When parents plan for a new baby, they often ignore safety concerns with baby bedding. It’s easy to get carried away with cute comforters, so pay attention to ensure your baby’s crib is safe, and still stylish.
Fitted Sheets and receiving blankets that are light in weight are the main things you need when picking baby bedding. You can choose a set that comes with a cute comforter, but chances are you won’t even need it until your child is around 2. When your child is an infant (0-12 months), you should never cover the child in a heavy blanket, because this is a suffocation hazard as well a surefire way for your child to overheat in his or her sleep.
You should monitor the nursery’s temperature to prevent the use of heavy blankets, and you should have the baby wear lightweight one-piece pajamas in the summer and thicker sleep outfits or wearable blankets during the winter.
