My bedroom is an attic room on its own on the third story, and I'm always worried as if there was a house fire and the stairway was blocked my only escape would be the window. However the window is one that you can only pull open a tiny amount at the very top, so there is no way to get out of it. And it's double glazed, which as far as I'm aware is impossible to break? I know I'd probably die if I jumped out the third story anyway, but I'm thinking more of my baby, if I wrapped him in a matress and then held him to my front and jumped out backwards he might have a chance.
I know this is only a hypothetical, and a perfect example of me being a neurotic mum, but I always just wonder what the best thing I could do in that unlikely event presuming the fire services had already been called?
