By Dorothea Frankson

A new baby brings many adventures into the lives of its parents. It may be difficult for some parents to figure out what they themselves should buy and what items they should place on a registry. Crucial items to organize in time are sheets etc. for the crib, as these are easy to forget in all the hurl burly of new parenthood, but are necessary for the newborn child's contentment and hygiene.

When looking at your baby bedding options, you should find out what your family and friends are planning to gift you. Baby bedding is a term widely used not only just for the sheets themselves but also for related crib accessories such as the comforter, bumper and crib skirt Of all the options available for new babies it's important to realize that there are many things that are not necessary when it comes to baby bedding, for instance decorative pillows and quilts are not necessary and can pose a risk to baby.

Whatever baby bedding you choose, it is extremely important that you remember not to place pillows or blankets on top of the baby, as they increase chance of suffocation.

Making the nursery as cheery and pretty as you can is important, as is keeping your baby and guests amused so make sure you have bright girl nursery bedding. Having lots of sheets on hand is necessary because babies wet themselves, have leaks, and need changing several times per day, more if the baby is sick. - 30224
