We have 14m DD in a bed already with a rail - she can climb out. She hated the crib so we took the front off. It has only been about a week but so far it has been fine. Not sure what else you can do - seems safer than her getting out of the crib!

Ugh. I remember now that DS did this at around 2 and then didn't try again for like a year so I'm praying she follows in his footsteps. Unfortunately they are like night and day so i think I'm going to have to start preparing myself for the worst. This is just going to be so hard because my kids share a room. I can just see her climbing on his bed and causing havoc!

When this happened to my friend, her husband took the brackets off and was able to attach them lower than the lowest setting and it bought her some extra time.

What about a crib tent like this? They sell them at BBB and BRU.

Luckily she didn't try again yet. She was teething badly when she did it so I'm hoping the jump was due to temporary insanity from the pain!Chat Icon I thought about the tent but I've read some things that says they aren't safe. Oh well, for now I'll keep her in her crib until she starts doing it again.

We bought another 2 months by using sleep sacks then she figured out how to propel herself over without using her legs. So we turned it into a daybed.

Now she is focused on gate climbing.
