While pregnant, I undertook major domestic tasks such as knitting, sewing, and crib bumper making. I worked hard on those bumpers. So you can imagine my dismay when every health professional we spoke with advised (strongly) against using them in the crib. Desperate to show off my handy work (to who, Helena?), at our 4 month well visit, again, I asked the doctor if I could use the bumpers yet.
"No, never."
At this point I'm adding up all of the wasted hours and dollars I spent putting these things together.
Two months later (now), I put these now famous bumpers on the crib, just to see what happens.
She's never slept better.
Case closed.
Boo-yah.

I think I had heard some questioning about whether bumpers were safe, but didn't realize doctors felt that strongly about it. Wow! Can you post pictures of your bumpres, or email me one? I'd love to see them!
I have had bumpers on since day 1 and when I do have them off to wash and it is naptime it is hell so yes, they do sleep better with them on. Great job Kristen, they are beautiful!
