High
quality baby crib mattresses are important
There
are as many shapes and sizes of baby crib mattresses as there
are different cribs for them to go in. It is of paramount
importance for the safety of children that baby crib
mattresses fit perfectly in the crib.
Safety
Tips:
Here are a few tips that you should observe when shopping for
baby crib mattresses. Ensure that the outside dimensions of
mattresses and the inside dimensions of cribs are almost
exactly the same. If there is a gap between the edge of the
mattress and the sidebars, headboard or footboard of the crib
the child could become wedged in the gap and suffocate. It is
most important that they be firm. Investigators have suggested
that too soft baby crib mattresses may have been a
contributing factor to some child suffocations and incidents
of SIDS.
There
are two types of baby crib mattresses, quilted with coil
springs and foam. Generally speaking, foam is lighter making
changing the crib bedding easier and coil lasts longer,
although with normal use foam should easily last the time
period required by one child.
A
newborn baby spends about three-quarter of his or her few
months of life in its crib, reducing to about half until it is
old enough to move to a bed. During this time the child will
more than double in height and weight. Give your infant the
comfort and safety he or she deserves when you select from
among the various baby crib mattresses.
