Cot bumper alternative

[Whycantithinkofaname]

Does anyone know if there is such thing as a safe cot bumper/protector? My baby is 10 months and constantly banging her head of the rails of her cot. Obviously due to the horror stories and the fact my mum found me tangled in mine as a baby I wouldn't buy a regular tie on bumper but wanted to know if there was a safe alternative.

They do it in most baby shops. Just make sure you get the right one. They do both 2 and 4 sides depending on if your cot has solider ends.

Thank you I was sure I had one of these for DD1 but thought I was imagining it as couldn't find anything like it online and couldn't remember what it was called. If anything at least it will stop her flinging her dummy a down the side and me up at 3am climbing under the cot to find it.

She's always bumping her head on the floor and off the TV unit (has learnt to remove all the cushions I've barricaded it with) and tonight she hit her face off the cot pretty hard so have to do something before she ends up covered in bruises.

Worked well for my son. If cot had solid ends I also cut up a pool noodle and put under sheet at either end. Meant he couldn’t get right up to the top or bottom to bang his head.

We use to put 4/5 dummies in the cot so he could always find one .

Hope it works!

That's a brilliant idea! I might try that to stop her kicking the bottom of the cot as the noise rattles right through to he house. Yes I've tried multiple Dummies in the cot but she's so wriggly that somehow they all end up down the side, I sometimes sleep with a couple under my pillow. Thanks for the tips I will try and hopefully no more bumped head!

We had these - expensive but did the job www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00HX01VGW/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_a_it?ref=plSrch&keywords=bumpsters&dpPl=1&dpID=51LlNX-XOWL&tag=mumsnetforum-21&ie=UTF8&qid=1521130382&sr=8-1

I like them they're a lot more attractive than the mesh bumper. I see there's ten in a pack so five each side. Her cot bed is quite small compared to normals cots so if I could get away with that then they'd be ideal.
