Standing up

And..... I have something new to worry about. No longer am I afraid of hurting my infant. Now I am afraid of my infant hurting himself. There are so many mixed reports on bumpers or no bumpers. So now I am weighing the consequences between suffocation or knocking himself out. He now likes to stand up on his own, but he also likes to let go.

The letting go part usually ends with a solid head thump from some portion of his crib. This mobile stage is really starting to stress me out. I am not accustomed to seeing bruises on my pretty baby's skin. Although I never thought I would be "that" mom who wouldn't want her son to play football because I didn't want him to get hurt, I just might be! Well actually I am just praying that he will be the biggest so I wont have to worry! At 21 pounds at 7 months, so far so good.
Either Andrew is showing me his Basketball form or informing me how someday he is going to go up and over the side of the crib. I am hoping its not the latter.
