I cannot believe my 20 month year old sister just did this?

Question

So we put her in her crib for bed and closed the door halfway.

She satrted crying becuase she didn't want to go to bed I guess, and she got out of her crib and opened the door and ran up to me!

It's just me, my mom and her in the house. My mom and I were watching tv, so there's no way anyone could've taken her out.

So what should we do?

Answer 1

get her a toddler bed so that she doesn't fall climbing out, looks like the terrible twos is around the corner.

Answer 2

Yea, that's pretty normal for that age, she's almost 2 so yea, climbing out of the crib is normal.  You just take her back to bed and pat her in there and repeat if she keeps coming out.

Answer 3

uh oh she's too big for the crib now time for a little bed!You have to teach her she has to stay in bed at bedtime now

Answer 4

My daughter cries sometimes when she doesnt want to sleep but I never close her door that wayshe can hear what is going around in the house.  You should put one of those baby monitoring cameras to see what she did to get out.  It could be unsafe and she might get hurt.

Answer 5

I'm surprised it's taken her that long to climb out of her crib on her own..... just keep putting her back to bed....don't reward her and be firm...she'll get it eventually.

Answer 6

Your little Sister's NOT "so little" anymore. -She's on Her way to growing up to be an "Escape Artist" !  :)  You & your Mother are JUST going to have to teach Her- that GOING to Bed means STAYING in bed, & that's ALL there is to it !!! ...Good Luck with That...-You're GOING to need it!  :)

Answer 7
