I am just at the start of my baby journey (missed m/c @ 9 wks and D&C end of Sept followed by 2nd D&C last week due to some retained tissue). I had read many blogs and forums in my sadness but yours just blew me away and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Now I check in nearly every day for your updates. I have shed many tears for you and Myles and am also so excited and happy for you as you get closer and closer to meeting your twin babies. You are an inspiration, and I just wanted you to know that I am cheering you on from over here in Australia :-)<br />MelindaUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06735292653254871512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4326892427706733269.post-12423122209783761472009-12-03T12:14:36.160-06:002009-12-03T12:14:36.160-06:00I love it!

I bought a mesh type bumper its really flat and breathable but it still keeps their arms and legs from getting stuck in the slats. I got mine from target. The only downfall is they only have 3 colors, white, yellow and blue. But I love mine.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040669478093163255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4326892427706733269.post-17676084905475084972009-12-03T10:18:10.983-06:002009-12-03T10:18:10.983-06:00Oooooooo.

I'm aware of the risks of crib bumpers and don't plan to leave them on when the boys are in the crib. They came with my bedding set, so I thought I'd put them on for decorative purposes for now. You are not the only one who was worried (I got a few emails from friends IRL warning me too). I'm so lucky to have so many people helping me along and watching out for the twins. I really do appreciate advice and guidance. Thank you! orried. :)Nikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18301986722909738137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4326892427706733269.post-58996130453214657872009-12-02T12:54:54.475-06:002009-12-02T12:54:54.475-06:00Love the crib and adorable bedding!

I hope this may work for you but it sounds like there may be some other options as well if it doesn't. <br /><br />Continued peace to you, K and the boys.tootertotzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11958341199715354427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4326892427706733269.post-40857021917304474452009-12-02T12:34:05.458-06:002009-12-02T12:34:05.458-06:00Just an FYI, the American Academy of Pediatrics, S...Just an FYI, the American Academy of Pediatrics, SIDS Alliance, and CPSC advise that bumper pads should not be used because of the risk of suffocation. A study published in the Journal of Pediatrics in 2007 found 27 accidental deaths from suffocation or strangulation were directly attributed to crib bumpers. Young infants don't have the motor skills or strength to get themselves away from the bumpers and you'd be surprised at how much a tiny baby can scoot and move and get wedged into them.suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04308934078733746979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4326892427706733269.post-41903427122510425972009-12-02T09:05:36.887-06:002009-12-02T09:05:36.887-06:00Beautiful crib and bedding.
