Choosing you baby bed is likely the most important determination you will need to make whilst you begin the process of design your babies nursery decoration. Here are a few tips that will help you make the right conclusion first time around.
Do your research thoroughly. No one has the time this days to go round from store to store looking the perfect baby bed, especially if you are pregnant. Using the internet can be extremely helpful in tracking down the latest nursery decoration styles, infant nursery furniture, infant nursery bedding and of course the best prices. And whilst you’ve made your selection you are are to buy on line or at the high street store.
While you`ve made your options, find a high street store that stocks the cot you have chosen, visit the store and check it out – look at the quality of the cot – is it strong and well made, do you like the design?
Do both sides of the cot bars lower or are they static? Are you able to adjust the base of the cot? For a new baby’s the base of the cot can be set higher and will make it easier for you to lift out your baby comfortably, and then as babies grows you are are to lower the base.
Do the bars on the cot meet safety standards of 2 3/8″ apart? Are the cot rails at least 9 inches from the mattress when lowered and 26 inches above the mattress when completely raised? Remember too, that buying a cot that converts into a junior bed will save you the expense of buying a new bed for your toddler later on.
you`ll be able to test the stability of a cot by giving it a good shake – does it feel strong and stable? Will a standard cot mattress fit nice and snug? Choose the best mattress you will be able to afford as your baby will spend a lot of time in there; a comfortable mattress makes for a happy baby and happy parents!
