in the last few weeks DS keeps getting his knee stuck in the cot rungs. The first couple of times it was an accident but now l think the little toad is doing it on purpose to get us to come in and see him when hes meant to be sleeping.
l've tried putting a bumper on his cot but it doesnt go up high enough if that makes sense. Any other suggestions? ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

No ideas really unless you want to take the opportunity to put him into a bed? -------------  |

| Use a grobag then his legs won't stick out. |

They look good ta but l'm still not sure if they go high enough, he tends to stand up then get his knee wedged. We have tried a sleeping bag and he hates it, will have to keep thinking ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Get an old sheet and use that like the mesh bumpers, just safety pin it together. Run it along the inside of the rungs, put it through the gap between the last rung and the end of the cot side, and join the 2 ends with safety pins IYKWIM?? This way you can have it as high as you like. There is one gap at each end but Jack never managed to get his legs stuck in those gaps ------------- Lindsey

I've got those mesh wrap 'bumpers', they aren't very high at all. We used them to help stop DS throwing his dummy out the cot.
Sheet idea sounds good to me. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">
