And if so, what did you do?
Ash is currently down visiting his gran. Normally when visiting there he sleeps in a travel cot. This trip however he has figured out how to climb out of the travel cot (it has a sort of mesh fabric side panels). So Kristi and my mum picked up an ordinary wooden cot to sleep in. It has plain wooden slats along the side (running vertically of course). They are smooth with nothing he can get a grip on.
None of this stopped him toddling downstairs after he'd been put to bed tonight. Now, I can think of several ways to stop him climbing out, however I am pretty sure Kristi would veto all of them, so I thought I'd ask if any fellow parents have had this issue and how they stopped their spawn from escaping?
Tie him up? Put a large weight on top of him? Lock him in a dog carrier? :question:
my sister has 2 sardine nets that have been around since my nieces were munchkins that got tied across the top of their cribs, and are still in use today .
Dude, you know those toddler leashes you've seen parents clipping onto their kids in public places and you thought they were appalling and you'd never use something like that on your own offspring?
Well they work really well.
I've always thought those things were a great idea. We've had them since before Ash was born lol.
