If you are starting to think it might be a good idea, do it. It is better to lower it a little to be safe then to take any kind of chance... my experience: third kid is on the way...

I think we lowered the mattress when our son was able to reach up and grab the bumper - we anticipated that he would be pulling up - sometime before he pulled up on the sides. My second son is 4 months and hasn't rolled over yet, so we haven't lowered it yet. If you have to ask yourself twice, that usually means just do it! You'll feel better. What's it going to hurt? It's better to lower it too early than too late.

I have a very early crawler/stander (6 months), and we've lowered it to the lowest level and there are no worries about him getting out, and there's plenty of room for him still to grow taller without that risk. i would actually look at the shorter height as a benefit, because when we lay him down if he's sleeping its less of a "drop into the crib for him, in other words you're not reaching way down in the crib to put your baby down or pick them up. hope this helps!

I'm wondering about this as well...seems like it would have this issue. I just got one but am concerned about using it until my 4 month old can roll in all directions and right himself if need be.

When the mattress arrived, it was rolled up. Since then, we placed on a bed. So while we have not tried, if it was originally rolled up, it may be possible to do so again but definitely not easy.

The mattress is set rather low into the crib....it could be problematic for a shorter person....unless a thick mattress is used in the crib.&#128522;

We made the transition at around 4 months old. We bought a crib wedge ($13 - walmart), and she was on the other side of the crib the next morning. Created a "sling" out of a rolled up towell safety pinned to the wedge. Guess it somewhat mimicked the coziness and incline of the RnP because she snuggled up against the towel and slept better. She still preferred the RnP but by 6m old she was sleeping flat in her crib no problem. Gradual steps... less and less incline, more and more freedom.

You can set the mattress on the high level for a younger baby and set it lower for a toddler. I just LOVE this crib for my grandchildren!!!

We put a few layers of cotton cloth over the mattress and that seemed to do the trick. We were told that the mattress needs to be quite firm for a new born and so did not venture into making the surface too soft.

I've had it for about two years now. I'm 5'10" and just under 200lbs, and I haven't noticed any sagging or comfort issues. I tend to sleep in the same position most nights, so a tiny 'roll' about where my lumbar curve sits every night started to form a while ago. I started making sure to turn the mattress every couple of times I change the sheets, and it has since subsided. (By turn, I don't mean upside-down like a regular mattress. I mean head-to-foot turn)

I think it is only noted as '3 months' or when they can roll over and pull themselves up. My daughter was teeny, so she used it until about 5/6 months. Though after 4 months I kept the bassinet on the floor and used it mostly for naps~

Way better than innerspring mattress! I used to literally start rolling out behind my husband when he got off our previous mattress. He also tosses and turns a lot and I seldom notice that now.

I've used this mattress with my two year old since she was 6 mos and am using a second one with my three month old. So far, I've not had that problem. The mattress is flat.

My newborn rolls from side to side in it. But if your baby is big enough to roll over its not high enough. I fixed mine on top of my dresser and it works great for me so far . I don't know how it's gonna be when LO grows up . Hope my answer helped

Only cheap twins will roll under with bedding. We have sertas, that are a little taller so we raided the upper bed 3 inches to clear w bedding on mattress.

I had it for almost a year now, and my wife and I both noticed recently that there's sagging toward the middle of the mattress so there's now this slight slope down from the lateral edges to the center. We don't always sleep in the middle either, but I guess that's where the weight would usually go.

The top of my mattress sits at approx 28" from the floor at newborn height which is where mine is being that I have a one month old. From there the next adjustment goes down approx 4 1/2" from there and the last height adjustment goes down another 7" from there for the toddler bed.

I'd suggest putting something under their mattress instead, if anything, try to create an incline. Mine just rolled to the other end of the bed, away from the wedge.
