Would you leave baby asleep in car ?

[engalaaand]

Whilst you took older child to nursery (takes 3 minutes) ? Car is right outside and locked..

Personally, I'd leave a sleeping baby in an unlocked car in nursery car park to drop an older child at the door. I might even leave a car door open. I probably wouldn't leave a sleeping baby anywhere where I felt, for security, that the car had to be locked too.

I wouldn’t but the other week I stopped my husband from doing just this so we disagree. I won though!

No in that situation I wouldn’t. On my own driveway or in a nursery car park where I could see the car at all times then yes.

Absolutely no chance. Cars by me have been stolen or carjacked in less time than that with babies inside.

Yes. I did. And awake but not crying.

It's the risk of fire that would do it for me I think as I've known this to happen in real life - weirdly, also know of a case where car was stolen with two children inside.

What age is baby? If less than a year but especially 6 months they're meant to be in the same room as an adult when sleeping to reduce risk of cot death.

Get a grip! 🤦🏻‍♀️

If you were alone in the house with the baby, and collapsed, had a heart attack, anything. You wouldn't even get an ambulance, would you? And the poor baby would just be left fending for themselves. Maybe you need someone else with you at all times just in case of emergency!

@DuesToTheDirt i hear what you're saying. But in that case you'd have the baby with you in the same house surely?In a shop no one would know if you drove or which car was yours.

Yes, but it could be hours, or even days before anyone thought to check on the missing mum. At least if it's in a public place, the baby may be spotted quicker, or they get medical help quicker, so mum is capable of alerting others to where her baby is

The baby is spotted quicker? After everyone is talking about blacked out windows.

If I was leaving my nursery child at the door and could see my car yes I would.
However, I wouldn’t do it with my grandchildren as I feel even more responsible for their safety if you see what I mean..
