Apparently that didn't work so she made another sign, once again asking that the doorbell not be used but also pointed out the thumb tack that had been secured to the doorbell. She said she never had an issue after that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-710131 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 22:47:51 +0000 tysonja 710131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we don't have a doorbell... they have to knock. but noone comes to our door! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-710068 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 22:08:01 +0000 HLK208 710068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ignore!! I never answer the door unless I'm expecting someone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-710060 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 22:04:19 +0000 Weagle 710060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would cry a little bit, and then depending on where we're at in the routine I may just delay the nap a bit and go to the door. But, our doorbell is out of commission, the delivery folks just leave packages, and everyone that I would want to talk to knows to knock. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-710045 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:56:14 +0000 MsMini 710045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually just put them down really quick and run to the door. The poor delivery guys are just doing their job, and not trying to ruin anyones lives or anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-710018 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:46:49 +0000 stlginkgo 710018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get extremely pissed (bc doorbell ringing = crazy-pants dog) then I think in my head, "why haven't I made the sign: sleeping baby, ring doorbell at own risk?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-710002 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:42:41 +0000 Cchoi4 710002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>our current doorbell is really soft so i have to try hard to listen for it...luckily/unluckily the FEDex/UPS guy bangs on the door if i don't answer after the first ring. If i'm in the middle of putting LO to nap, I pray he doesn't wake up from the sound. If he just got in his crib, i run down, grab the package and then back to LO's room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709987 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:37:43 +0000 reyorra 709987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have a doorbell! But I would ignore the knocking if they only knock once. A repeated knocking might warrant bringing a screaming baby with me to the door! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709950 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:24:39 +0000 CottonCandy 709950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Get extremely pissed off and ignore! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709949 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:24:03 +0000 pl0508 709949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ignore ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709935 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 21:20:34 +0000 yin 709935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would also ignore. I rarely have to sign for packages, and they usually leave it at the door without ringing the doorbell. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709862 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 20:57:23 +0000 gracecat 709862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ignore unless I am expecting someone for something important. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709784 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 20:34:58 +0000 Bao 709784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably get the door if I was expecting someone, otherwise I would do what I have to do first, and then get the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709766 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 20:28:58 +0000 chopsuey 709766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At our old place you couldn't hear the doorbell from her room.<br /> Our new place doesn't have a door bell! And we rarely have visitors.</p> <p>I would ignore if we had one though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709763 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 20:28:25 +0000 Sweet T 709763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I finish putting LO down and then go to the door. I hate repeat doorbell ringers! Maintenance came this morning and rang the bell 3 times before I could get downstairs to answer the door! Ugh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-putting-down-your-lo-and-the-doorbell-rings#post-709758 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 20:26:46 +0000 mrbee 709758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I ignore the door, usually the doorbell rings over and over again. So I usually get the door and sign for the package while I give the UPS guy the dirtiest look I can muster.</p> <p>What do you do when you're putting down your LO and the doorbell rings? </p>
