Re: Tips on Baby proofing the house
At 9 months, your running around is “just” starting
why don’t you get him an exersaucer or put him in a playpen with his toys when you’re busy
Re: Tips on Baby proofing the house
i tried , but he hates being confined and cries non stop .. not interested in toys .. wants to explore bigger things , takes him a moment to explore his toy and then lets go of it .. loves walking around the house freely .. so i want to baby proof the house now ..

Get baby gates for your stairs, put all breakable things up high and beyond his reach, cover electrical outlets and hide or tie up wires. Get those corner protector things for your tables so he doesn’t run into them, and be prepared to still run after him as he discovers new things. Welcome to parenthood! Ain’t it grand?

we had this for our TV table in family room because that’s where he spent most of his time and when he started walking, he used to hold on to the table so it needed to be protected at all sides.. Toddler Table Edge Shield by OFNA - buybuyBaby.com
we had something similar for kitchen cabients because again, he used to crawl and walk holding the kitchen cabinets.. I did leave one cabinet with a few pots and pans and wooden spoons for him to play with though.

Other than that electrical covers, baby gates if there are stairs or restricted area tat you dont have him access is what you need. We used baby gates but at 9 months, he was climbing it so we just started to keep him away from the area and it worked.
Re: Tips on Baby proofing the house
Thanks guys , how old is a baby usually before they start recognizing what areas are No Go zones? and how do you teach them not to go to the No Go zones?
The day it starts to move around on the ground. Whatever that age is for ure kid.
Sayin a loud no is a start… And for the Dheet lot…a slap on the hand.
Midget was ok with a verbal no…genie got taps on the hand followed by a stern NO.

You can make your own table edge guard with water noodles…at a fraction of the cost…
you take these and cut a slit along one side…slip that over the edge of your table and voila you have a guard…
Re: Tips on Baby proofing the house
We are in an apartment, I keep all the bedroom and bathroom doors closed all the time. The only area he can play in our living room and kitchen. B/w9-11 months I would gate half of the kitchen as well, there were only 2 cabinets open for him, one has his stacking cups and milk bottles, the other had some pot pans and some wooden/plastic cooking utensils. All the electric outlets were covered. We don’t have any decorations where he can reach. We have 3-4 different kinds of pushing toys for him, along with other toys that are in bins. 2-3 small stools/ chawkees for him to carry and sit. If there was something that he can not touch like a pedestal fan, I was/am very firm with him if he tries to touch. He now understands that he can only open other kitchen cabinets. Again, I was/am very firm at what cabinets he can open. You can put safety looks on the cabinet. We are in an apartment and were not allowed to drill holes on the cabinet so we had to just train him.

If the child is walking naturally then why would you stop them? Are you putting your baby in the walker to walk?
