Remember when you were a baby, and your mum would shove you out in your pram to sleep in the back garden so you got some fresh air.
What are your thoughts on this, (obviously providing the baby is dressed appropriately)? Do you agree or disagree with it?

I personally couldnt risk something happening. I know lots of people say 'where i live is really safe and stuff like that never happens here'. I think where i live is safe but the first thing people say on the news when something terrible happens is 'stuff like this doesnt happen round here'. I dont even like being in a different room from her!!!!
I love Evie to get plenty of fresh air and even though my garden is secure I would never leave her out there alone, I wouldnt leave her out of my sight.... You cant trust anyone....
I wouldnt object to it as we only have a little house and garden.
Harri is nearly 14 months so cant wait for this summer so i can watch him play in the garden and take him to the paddling pool! x
And as for leaving lo's out in colder weather - well my grandma did that to my mum when she was quite small (and everyone else in the 50's did too) I'm not sure how old exactly -she was born in October and my mum ended up in hospital with pneumonia for weeks. That must have been really horrid for my grandparents as then they were only allowed to visit once a week, and they couldn't get there so the vicar used to go up on his motorbike once a week to see my mum. Can you imagine having to leave your lo in hospital only able to see them once a week..how horrid!
I can't wait for our garden to be finished though and hten we can play outside in the bouncy castle, and the paddloing pool, and the ballpool and the water play table..and ummmm all the other outside toys he got for christmas/birthday
My mil put my oh outside 1 day and when she went to get him in the pram was covered in snow!!!
I used to do this with Emilia. If we had been out for a walk and she was asleep rather than wake her to take off her outdoor clothes I would push her out into the garden until she woke. This was in October and November and she was always well wrapped up.
I was normally in the kitchen so i could keep an eye on her. My garden is quite secluded as well. I don't think it's a bad thing at all.
I believe it does them good. Didn't do us any harm.

I had the patio doors open so I could hear her, though - I wouldn't shut her out!
