Sleep Tight - Don't Let the Beddings Bite

Online, October 29, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Just as the bed is the focal point of any bedroom, so is the crib in every nursery. Most parents and parents-to-be simply ooh and ah over the adorableness that is the crib and what better way to enhance the cute and cuddly feeling than by adding the appropriate bedding. A nursery bedding sets the tone of a nursery just like a bed comforter makes the statement for the entire bedroom.

Nursery bedding for girls are even cuter and would make even older women wish themselves back to infancy to soak in the wonderful designs that are now available on the market. With the recent interest in embroidery, knitting, and other crafts, the market has generated an even greater spectrum of choices for the discerning parent. Online shops provide parents a variety of baby girl's nursery bedding that will make anyone coo in appreciation.

Nursery bedding for girls usually comes in the traditional "girl" colors of pinks and pastels and more often than not has tiny, adorable ruffles to go with them. Quilted pieces are also a crowd favorite, especially if they come with the flowers and butterflies themes.

The cuteness quotient is upped by the matching bedding, pillow covers, and blankets. Most nursery themes revolve around the tone set by the design of the crib and its bedding so many considers the choice of bedding as a crucial point when setting up the nursery.

Most pediatricians advocate the use of only a mattress that is just the right size and a fitted crib sheet. For most parents, this would seem almost too austere for a nursery. If you feel that a blanket or a quilt is practically essential, you can drape it over the crib when you put your baby to sleep. Despite how adorable matching bedding and blankets will look, it is not worth compromising the safety of your baby.

When choosing a crib sheet, it is also important not only that the crib sheet be beautiful and match the rest of the decor but that it must fit the mattress of the crib without fail. There is a danger of smothering if the crib sheet comes off sometime in the night so make sure that your adorable crib sheet will stay put even in the presence of a fussy sleeper.

To do this, choose a crib sheet with elastic that goes all the way around the whole sheet. A fitted sheet with elastic only on some portions run the risk of coming off and this poses a significant risk to your baby. It is also advisable to wash the crib sheet several times to make sure it will not shirk its duties and shrink on you.

While there is a lot of sentimentality attached to the choosing of nursery bedding, especially for little girls, it is a great deal better to be safe than to have an especially adorable nursery. If you must have all the ruffles, make sure you strip the crib to its bare essentials before tucking your baby girl in.
