Last week I accompanied my news reporter friend to a seminar organized by a Baby Care Organization. It was mainly on Baby-Safety. An estimated 2, 500 new born babies die every year. The researchers found that many SIDS are caused due to suffocation by extra accessories like pillow, blankets etc. Here I’m presenting the views of expert pediatricians about crib sets for new parents.
Five Safety Measures For Using Crib Set
Though co-sleeping with infant is convenient during those late night feedings for exhausted new moms, yet this convenience may sometimes be deadly. So the pediatricians recommend letting the new born sleep in crib bedding considering the following tips:
- Only the mattress and a fitted sheet should be in the crib. Make sure that the mattress pad and sheet fit the mattress tightly.
- Anything extra like pillow, dolls or extra sheets should not be kept beside new born to prevent from suffocation.
- Blanket or comforter should not be used to keep the baby warm; instead he/she can be dressed in warmer clothing. The new born can get smothered by its own blanket which may suffocate the baby.
- A ripped sheet should not be used. A small rip can get larger causing hazards to the baby. Baby’s hands or legs can get stuck into the rip. So either repair it or use new one.
- Keep the baby’s bed clean to avoid any rash on the tender skin of the infant.
