Change Bedding Ensemble And Keep Your Comforter
Cotton is the most popular bedding material but there are a few different types of cotton to choose from. Egyptian cotton is very expensive but also very luxurious. Standard cotton is the least expensive and is the most common material that is sold for bedding. Other materials include silk, flannel, and chenille.
The feel of the bedding you have can also affect how well you sleep. If you have cheap, itchy sheets, you are likely to not be as comfortable. Also, some of the poor Bedding sets out there sound like paper as you move around in bed, which could wake up a light sleeper. On the other hand, having a quality bedding set can offer you the right amount of softness and comfort necessary to help you sleep. They are usually noiseless when you turn over so they do not disturb you while you are asleep.
Whatever set you choose, be sure your newborn is peaceful, content and, most importantly, happy. And also make sure that your newborn is positioned thus so as not to move or turn over, with proper side pillows. However, even if your set comes with pillows, they should never be put in the crib of a very young baby.
How Much Bedding Do You Want? You do realize that some sets come with a total of 12 pieces right? Your standard items include a fitted sheet, decorative pillows, coverlet and bumper pad and other items include a valance, diaper stacker and matching lamp. If your budget isn't very big you may want to forgo the extras and just opt for a fitted sheet and coverlet.
Another part that might be included in the set is a crib skirt or dust ruffle. This is a good part of a set in that it can add to the appearance of the crib. It will also be able to cover any storage areas underneath the crib.
The design should have a lot of fluff, swirls, and curls. Try thinking about what little girls favorite thing are: flowers, clouds, hearts, stars, dogs and other babies.
The bedding used in a babies crib should be soft and washable. Popular materials are knitted cotton, flannel material, or woven material with a high thread count. It is important for the sheets and bedding to be machine washable, as in the babies first months and years there will be a lot of mess and very little time for hand washing!
You will also need to check with the parents to see what type of crib has been purchased. Some colors go best with certain finished cribs. Also, others will convert to toddler beds, daybeds or full size beds and you will want to coordinate the bedding set to make the overall theme of the room.
