Thread: "Breathable" Baby Bumpers - Opinions?

I have one =] I bought a blue one online from Walmart. It's cute and I love it. My baby isn't here yet though. www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do...

I have a beautiful crib set, and ?have no intentions of my LO sleeping in her cribs until she's at the age where the risk of SIDS dramatically decreases. Great that your able to co-sleep and find it a lifestyle that works for you. ?Co-sleeping was never an option for us (although I envy those that can) and the usual bumpers that are sold in stores that aren't breathable pose a significant risk. ? I really don't understand why...

So, I have been scared out of using standard baby bumpers.? However, I do want some kind of "lining" between my baby's head and limbs and the crib bars.? I came across something called "BreathableBaby - Breathable Safer Bumper". http://www.breathablebaby.com/ Has anyone heard of it? and what does everyone think?

i didnt know other bumpers were unsafe lol... but it looks neat so why not

i have one from Ry. i got it at BRU when he started to climb ontop of his other bumper. i liked it...just took me a bit to get it to fit the crib since i have one of the simplicity combo changer ones so it had a solid side.

We used this for DS and it definitely eased our bumper pad fears a lot. DS has always been a flipper, roller and mover when he is sleeping, so we decided not to ever use a regular bumper with him. The only thing about the breathable bumper is it doesn't offer any padding to body parts, so DS did hit his head several times, but once he learned the boudaries of the crib he stopped running into the sides. It did keep his limbs from popping...

we use our regular soft bumper and have had zero problems...

I'm sorry but I don't understand how a piece of NET can be called a "bumper".? It's a net to keep baby from sticking things through the rails...not from rolling into it.

Call me whatever you like, Im not wasting my money on a breathe-able bumper. I have a beautiful crib set, and ?have no intentions of my LO sleeping in her cribs until she's at the age where the risk of SIDS dramatically decreases. I will be co-sleeping, until she's sleeping through the night.
