She loves to play with it until she gets tired and rolls over to her belly to sleep. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460554 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:30:19 +0000 prettylizy 460554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She has a lovey (Elephant head blanket thingy) that has been in her crib since around 6 months. She doesn't love it but she plays with it when she wakes up and hangs out there after her naps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460544 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:24:33 +0000 Mrs. Pen 460544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked our dr at his 6 month appt and since he was rolling both ways and had great head control she ok'ed the A&amp;A blankets. He sleeps with it day and night and he's 10 mos. but he doesn't think of it as a lovey, sadly, he wouldn't notice if it were gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460539 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:20:24 +0000 winniebee 460539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think my son could take them or leave them, but I started giving a lovey at nap time around 5 months (he had mastered rolling at 4 months). I let him sleep with one starting around 6.5 months....not sure if he even likes it. I gave him a soft animal for a nap recently and he snuggled with it th ewhole time. It was very cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460521 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:10:01 +0000 Weagle 460521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Mine doesn't really like loveys either. No loveys, no pacis, nothing. On one hand I like it because it's a habit we won't have to break. On the other, it would be nice if she used some object to comfort her.</p> <p>I leave a lovey in her bed anyway. She plays with it when she wakes up or needs to let a bit of energy out before going to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460510 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:02:35 +0000 buffalove 460510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i struggle with this too! DS loves the lovey against his face and I recently caught him putting it OVER his face...scary! Now i only let him get settled in with it against his face (it's between his cheek and the mattress) then take it away once he's settled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460075 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 11:09:52 +0000 twinmama 460075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just about to write this same post! our are 5 months and started having a hard time with the arms to crib transfer recently. i'm finding a stuffed animal helps, but i'm trying to decide if there's a certain type that's safer than others. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460074 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 11:09:20 +0000 Bao 460074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: That's what I do now, let her snuggle with her blankie while rocking/nursing her but then she goes in her crib with just her sleep sack on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460073 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 11:08:04 +0000 Mrsbells 460073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO likes stroking my face or her lovey whilst she falls asleep but I dont leave it in her crib once she is asleep. She is 8 months old </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460068 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 11:05:13 +0000 mrs. wagon 460068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wagon Jr. didn't care about his lovey until much later. Now he's totally attached to it. He now has 4-5 friends join him in bed every night, all small stuffed animals, now that he's 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460027 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:46:20 +0000 loveisstrange 460027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C started sleeping with hers at 6 months old when we stopped swaddling. She sleeps in a sleepsack with a lovey and one of our AA blankets now. She loves cuddling them at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460026 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:45:49 +0000 mediagirl 460026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know but I'm in a different position. My lo doesn't like loveys! She wants nothing to do with them. It's very odd... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460019 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:44:28 +0000 babynumber1 460019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just started at 6.5 months. It hasn't changed her sleep at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460010 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:39:53 +0000 Mrs. Bee 460010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>most resources are reluctant to say loveys are ok because of the aap's recommendation that nothing should be in the crib until 1 year. the no cry sleep solution says it's ok from 4 months when baby is strong enough to move their head. i gave olive a lovey at 6 months and only for naps when i could watch her on the video monitor. when she had mastered rolling over both ways, i gave her the lovey at all times (day and night). it really helps them sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-loveys-safe-to-sleep-with#post-460001 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:33:01 +0000 Bao 460001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO sleeps in just a sleep sack with nothing else in her crib. She is almost 4 months old but really loves to snuggle her blankies during the day. Do you think "lovey's"/Angel dear blankets are safe to sleep with at this point, or should she be older? </p>
