How old/ heavy/ long in an Amby? Or how to get DD2 out?

After a horrible week, 9.5mth, 24lb DD2 is back in the Amby Hammock. How long can this go on? Do I need a succession of bigger hammocks forever? Any experiences? Was thinking perhaps I could wean her off it by removing the spring entirely...

is there a massive rush to 'wean her off it?'

I thought the spring was good for up to 40lbs

The standard spring is rated to 29lb but a heavy duty spring rated to 40lb is available with age guide listing upto 12m.

AccidentalMum i am guessing she has no interest in climbing out of it?

There is always this?

AccidentalMum · 12/08/2008 21:46

God no, she loves it, no wanting to climb out.

3 months does seem like a rush!

One suggestion on a site was to have it insode the cot on the off chance child made it's way out of the amby?

In that case i would check the weight rating of your spring, change it if needed and go with it, she could well go from Amby to hammock and avoid cot and bed all together.
this looks nice

Wow! She could be in a hammock for ever!She sleeps through in the Amby but is up every two hours on a flat surface, grrr.

didnt realise that about the spring.
I would get her the uprated spring if I were you and carry on as you are. there is no sense in having broken sleep if there is no need

AccidentalMum go with it if she and you all sleep better then there is nothing to add
