[quote=Anonymous]I didn't do any of this. We have some area rugs already and we would play with her on those, largely because it was more comfortable for us. But she loved the hardwood. Comically, it was actually hard for her to crawl or walk on it at first because it was slippery -- she'd move her little legs and not go anywhere. Adorable! But really, it was fine. She has had some bad falls in our house but they are actually not that common and she is always fine. Your baby's first huge bump or big shiner due to something like this is like a parental "level up". You can't keep them in a bubble. They heal, they learn. I get baby proofing a little more with subsequent children because you will never be able to supervise a baby as closely as you can your first. But ironically, people tend to baby proof less with second and third kids because by then they realize that babies and toddlers are going to fall and even get hurt sometimes, and it's really not the end of the world.[/quote]
