014

We just switched the crib to the lowest setting last night. We probably could have put it down to the middle setting, but it's a bit of a pain, so we just put it all the way down.

spb27 · March 2014

We started at the lowest bc I didn't want to deal with switching it.

hollandmama · March 2014

I lowered it to the lowest of 3 like a month ago but my back was killing me (he waked up n times during the night), as Luke, Gerardo can pull himself up from sitting but can't sit by himself, so I put it back to the middle of 3 levels. My back is happier and G is still safe, for now...

redhead610 · March 2014

Lowest of 4 settings. We lowered it one setting a few months ago when he started scooting and getting up on his knees. Then about a month ago I found him standing trying to climb out, so we put it all the way down.

stephyfaith · March 2014

My crib has 4 settings. Right now we are on 3rd lowest.

martyn17 · March 2014

Just lowered on Friday.

She wasn't able to get to sit by herself, but she was trying to pull up on things.

Then Thursday, we woke up to silence and found her sitting and playing in her crib and realized we better lower it pretty soon.

equinus · March 2014

Lowest setting here, but really he's only in there till 10 or 11 at night, then we bedshare. He likes to be at boob level too.

opheliainwaders · March 2014

We just lowered it...DD likes to sit in her crib sometimes while I put laundry away or whatever, and is figuring out how to pull to stand. She doesn't get to a sit by herself, but since I sometimes put her there, I figure better safe than sorry. #RockLyfe

TheLittleRedM · March 2014

I put that we haven't lowered but we need to. Haven't checked the settings yet so no clue about how low we will go.

thegoodpotato · March 2014

Human paperweight. Sits unassisted, but has to be placed that way.

Our crib only has two settings, so it's either all the way up or all the way down.

sdtchica13 · March 2014

We only have 2 levels on the crib, but I lowered it about a month and a half ago when Mr. Chubby started standing and giving me heart failure, lol.

rondosa · March 2014

We still have a rock baby, he sits well but can't sit from lying. However I sat him in the crib last week and he started pulling on the rails and was half standing so we lowered it one notch just in case. It's a bit of a pain as sometimes I have to place him in there sleeping, but it's not as bad as I expected.

PS - the image of you @Mimi4347 hanging over the rails hugging L until he's alseep is super cute!

(though I'm sure your back would disagree)

I share my bed with my little guy but my SO would like him to be in his crib by the time he's 1. He said he's ready to have me back in the bed with him

I can't even think about it, makes me sad to think of my LO not being beside me all night, every night.

We do have a crib though and it's still on the highest setting. My cousin is pregnant and I'm thinking about giving the crib to her, lol.

arlingirl · March 2014

We need to put ours on the next setting. Pretty sure ours only has two. Oliver pulls himself up when he wakes, but he hasn't been climbing stuff yet. Still...need to get it done. I could prob figure it out, but I'd like DH's help. He's just been such a lazy asshole lately. Don't even want to ask. Apparently I have to do everything.

weaslewam · March 2014

Yeah, my lil guy is getting too mobile to not have the crib on the lowest setting. It's a PITA to have to lower (for my crib anyways), so I'm glad it's finally on it's lowest setting. I may not even raise it when we have another baby.
