Tutti Bambini Next to me Crib

I’m gonna be getting no sleep at this rate.. every time i wake up to feed my little girl somehow she has shoved herself right into the side of her cot, and her face is buried into the side! i’m so worried she won’t be able to breathe.. does anyone know if the part that isn’t mesh on the tutti bambini is breathable?😩 what can i do!

Following as we have the exact same next to me and the exact same issue. Put my little boy down in the centre of the next to me and woke up 20 minutes ago with him at the very edge with his nose squished into the side 🙃 anxiety now through the roof

Avatar

it’s so stressful isn’t it! ive just read online someone folded up a blanket and put it underneath the mattress around the edge and it’s created a bit of a tilt to keep baby in middle, so ive done the same on both sides, just so it’s kind of like supporting her in the middle if you get me? obvs the blankets are underneath the mattress so the crib is clear, im going to see how that works!! Xx

I might try the same but shouldn’t have to really! Hopefully it works otherwise I’ll be getting no sleep tonight 😅 xx

Avatar

let me know how it goes 🫶🏼 i know it’s a nightmare, they love to worry us! i didn’t think something like this would be a worry whilst they’re so young 😅Xx

Mine does this too. He also manages to turn himself completely landscape and ends up at the foot of the crib. He won’t sleep in it without a blanket at the bottom for some reason which adds to my stress 🙃🫠

thank you ladies for the advice and reassurance! i’ve raised the edges slightly with a blanket underneath at both sides and she has stayed perfectly in the middle since her last feed, i hope it stays like this cos my anxiety just can’t deal 🤣💖

My little girl kept doing this aswel! I was jumping up In the middle of the night panicked when I opened my eyes and couldn’t see her face in the middle of the cot 🤦🏼‍♀️ I bought cosydream babymoov insert and it’s honestly the most used product I own now! Completely stops her rolling and I can bring her up onto our bed for a snuggle without having to worry shel roll off into us!

Avatar

Yeah my little one does the same thing. This may sound strange but my partner read that babies should sleep with feet pointing north and head pointing south 🤷‍♀️ so we tried it last night and he slept without a sound for 4 hours and also stayed on his back!! 🙏 xx

My girl is the same

We have the same issue, as its strapped to the bed it isn't always level, we always make sure it's leveled out when we put our little boy down which seems to help, also ordered a firmer mattress for it which helped keep him in the middle as the one that came with it seemed abit soft x

is supervised use during the day ok? xxx

Same issue too !

Avatar

Omg going through the same thing with the same bed. I wake up to find his face squashed into the side of the bed and I move him into the middle so many times I just don’t know how he makes his way over right to the edge!

I’ve used it the last 5 weeks at night and my sister used it on her two kids with 0 issues , when you get it Youl see how flat the sides are it would be impossible for something to happen to a baby in it! And if you look up the product it says you can yous it for sleep , hope it helps you!

Avatar

Not sure if you have one but we’ve been placing the Moses basket top inside the next to me until he’s a little bigger it fits perfectly. My son was the same we used to find him at the bottom of the next to me one night and it scared us! X

Avatar

if it were me, I wouldn’t risk it. I’d trust the lullaby trust over other’s anecdotal experiences because the guidelines are there for a reason xx

I know this is an old thread but I'm trying to spread awareness over this product being potentially dangerous. I've made a tiktok about it after seeing lots of people post about it (I had a terrifying incident where my baby was pressed up against the side barely breathing). Tutti Bambini just didn't care! Since posting on Tiktok so many other people have come forward! My advice is to complain to Tutti Bambini because the more people who report this issue, the more something might get done before something bad happens. I hate this crib so much!! It is poorly designed and causes a tilt when the baby moves slightly off centre, I even checked with a spirit level because I thought I was going mad! https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGexnjewN/

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

I think Motherhood has made me more bitter than I realized…

This is such a ramble but I don’t know where else to put it all.

I’m four months in and I don’t really have hobbies right now. I don’t do anything for myself except maybe doomscrolling or listening to a podcast while I breastfeed my baby. I used to craft and have game nights with friends. Activities that usually are at least 2 hour stretches. Now if I have an hour free my mind immediately goes to baby, or doing something in the house for baby.

And I thought I didn’t mind. Like I knew postpartum could be very mentally consuming. But I think it’s altering how I view people around me and it’s prodding at my relationship with my husband.

He spends most of his time making food for us, looking after our dogs, playing with the baby, ect. But he still has time for his hobby. Spends maybe an hour a night on it. Even adapted to using a bot for shopping for his hobby after a certain incident where we had to have a heart to heart after he left me home alone with the baby for hours during a busy workday (I work from home) to shop for his hobby.

And yet there’s like this little green eyed monster in me that rages every time I know he’s running off to start up the bot. Even though I’m the reason he does it this way.

We took a family trip last weekend to see his best friend and their kids and let them meet the baby. He brought the laptop. He’s always brought a laptop on trips and it’s never been a problem to me before. But one night we both woke up while the baby was still asleep, and he wandered out of the room. I tried to fall back asleep but couldn’t. So I went to the kitchen to try having something warm to drink to settle me. And he was there at the table running the bot from his laptop. I flipped out at him. But there really wasn’t reason to. It’s not like I needed help with the baby and he was ignoring me. He wasn’t avoiding our friends. He was just awake and unable to sleep and found something to do with his time. Yet my snap reaction was “why the hell would you do this on a family trip?”

I don’t know what it is. Maybe it’s the less complete sleep from baby’s middle of the night feed? My brain being just consumed by baby? Maybe I’m not as over that shopping incident as I thought? But I’m just so annoyed at his hobby right now. The green eyed monster thinks “you could be using that time differently” but realistically to do what exactly??? Stare at our baby in the dark???

I spent probably an hour apologizing to him after I snapped. And he’s of course hurt and frustrated because I said some very mean things in the moment.

I don’t want to be this jealous, angry person. But I also don’t know how to find time for myself in this right now outside of basic hygiene. It’s like I’ve forgotten how to be myself, even if just for an hour.

Maybe I need a therapist.
