Hellobee Boards

When she was a baby we kept her door open a crack, but we had to start shutting it because 1. the dog would just burst in there and wake her up in the morning and 2. She's a light sleeper and we have a small house so she can hear everything going on.

We have things on our windows so they can only open up so far.... not far enough for a person to get inside.

I don't latch DS's doors, but it isn't opened. We close DD's door because she is in a regular bed and I don't want her able to get out of her room and attempt the stairs in the middle of the night.

Our door is always closed, but we have a first floor master (I don't really like it!)

His door used to be kept open a crack until a few months ago when he started waking up when he heard us come up the stairs - now we close it. Our bedroom door is always kept open a crack so the cats can come and go on their own.

We installed a nice swing baby gate so that the door itself can remain open, but the room can be closed off. It was actually at the recommendation of our vet to help or dogs adjust to LO (she wanted us to install an actual screen door but we are renting and couldn't plus or dogs are small and can't jump the gate)....this way everyone is able to see in at baby and know what is going on, so they can feel included without being right there...I also like it so I can always see in myself.

Closed. The nursery is really close to the kitchen, so we just got in the habit of closing it. Plus, DH is loud in the morning as he's getting ready for work. If the weather is extreme (really or or really cold) we will crack it on our way to bed.

We keep it open.

I woke up and looked at the monitor in the middle of the night and there was a cat staring back at me in the crib.. She was sleeping next to DS. It was sweet and all but needless to say we now keep the door closed.

@oahujeni: whattttt?!?!? Hahahaha I hope you took a picture !

@oahujeni: haha, that is crazy the cat got on there

We have a small house and even though the white noise machine drowns out a lot, we get paranoid. So whatever room he's sleeping in (currently ours), the bedroom door is closed.

Winter we keep it.open for the heat to get in there. Summer qw will prpb close it to keep it cool with the ac on.

When LO was a newborn we kept his door opened and our door opened as well. His room is right across from ours. Once he was older we cracked his door open (maybe around 6 months old). As a toddler his door remains closed but he can open it and come into our room in the mornings.

We keep it closed til we go to bed. Then I leave ours and his cracked open!

we open his and our doors wide right before we go to bed. the only reason though, is that the only thermostat in our apt is in our room, so while our room will get nice and warm from our body heat, his room will stay cold since the heater won't kick in properly. we don't leave any windows open at night! too cool and damp where we live i'm not too worried about noise because his room is on the other side of our (small) apt.

Closed at night, during the day for naps mostly open. This it to keep the cat out while we sleep cause I found her in the crib and about had a heart attack. But I get what you are saying about the windows being open. We use to have our windows open all the time when weather permitted ( we are in FL). But when LO got here the end of Dec, we stopped sleeping with the windows open. I know our area is safe and all but it doesn't feel right to me. So when she was a newborn we had the heat on just to keep the house comfy for her and now we have the air on all the time. If its a nice morning I will open the slider and let some fresh air in while we are up.

I have to close it or the dog will go and "check" on her!

Closed until first wakeup, then open.
