Tired mamma - cot safety

2 replies

JK201 · 06/01/2020 01:35

We are in the middle of some very gentle sleep coaching. Tonight my 19 month old toddler stood up as usual upon night waking then started to self settle and fall asleep standing up hanging his head over the cot while on his feet.

I'm now terrified he will accidentally choke himself over the edge of the cot if he falls asleep like this again. Or he will slip in his bag and lose his footing and strangle himself on the edge.

Am I being totally unreasonably paranoid.

Help

Is there a way you can physically gently guide him down to the mattress as he starts driftig off?
