Choosing the right Baby Bedding


When you are pregnant you start planning very early on for your new arrival. In the midst of all the planning and appointments you start to try and figure out your babies bedding. If you chose to know your baby’s sex, you have a direct line to planning for your baby’s room and bedding. If the gender of your baby remains a mystery, it is time to find that perfect generic bedding.

Baby bedding is very important when working on the nursery decor. The bedding will have a large impact on the room and the look so when choosing there are some things to think about first.
  • Make sure the bedding is comfortable. When a baby’s bedding is soft and comfy, he or she will sleep better.
  • Get a good mattress for the crib. Some can be too hard and then there are others too soft. Shop around for the perfect mattress.
  • Choose crib sheets or cradle sheets that are soft and protect the baby’s skin but also choose sheets that are durable because they will be washed a lot! Get several sets of crib sheets and baby blankets because those late night sheet changes get stressful and your already going to be a bit exhausted.
  • Accidents happen, and happen a lot when you have a baby. Make sure that the bedding is machine washable and the bedding accessories as well. No one wants to have to dry clean and always hang things to dry.
  • It’s ok to go for style! There are so many options out there to decorate your nursery. Choose a theme that you love and go with it! Coordinate your colors and nursery essentials such as lamps, wall hangings, and pillows to match the theme. Many times you can find sets available.
  • Don’t break the bank on the nursery. Yes, it’s great to have a beautiful place to lay your little down in or rock him or her to sleep but if money is tight, it’s OK to scrimp. Search the baby market for sales and good deals and compare prices.
Enjoy your planning time because before you know it, they will be telling you they want to “re-decorate” their room.
