As soon as your baby is born, you will most likely be sleeping less. That is why the baby nursery should be as comfortable as possible for you and your baby. You will most likely be spending most of your day in it. You may want to know which accessories are necessary and which ones you can do without. One of the most important nursery component is the baby bedding. How do you choose the best and safest bedding for your baby? We've all heard of the dreaded Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or SIDS. How do we prevent that from happening to us? The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends putting your baby on his back to sleep. It is advisable to put your baby on a firm mattress to sleep, never on a pillow, waterbed, sheepskin, couch, chair, or other soft surface. To prevent rebreathing, do not put blankets, comforters, stuffed toys, or pillows near the baby. Thus, you have to be very vigilant in ensuring your baby is sleeping on the safest bedding available. Tiny Tot Lot has the information you need to be able to pick the one that would be suitable to your needs.

There are a hundred other issues that concern moms. Some are serious, such as baby health and safety, while others less so, such as the color of the crib. But they are all valid. Now, we know where to go to for help.
