I just wanted to share a suggestion. My husband and I stumbled on a great idea last night. We have MJ's crib elevated a lot and she would always roll down. We bought a sleep positioner (cheap) but she would still slide down with it we can't afford the slings or wedges right now. We tried the towel idea - but somehow our little active baby would slide right on past. So my husband cut down an old shower rod and we wrapped it in a blanket and stuck it between the slats of her crib right under the sleep positioner for her butt to rest against. I don't know how well I'm describing this but it worked wonders - it and MJ :D :D were still in a safe position in the morning - hope it helps someone! (Isn't it amazing how inventive we must get through all of this?)

Glad it worked, but I have to admit I'm a little lost about what you actually did. :oops:

That sounds like a great idea. Hopefully someone else will be able to use it too, so thanks for sharing. All you need now is a patent.
