Baby’s Health is Dependent on the Baby Bedding

Your new bundle of joy is very precious and you cannot just afford to put your baby’s health in jeopardy by settling for a poor quality baby bedding. Consider the following facts while selecting your baby bedding so as to give your baby a comfortable bedding.

• Always take into account the size of your crib while buying and never do the mistake of buying an oversized crib with an intention to support your baby as it grows. Any oversized crib will make the baby feel lonely and may not feel comfortable while resting inside the crib. Further, your baby will also wake up quite often in an oversized crib and may not have a peaceful sleep during night.

• If you have to settle for an oversized crib for reasons beyond your control, then you need not worry, as you can play some soothing music when you lay your baby in the crib. The soothing music will pacify the baby and hasten the sleeping cycle fast. Do not place pillows on sides so as to make the crib smaller or to avoid your baby from moving on sides, as this may pose a risk of suffocation to your baby. There are also instances of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) when you use pillows in crib, hence never do that mistake.

• As far as possible try to use bright colors, preferably primary colors. You also need not bother to use colors based on the gender, as babies of both genders prefer all colors. A good bright color combination will attract babies and it will help you to keep them engaged during the wakeful states and whenever you not able to stay around your baby.

• Your baby’s skin is very tender and hence it is better you choose only organic materials for your baby bedding. There is a possibility of your baby suffering from SIDS in case you use synthetic baby bedding or clothing and you should also learn to avoid long blankets or comforters, as there is a risk of such items entangling over your baby’s face and suffocate.

• While selecting colors and patterns, you can always go for exotic patterns. Though your baby cannot appreciate them, the exotic colors and patterns can keep your baby engaged for more time and you can attend to other household chores peacefully. Many parents go for some interesting cartoon characters also, as this will help the baby enjoy companionship and fun.
