Like @looch, I am aware of what the AAP states, but was very comfortable with our decision to use them. I took them out when she started standing and dropped her mattress down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crib-bumpers#post-256556 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 08:48:30 +0000 looch 256556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have both breathable and regular. The breathable ones weren't a good fit in our crib, so I took them out and I need to either sell them or repurpose them into some storage bins.</p> <p>We are using a regular padded bumper and have been since DS could reliably roll over with no issues. I am fully aware of the AAP recs, but made the decision on an informed basis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crib-bumpers#post-256553 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 08:46:42 +0000 Mrs. Bee 256553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we use breathable bumpers. i wouldn't feel safe with regular bumpers, but the aap came out against all bumpers, including breathable ones. </p> <p>the breathable ones are so thin olive sometimes pushes them all the way down. sometimes when she does, her leg gets stuck in the crib slats. so i prefer to have them on there. i adjust them almost every day, but it only takes a second. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crib-bumpers#post-256548 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 08:43:16 +0000 Clementine 256548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We finally got our LO his crib, he was rocking out the PnP for long time. However, he's been hitting his head against the sides of the bed. I didn't plan on getting any bumpers because they can pose suffocation risks, but hitting his head against the wood isn't a good idea either.</p> <p>If you own some crib bumpers, do you like yours? </p>
