Crib bedding refers to the collection of soft materials used to create a comfortable sleeping environment for infants in a crib. This typically includes a fitted sheet, a mattress pad, and sometimes a blanket or comforter. The fitted sheet is designed to fit snugly over the crib mattress, ensuring safety and comfort for the baby. Safety is a key consideration when choosing crib bedding. It is recommended to avoid items like pillows, heavy blankets, and bumper pads, as they can pose suffocation risks. Instead, many parents opt for sleep sacks or swaddles to keep their babies warm while minimizing hazards.
