The most wonderful experience for women in life is having a baby. The real work begins when they baby is born. Feeding bottles, changing diapers, immunization records etc are a few of the important things a new mom has to learn. Apart from these, there is once most important thing which most people forget and that is the kind of bedding that the baby would require. The rule is to find bedding which would give maximum safety to your baby. It is a must that the bedding should be very comfortable for the baby.
To find perfect bedding it might take time but it would be all worth it as your baby would have the best sleep in the bedding. The bedding should not be too hard or too soft. The sudden infant death syndrome was attributed to very soft bedding used for babies. This happens because when the bedding is very soft the baby's nose and mouth gets covered and the air which the baby inhales is the same which is exhaled from his nose. This is a very dangerous thing since the baby would inhale carbon dioxide instead of oxygen and could result in coma or even death.
There are numerous styles and makes in choosing a baby's bed. The most basic selections are: a bassinet, a crib or a cradle. A bassinet is an oblong-shaped basket which is like a bed for babies. A crib has long flanked high side bars which help for the baby's safety so that the baby doesn't roll down from the bed. Cradle is a small low bed which has rockers on its stands. The material used to make the bassinet, crib or cradle can help determine what kind of further safety may be required for the baby.
The baby bedding should fit the bassinet so that the baby's space is enough for rolling from side to side. The crib is usually a square so the mattresses can be fitted to the size of the crib. The cradles come in various sizes and shapes and some moms prefer them so that when the baby is cranky, the baby can be calmed down by rocking the cradle. Cribs are very economical as they can be used for infants till they are two years or a little older.
Also the most suitable material to use for baby bedding is cotton as it is absorbent and cool to baby's skin. These are the conventional things proven to be best for baby's comfort. You can try these or find out what is best for your baby so that he or she would be comfortable.
