    hugs hun.
    If you find an answer I would love to know, my DS2 climbs everything including me.
    I often find him on the kitchen table, we make sure all the chairs are pushed in and he just moves them so he can climb.
    If i am holding him he likes to try and climb up my shoulders so he can sit on my head.

    I have no idea what to do, all i can say is he has definetly given me some grey hairs and a few heart palpatations. We take him down and tell him no and he just keeps doing it. He has had a couple of falls and next minute he is doing the same thing again.
    I just can't leave him for a second

    OMG DD1 has fallen backwards off the arm of the couch aswell and 2 sec later is back on there.

    I like to think i am very diligent with her and am always keeping an eye on her but with DD2 i have to sit down and feed and she just totters off to do her own thing.
    I also push the chairs in and although quite heavy she seems to be able to move them (odd as she is so so small).

    Seems we would all love the answer, we tell her no and take her down, i have even said no and given her a tap on the hand, she throws a tantrum and goes straight back to doing it.

    We also have a spare bed that has 2 mattresses on it and 1 is a pillow top, i found her ON this bed yesterday she had managed to get he foot b/w the mattresses and climb it and was JUMPING on it... how do they figure these things out?

    She's 16mths for gods sake!

    BhoysGirl - i do admire her spirit, it's what i :heart: most about her, i swear she thinks she's a 4yr old boy!
    Oh the playgrounds, don't you worry she has mastered the art of those, FREAK of a child, she goes down slides by herself, climbs ladders... OMG she will put me into an early grave i'm sure of it!
