Ds1 has just run out the front door without me even realising. I was feeding DS2 at the time. Luckily my dad had come to collect him at the same time. If he hadn't I have no idea what would happen.
He also keeps climbing on the side of the bath, on the window ledge, puts everything in his mouth gets himself stuck in awkward places. Obviously I need to lock the door but I worry that if there were a fire or something (unlikely I know) and he had to get out he would be stuck.
I used to be able to watch DS1 much more closely before DS2 but I have to feed DS2 for a big portion of the day so its not possible to supervise him to the same level. I do check on him every so often to see what he's doing but he's often done something in that time; pooed somewhere, eaten something- yesterday he ripped down the wall stickers in his room and started eating them.
I dont want to keep DS1 restricted to the room that I'm in because he will get bored and miserable but I also have to keep him safe.
I feel like I should stop breast feeding because then I would be able to supervise him more but that's not fair on Ds2.
