Cot bumper for cot bed...

[tots hope]

Could a couple of you please measure your cot bumpers for me please? I am trying to make one but im not sure what size to make it!

Just length and height could be great - thank you x x

I've never used cot bumpers - it's said that they can contribute to SIDS so I've never taken that chance.

Can I use a cot bumper for my baby?

In the past, there had been concerns that bumpers may make babies too hot, increasing the risk of cot death.

However, recent research has shown that they have neither adverse nor beneficial effects.

Consequently, FSID and the Department of Health neither promote nor discourage the use of bumpers.

Just to clarify.
