No previous guidance had begun to draw up a list of ” imaginary ” (but that will materialize in the short time) of all the furniture needed to furnish the room for just a small little child on the way.
We have focused only on certain aspects. We precisely compiled a list of essential items to have almost immediately. Most importantly, we have focused on the overall look of the room, ceiling, and furniture to buy for then wash them in peace only with soap and water. On the other hand, we will analyze some points dwelling in greater depth in this other guide.
For example, as for your baby’s bed, we have to think about some key points to make, also, in this case, the right choice.
- First of all, the bed will surely be exploited for the first three years of life, so try to choose a model adjustable and versatile.
- The breaks through the bed must be very sturdy and high enough to prevent your baby from climbing and then fall off and risk getting hurt.
- The distance between the bars must be right, or not too small to not allow children to climb or get stuck in hands and feet, but not too big to fail, for example, to put his head completely.
- Moreover, the bed’s stability will be not be underestimated since the bed shall never waver.
- Also, make sure that the bed respects all the safety rules; you can retrieve information from the associations to protect the consumer.
- Choose well where to place the bed. Avoid putting especially in the vicinity of the things that dangle or too close to objects that the child can grasp.
- Plush and other toys too hairy, it is best to place them out of the crib, at least until the child is not sufficiently grown.
- Regarding the mattress instead, buy latex or springs, and let us also on the dimensions of the same. There should be no more than two fingers of space between the mattress and the edge of the bed. Do not buy a mattress also too soft, but rather get stiff enough.
- The sheets use only 100% cotton sheets and never use nylon, as bathing creates a barrier to excessive moisture that could irritate your baby’s skin.
- For the blankets, instead, give preference to those light cotton and flannel.
- Always remember to tuck your baby so that no one remains overly exposed.
- As a rule, also, pillows and bumpers will not be needed.
- Airy daily on your baby’s crib, remove sheets and blankets, and lay them on the bed rails. This operation, done daily, is useful to eliminate bacteria and prevent infection.
- Finally, wash the sheets at least every three days.
