The Big Bed Theory: Given a bed of infinite length and width, a baby cannot crawl off the edge.

However, a pet rat would still try. And try and try and try.

(The pet rats can be very trying that way.)

How would the baby probably act in that set of initial conditions?

Hee!

And to add to that one, given a bed of infinite length and width, the baby (or cats) will still push you off the edge :-)

That certainly is an interesting theory. My personal experience, however, says that the "bed" in question would have to have another common moniker, "floor". That is, a blanket laid on the "floor" creates a "bed" of sufficient size that a baby cannot crawl off. Any smaller creation, e.g. "king-size bed" is of insufficient size to prevent, or even to discourage, a sufficiently determined baby from crawling off.
