How to choose a mattress for a newborn baby?

Therefore, her bed should be not only comfortable, but also safe.

Here arises the most common question - what mattress is better for a newborn, because the sleeping place should ensure the normal development of the

of a strong spine. Children under 3 years old have not yet formed the correct curve of the spine, so their mattress should be rigid.

The eco-friendliness and hygiene of the fillings are also important.

Requirements for mattresses for newborns.

Stiffness. Orthopedists and pediatricians are unanimously convinced that babies need to sleep on a hard surface without a pillow (but it is worth considering that everything is individual, and before buying a mattress or pillow, be sure to consult with a pediatric orthopedist! ).

A flat and hard surface should contribute to the correct formation of the spine and posture. A soft sleeping surface can lead to serious deformations and curvature of the back.

Filler. There are many fillers for mattresses, but not all of them are suitable for children. For infants, it is important to choose natural hypoallergenic materials, for example, coconut fiber. Coir is environmentally friendly, perfectly transmits air, non-hygroscopic (dries quickly), retains heat and original shape, is not saturated with extraneous odors. Your baby's sleep on a mattress with a coconut layer will be strong and healthy.

Cover. The outer shell of a mattress is just as important as its inner filling. To keep the sleeping space clean, the cover should be removable, easy to wash and quick to dry. It is desirable that the outer layer of the cover is made of natural fabric, such as cotton.

Size. The size of mattresses in a baby crib, as a rule, are standard: 60x120 cm; or 40x140 cm. However, there are cribs for babies of non-standard shapes. In this case it is better to order a mattress according to individual parameters. Moreover, VENETO is one of the few manufacturers that has its own production, which makes it possible to manufacture mattresses to individual dimensions.

Safety and hygiene. The outside of the mattress should not have rough seams, buttons, decorative elements. There are also special covers that retain moisture and protect the mattress itself from getting wet.

Orthopedic properties. Children's orthopedic mattress for a newborn should be firm to keep the baby's back in an equal position. Given that the weight is not small, so the presence of springs does not make much sense. In addition to coconut coir, additional comfort can be provided by a latex layer, memory foam and an additional layer of insulation, which keeps the bed a comfortable microclimate.

Types of children's mattresses for newborns.

To understand what mattress to buy a newborn, you should know that all orthopedic designs are divided into two:

1. Spring. The basis of such designs are metal springs. They can be dependent (connected with each other) and in this case the sleeping place will be soft or medium hardness, or independent, when each spring is an independent link (installed in hard and medium-hardness models). If parents for some reason stop at the spring model, it is better to choose a mattress for a newborn with an independent spring block, which can be used up to school age.
   
2. Springless. In the basis of the design, instead of springs, one or more anatomical layers are used. In this case, it is important that all materials were hypoallergenic and non-toxic. Such designs evenly distribute the load over the entire area of the bed and are characterized by a long service life, and the necessary rigidity is achieved due to different variations in the thickness of the layers.

To choose a mattress in a crib will help special samples, on which the product is shown in section.

Inside there can be several fillers among which:

Wool. Environmentally friendly material made of mixed natural fibers, most often cotton and wool (it should be remembered that animal hair can cause allergies).

Latex. Environmentally friendly material, derived from the juice of the plant - hevea promotes maximum relaxation of the back and the adoption of the correct position of the body. It is used in the production of elite models.

Coconut. Tough dense plant fiber, with excellent breathability. It is not subject to rotting, resistant to moisture, pathogenic microorganisms do not multiply in it, but most importantly, the coconut layer provides a perfectly firm and flat surface for sleeping.

Foam. Modern memory foam materials not only promote complete relaxation of the body, but also improve blood circulation. Sleeping on bases with this layer is considered the most comfortable.
