    Quick one.
    We painted our 7 nth old babies room yesterday . The room was left with windows open all day and aside from a one or two dabs of paint this morning (about 7am) we haven't painted in 24 hours.
    We put her down tonight in her new room and there is still a smell of paint.
    It's not a really strong smell just a light smell. We used crown breatheasy.
    Should we move her out or leave her there all night

    NO harm to let the baby sleep in his/her cot in your room for a night or 2.

    It will also stop you and your wife needlessly worrying and stressing over the matter.;):)

    +1. The fact that you are worried about it would suggest giving it a couple of days till its fully dry. Babies are more sensitive to their enviroment at a young age.
