Baby Getting Leg Stuck In Cot Rails
Not all kids do.
Baby getting leg stuck in cot rails. The best way to keep your baby from getting their legs stuck in the crib is to make sure the crib is up to standard and use a sleep sack or wearable blanket. The first time she had then fallen over sideways and when I walked in after hearing the strangest cry from her I thought she had broken or dislocated her leg by the way she was contorted in the crib fortunately she didnt do any damage just some bad. Like most baby-related problems that parents have to tackle every baby is different.
And I mean STUCK both times it took at least a minute for me to get her leg out because her knees dont seem to fit without force through the rails. This is especially important as the cot is where your baby will be sleeping and you might not be awake to keep a close eye on your little one at all times of the day. Theres a ordinary cot matress in itno back problems whatsoever.
She was never injured though. At 13 months she will move if it is. I heard my 18 month old screaming bloody murder and find her legs all the way up to her thigh stuck between the railings.
I tried turning her to the side. The only issue with having it is if she can use it to climb out of the crib. We moved Daniel at 14 months he was a very wriggly baby and kept getting his arms and legs stuck in the bars of the cot so we had little choice.
Even in a sleepinggro bag hed manage to get his legs trapped. My little man has been getting his leg stuck in his crib rails--twice now. I called for my son to bring me my phone.
Ive tried putting her back in a sleeping bag and this stopped her for one night but now she can get her legs and a 1 tog. Infant sleeping bags can help reduce the risk of sudden death and also prevent arms and legs from getting trapped in the cot rails. I just had a horrror of them getting their legs stuck and twisted in the wooden bars.
