By Tonia Michael


The most important thing to think about when choosing baby boy crib bedding is to be aware of safety precautions. If there are lot of items inside the crib that pose a risk for strangulation, it is not good for baby. It is fun to decorate the nursery simply use caution regarding safety issues when picking out the bedding set.

Nursery bedding sets include a coordinated blanket, bumper pad set, sheet and pillow. Make sure that the crib sheet fits snugly on the mattress. Blankets are usually thick and puffy and will look good if you hang it on the wall as a decoration. If you prefer to use a blanket, buy one that is lightweight so it does not get in the way of breathing. Pillows should not be used in the crib as it also is a safety hazard.

Bumper pads surround the edges of the mattress and protect the limbs from getting stuck between the slats. They are not really necessary but are still very popular. The danger is that the infant may get caught between the bumper and the crib side or strangulate in the strings. A safer choice is the ones that are available that surround each slat or those made of mesh that create a breathable surface. If choosing a traditional bumper pad set be sure the strings are between seven and nine inches long. Avoid using the really fluffy, overstuffed pads. Thinner pads serve the purpose just as well. When baby is able to stand, remove the pads from the crib.
