In the corner and on his head
Sam has been inching/scooting his way into the corner of his crib for a couple of weeks now. The problem is that when he gets there he doesn't understand that there is nowhere else to go. He keeps pushing and pushing with his little legs, cramming his head into the corner. As you can imagine this is not something he enjoys and he screams while doing it. I can go in and turn him onto his back and move him to the other end of his crib and 5 minutes later he will be right back where he was.
This has been an "annoying" problem, in that he is upset and I have to keep going in and moving him back down, but today it became a HUGE problem. Why? Because now when he is in the corner and moving his little legs he is getting his feet under him and standing in an upside down V on his head in the corner. Oh dear! So, not only is this even more upsetting to him, but I wouldn't put it past him to push hard enough to somehow flip out of his crib. This isn't really a danger - it would be an amazing feat, but we are lowering the crib anyway just to be safe. He is so strong, you just can't be too safe.
