Serious Infant Crib Sheets Security Recommendations

August 31st, 2009

While the parents may get excited for preparing their nursery for their baby, many do not think about the safety issues surrounding baby bedding. Infant bedding comes in so many cute styles and colors it is easy to get caught up in the fun, but some of those same items are dangerous; use these tips to provide a comfy and safe place for your new baby.

When it comes to baby bedding, only fitted sheets and light weight receiving blankets are necessary. Until the age of 2, the use of a comforter in baby bedding is unnecessary. Never cover an infant (0-12 months) with a heavy blanket because not only will your child overheat during slumber but it is also a suffocation hazard.

Keep a comfortable room temperature rather than covering the child with a thick blanket, and provide your little one with fitted clothing appropriate to the season.
