Somebody please solve this problem
How do you cover every single square inch of chewable crib side? I went in this morning and noticed a half-dollar sized chunk chewed out of the tall side of the crib. The front rail is covered with a fabric rail guard that works well (although one morning I found the velcro that secures it pulled apart and a new chew spot under it.) He has only superficially chewed on the back rail. But the ends? Is he just roaming around the crib looking for the newest place to chew? Argh. I am starting to wonder why crib manufacturers think it's a good idea to make cribs out of soft wood. I know it makes it cheaper and I should've thought of that when we got this crib, but shouldn't they all be made out of hard, teeth-proof wood? Like those HABA teethers you can buy at the Learning Tree.

I wish I could help, but Gisele never chewed on her crib. I kept expecting her to, but it never happened!
You saw the crib we had with Theo. You used it for a while...
Theo's crib was either made of a harder wood or he was a superficial chewer. That crib was easy to sand and reseal. Spencer has gouged serious dents (at least 3) in his. I guess we'll just sand his the best we can and seal them up.
or spend some time custom sewing covers for the whole crib?
right now, kitchen towels tied over the popular chew spots seem to be working...at least until he finds a new spot
