In the cot are toys and bumpers allowed . Should you place your baby at the bottom of the cot?

    Bumpers are not considered safe - that said, I have mesh bumpers on my crib to keep arms and legs from getting stuck. No toys at this age but I imagine he'll have a stuffed animal or something that he sleeps with when he's older. And... I just put him in the middle but I've never heard of putting them at the bottom.

    Huh?
    No bumpers. Suffocation risk or climbing risk.
    No toys.
    No blankets.

    Put baby in the middle of the crib.

    I swaddle my baby, put a blanket over him, and he has a line of stuffed animals by his head for comfort.

    He doesnt like the one I got. Do you have a kind I should try? I put a feather mattress pad on the bed but I dont think it is soft enuff.

    Any feather pillow will do. The bigger, the better.

    So true!  I like to put one on each side of his head too.  It makes him feel comfy.

    Am I the only one confused about why she's just now asking these questions, 4 months after her baby was born?

    Are yall being serious about the pillows and toys in bed with your 4 month old ??
    Safe sleeping guidelines say nothing should be in the crib with your infant. Not even a blanket over them. Due to risk from dieing from sids or suffocation . I'm a labor and delivery nurse . Please take safe sleeping guidelines serious . I've seen far too many code pinks (infants coming into the ER dead ) from SIDS and 95% of the time parents are ignoring safe sleeping guidelines. Please SIDS is real and it happens far to often .

    No lie I'm a horrible speller, but at least I can admit that! One doesn't have to be a great speller to be a great nurse. I hope nobody took you serious, you'd be surprise the stuff I see as a nurse and some people could very likely take you serious. Just saying !

    So you write in people's medical records as nurse? I think you should brush up on spelling
