He was probably around a year or so when it happened. It was not tight or dangerous, he just couldn't figure out how to back up to get it out.

A couple of times he got a leg stuck when we were in the room with him and he was purposefully sticking his leg through, and I just helped him. But during sleep, no. Never. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040798 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 14:48:44 +0000 Mommy Finger 2040798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never had a problem with not having bumpers. Although, for the first 7 month of DS's life, he slept in a pack n play due to living in our tiny condo and he did like to sleep with his face up against the side. I did have a friend who's daughter would only sleep well for naps with both her legs sticking out of the crib. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040727 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 14:14:25 +0000 kayakgirl73 2040727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have never had a bumper of any sort and she has never gotten stuck. She two but in a sleep sack at night but not during Nap. She never took a binky or paci so no issue with losing those. Also at daycare bumpers aren't allowed in the cribs by law. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040697 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 14:01:33 +0000 LuLu Mom 2040697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used breathable for about 3 months, and then she was trying to use them as a stepping stone and our doc said to take them out that she doesn't recommend them. I explained her leg is always through and she said she'd prefer that to a broken skull, I agreed :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040644 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 13:36:08 +0000 MapleMoose 2040644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 15 months old, never had a crib bumper on either crib in the nursery or her new bedroom, and has never gotten any appendage stuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040617 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 13:28:35 +0000 cranberry 2040617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 19 months and we've never had bumpers in her crib. I think she only got stuck once and that was when she was standing up, not when she was laying down or sleeping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040568 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 13:11:39 +0000 kiddosc 2040568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He would stick an arm or leg out all the time, but it only ever got stuck once. He wasn't hurt, just scared that he was stuck. If was going to be an ongoing problem, I would have put a bumper up. But since it only happened once, I didn't bother with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040557 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 13:07:55 +0000 raintreebee 2040557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took my breathable bumpers off the other day because I caught him trying to stand on them to propel himself over the crib (in case you need another argument to your husband). He hasn't gotten anything caught since, but he does sometimes toss his loveys or wubbanubs overboard now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040542 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 13:03:28 +0000 Mae 2040542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yea it happened all the time at first when she started rolling and sitting up a lot. Like at least a few times per week (counting all naps and bed time because we stay home). But it wasn't really a big deal. She'd get stuck and I'd go unstick her and move on with our lives. Now at 8 mo I can't remember the last time she got stuck. Probably a month ago or more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040537 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 13:02:12 +0000 Mrs. Deer 2040537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: her leg got stuck pretty tightly shortly after our breathable bumpers came off but we weren't in bed yet so I heard her crying and helped her :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040529 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:58:48 +0000 SeptMomma12 2040529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He's almost 2.5 and never got stuck once. I don't think I've ever even seen an arm hanging out or anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040525 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:57:53 +0000 lamariniere 2040525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've never used bumpers.

We did sleep sacks at night, so it wasn't an issue, and I just started putting him in sleep sacks for naptime too and it worked well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040475 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:39:31 +0000 catlady 2040475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've never had bumpers. We don't worry about legs too much since she's always in a sleep sack. Sometimes she sticks her arms through but she never gets stuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040469 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:34:59 +0000 catomd00 2040469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've never had any bumpers on and my daughter has gotten stuck where she needed rescued maybe three times total in the past 11 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040467 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:34:01 +0000 cat620 2040467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never used bumpers, and my son has only gotten his arm stuck once. It was really no big deal. He started crying, I came in, and then I helped him move his arm out. There was no bruising or anything. I'm not sure if it was really stuck or if he just didn't know how to pull his arm out himself. Anyway, it never happened again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040464 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:33:28 +0000 Smurfette 2040464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never had any and only once her feet were through the slats. But we saw it before we went to bed and moved her. I think she would have been fine to get out herself, since was like 18months old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040463 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:33:23 +0000 lawbee11 2040463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe once? She's 17.5 months. She does like to sleep with her limbs through the slats sometimes (weirdo!), but I think I've only had to help her once. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040460 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:29:16 +0000 irene 2040460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never had a bumper and never got stuck . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040457 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:28:54 +0000 Bubbles 2040457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO sleeps in a sleep sack so that takes care of his legs, but he's never once got his arms stuck. He moves around a lot in his cot and I've seen him with hands / arms through the holes, but he always gets them back in with no drama. He's 13 months and never had bumpers :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040455 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:28:24 +0000 Foodnerd81 2040455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have never had them and she has never gotten a limb stuck. She will stick a hand or foot through but she can always pull it back out. She is 18 months now and has always been a very active sleeper. She's also never whacked her head hard on the slats, which is what u was more afraid of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040451 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:25:56 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2040451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never happened to us and she is 14 months.

They've been off for about three months and he hasn't once got a limb stuck in the slats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-have-bumpers-of-any-sort-on-your-crib#post-2040444 Mon, 26 Jan 2015 12:23:13 +0000 coopsmama 2040444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...does your LO's arms/legs ever get stuck in the crib slats? We have breathable bumpers on our DD's crib right now but I'm sick and tired of the fact that they don't match her crib sheet. It's a total first world problem, I realize. :grin: They matched for our first LO and now, with a girl, it looks pretty dreadful. My husband is insistent that if I take them down (he was the one who wanted them up with our first) that she will get stuck in the slats. </p> <p>Has this happened to your LO or no? </p>
