I wanted to do a bunting over the crib but now am re-thinking it. Especially for the hot and humid summers when things tend to fall off the walls if they're not nailed in tight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85305 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:53:16 +0000 looch 85305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I painted an alphabet over the crib and we used a mobile until LO could reach up and pull on the animals. We took that down, not a moment too soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85300 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:52:02 +0000 mrs. wagon 85300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a fisher price mobile (which RJ LOVED, can't wait to use it again for the next baby!) that attached to the side of the crib. When we sleep trained at 4 months, we took it away. We also have the video monitor camera mounted high on the wall above his crib. I don't worry too much about that because I think if it fell, the fall would be broken by the top of the back wall of the crib. It might bonk him though. </p> <p>Other than that, we have nothing hanging on the walls around his crib. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85298 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:51:16 +0000 Mrsbells 85298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes we originallly wanted wooden letters on the wall but decided to go with a decal instead. we will be having a fisherprice crib mobile but I'm not to worried about that, we will make sure it is fastened securely </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85296 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:46:10 +0000 chopsuey 85296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I would be. I think this is why lots of people choose to use decals! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85294 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:45:37 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 85294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was, which is why we went for the wall decal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85292 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:44:37 +0000 heffalump 85292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a decal there so we don't have to worry about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85289 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:43:21 +0000 Sha 85289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was kind of paranoid about this. we live in earthquake country and LO is super super active, so i just never felt comfortable about hanging things above his crib. it would be probably be fine, but i just never did it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nervous-about-having-things-above-the-crib#post-85269 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:33:28 +0000 polkadots 85269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>are you nervous about mobiles, pictures, etc to be hanging above the crib? </p>
