should i keep my drop side crib?
my grand mother gifted me a drop side crib for my first baby. she had bought it way before my marrige even :)) funny isnt it. i live in pakistan n here still cribs are not available without drop sides.. or may be i have to get it made from a carpenter. but i dont know how to make the mattress level go up n down. and i wonder if carpenter would be able to make it or not, besides getting a new one would hurt my grand ma. i just wanna do some thing with my crib so sides dont drop. though its very sturdy made of organic wood. and the drop side doesnt even come out, the way ive seen for ones available abraod and the ones banned. it really is in built and moves in a grove that never lets the side ever. u only have to break the side to get it done. only it has bolts on top. if i open them the side drops.( the bolts seem to be a hazard to me yet) its just that i dont feel comforatable with it . what should i do? can i do any thing with the crib so that the side doesnt drop, or should i buy

Some folks might say buy a new crib, but I think that's not necessary. I say grab a drill and some bolts and turn that drop sided crib into a fixed sided crib. You or your handyman of choice should look at the crib, take some measurements, then go to the hardware store and get what you need to fix that sucker in place.posted 08/08/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
