Baby Bedding - Checklist For Necessities
6. Baby Bedding - Checklist for necessities
When you are preparing to outfit a room for a new baby, you will probably have already decided on things like the color and general theme of the room, but perhaps you haven't yet determined what specific baby bedding you will need for the nursery. You can always think of things that would be fun to place in the new room, but perhaps the most important decision you will make is the sleeping arrangements for your child. Once you have selected the theme of the room and the style of furniture that you plan to acquire, the next decision will be the baby bedding. Here are some ideas about this important subject.
Mattress
The first item of baby bedding is the mattress or sleeping pad that you choose for your baby. Most cribs, cradles and other such equipment come equipped with a mattress pad. You can generally select either a traditional mattress that often has polyester foam with a washable cover of some sort, or an organic mattress which may be composed of cotton fiber rather than man made materials. Typically, an organic mattress will not contain chemical sprays or coatings. In either case, the mattress should be firm enough to support the baby and should fit the size of the crib or cradle correctly.
Sheets and blankets
The next item of baby bedding to consider is that of sheets and blankets for your infant. A fitted sheet that is the correct size for the mattress is important. Again, you can choose between many types of materials that are organic or manmade according to your personal preference. In many instances, parents today are choosing hypoallergenic baby bedding in order to reduce the chance of irritants and allergens which can create rashes and breathing problems, respectively, in the infant. Whether you prefer silk or cotton, pastels or primary colors, you can find a plethora of choices in keeping with the theme you have selected for the baby's room.
Bumper
Somehow, the added touch of a crib bumper appeals to many parents, with the idea that it will protect the head of the infant from the wood of the crib or cradle. However, child safety experts are increasingly recommending against the use of a bumper because of safety reasons. If you choose to install a crib bumper, in keeping with the theme of the room, be sure to select one that is not loose or fluffy, but plain with no tassels or ruffles. You can still use colors to match the balance of the baby bedding decor.
Pillow
As an item of baby bedding, a pillow is NOT recommended. In addition to possible allergens and irritants in the pillow, the danger of suffocation is too great. No baby bedding items need be in the crib except the mattress and fitted sheet. No stuffed animals, no pillows or other such items. If you want a pillow or comforter for decorative reasons, you should remove them prior to placing the child down to sleep.

Cradle Cap: Don’t Fret, Its Innocuous
Cradle cap is a skin condition that arises due to the inadequate functioning of an infant’s sebaceous glands. It occurs mainly atop the skull of the baby in scaly, greasy, crusty oily patches. Cradle cap can also be witnessed over the eyebrows and portions behind the ear of the baby. The effect of this skin condition will be much where the concentration of sebaceous glands will be more. The care related to baby’s hygiene must be met with guided measures. It is also known as Infantile Seborrheic Dermatitis.
The cradle cap may appear to you as irritating for your baby but the facts suggest that it is a harmless skin condition. The baby would not be at discomfort but needs soft and gentle treatment along with removal of the scaly accumulation. This condition is like seborrhoea in infants. The scales are only due to the excessive secretion of sebum from the sebaceous glands. When your infant develops cradle cap, look out for the removal of the scales with using mild baby products.
The cradle cap requires gentle application of baby oil on the affected areas of the head. Mineral oil or vegetable oil can also be used for this purpose. Application of oil will help in loosening the scales after the baby’s head fully soak the oil. The child’s head must be washed with the use of lukewarm water and mild baby shampoo. The shampooing will help in removal of loose scales. Mop the baby’s head with soft cotton swabs and let it dry.
The dry scales can then be brushed out and removed, using a brush made up of soft bristles. During the cradle cap, care must be taken that the accumulation or skin does not thickens over the head of the baby. Follow the remedies under the guidance of an expert medical supervisor.
