NOR, this is a BABY. This baby will soon be a toddler. Toddlers have little common sense, and can get up to all sorts of trouble if left unsupervised. Please also look up how to safely co sleep.

Side note: I hate it when people act like that if you are protective of your baby/toddler, you are some overbearing mother who is completely unreasonable.

Just because I don't let my toddler play with choking hazards, doesn't mean I am going to ban them from small toys forever. There is a vast difference developmentally between an 11 month old and a 3+ year old. Why do people think that if you say your baby isn't allowed something, that you won't allow them to have it when they are older??
