The bites are small, theres just .... more than I thought there were when I said I would give it to this pregnant lady 

 

lol I assumed you were trying to sell it or something. 

Next time you see her, say, "hey I took another look at the crib and I realized there are more teethmarks than I thought. Do you still want it?"

Not sell it. I was giving it away. The miniature was literally only in it when I needed to take a shower or something and most of the time I brought his little rocking swing into the bathroom with me. The mattress is still in plastic 

 

But I guess he was in it long enough to practice being a beaver. If I can fix it, Id like to.

If you have deep gouges...

You want to go with a stainable wood filler:

Fill the spot and find a couple of stains, one that is lighter and one that is darker, with the same basic tone (reddish, brownish, tanish).  Apply the lighter first and then fade in the darker stain to get it closer to the right color match.

Sanding it down was my initial thought, but I don't know jack shit about this kind of stuff, so...

Neither do I. I suppose if I was on quarantine from job I would probably be finding this shit out with YouTube videos

Yeah, sanding down is a bad idea.  As long as you get the colors relatively close, you can blend spots.  Also, be sure to put a urethane coat on top to seal it.

I didn't see any one mention this yet. Sometimes on real wood, not fake wood, you can take a wet washcloth and put it over the dent, use a clothes iron and run it over it. The steam in some cases can bring the dents right back out. The urethane might still need to be reapplied.

I just googled that answer this morning at work. I also just decided to buy another crib and mattress and call it a day. 

Thanks for the all advice though
