Things You Need To Know About Crib Safety For Your Baby

Crib Safety

Toddler Safety Rail

When you have a baby there are many things you need. You need clothes, bottles, diapers, wipes, a crib, and many others. This can be overwhelming when you stop to think about everything you need for such a small person. The cost of these items may be a concern to parents. Many places sell second hand baby items, you can even go to garage sales too. Most of these things will still be in good shape and you can find some great deals.

Toddler Safety Rail

Secondhand

You can probably find anything you need for your baby except maybe diapers and wipes somewhere they sell secondhand items. One thing we advise would be to not buy your crib second hand. A baby spends a lot of time in his crib. Buying a new crib is a much better choice, they do use them until they are at least one year of age.

Safety Standards

The safety standards for cribs have changed over the years. If you get an older crib it may not meet today's safety standards. The crib rails for instance need to meet measurement requirements. If the crib rails are too far apart the infant may get his head stuck between the bars. However, if the bars are too close the infant may get his arms or legs stuck between the bars. There should also be enough space between the top of the rail and the top of the crib mattress to minimize the risk of the child climbing over the railing and falling out.

Bumpers

The purpose of the bumper in the baby crib is to prevent the baby from getting hurt on the crib rails. Bumpers are made of fabric with soft filling to protect your child. If your child rolls over and bumps his head it wont hurt as bad, it also prevents the child from getting his head stuck between the bars. Even though it is designed to protect the child, you need to make sure it is secured to the crib properly to prevent suffocation. If the bumper is too loose the child could become entangled in it and suffocate.

Blankets and Pillows

These cute bedding sets you can buy usually come with matching pillows and blankets to match the bumper and crib sheet. Although it may look cute, they also pose a risk of suffocation. The child may become entangled in the blanket and may get it wrapped around his head or other body parts and cause an injury or suffocation. With a pillow it may hurt the babies neck, or if the pillow ends up on your babies face it may also cause suffocation.

Sleepers or wearable blankets that form to your babies body are suggested to keep your child warm. These two items will keep the child warm without the risk of suffocation. You may need to check on your child throughout the night to make sure he is not getting too warm.

Just remember that when purchasing a crib it is well worth the investment to buy a new crib. With a new crib you are insured that all the parts are there, it will be assembled correctly if you follow instructions, and that it meets today's safety standards. You may also choose to buy those cute bedding sets, who could resist them. Just remember that it is a good idea to remove the pillows and blankets when the child is sleeping, and to double check to make sure the bumper is on securely to prevent injury or worse. Taking these few simple steps and precautions will make you sleep better knowing your child is safe.

Blankets, pillows can be great for decoration, but they should be removed when it comes time for baby to go to sleep. Bumpers should be fastened properly and double checked at the baby's bedtime each night. During colder nights, parents put their babies in wearable blankets that form right to the baby. There is no risk of the baby becoming entangled in the wearable blanket. Parents should check on the baby during the night to insure that he does not get overheated when wearing the very warm blankets.

With a few little steps, parents can insure safety with their baby's crib bedding. However, they need to remember to avoid using older baby cribs. Older cribs do not always meet today's safety standards. They often do not come with instructions and missing a minor detail in the instructions could be disastrous. In order to assure your baby's safety in a crib, it is very important to consider turning down the second hand offers from your friends and family and buy new. The investment will be worth the peace of mind in knowing that the baby crib you chose is safe and secure.

Baby Crib Safety - Frequently Asked Questions

The crib is where your baby will spend a lot of their time and you want to be sure they are safe. Below are some of the questions (with the answers) that are asked about crib safety. Topics such as mattress position, how to place your baby in the crib, and general safety standards are discussed, as are other issues. If you need further information you can search the Internet and visit baby furniture stores.

Toddler Safety Rail

Q. Are there safety standards for baby cribs?

Toddler Safety Rail

Yes there are some very exact standards for your baby's crib. In 1974 it was made law that cribs should no longer be painted with lead based paint. It was discovered that the ingestion of lead (from any source) could cause learning disabilities and other difficulties in young children. The slats of the crib must be no more than 2 3/8 inches apart, this is to prevent your baby from getting his body or head stuck between the bars causing injury or strangulation. The side bar should be 26 inches above the mattress when it is in its lowest position. If your child is more than an inch taller than the sidebar it is time to move him into a regular bed.

Q. Are there some hazards in my baby's crib that I need to be aware of?

Your mattress must fit snugly in the crib; an ill-fitting mattress could cause your baby to slip between the mattress and the side bar causing suffocation. The mattress height should be able to be adjusted into at least three different levels. When your baby becomes more mobile you will want to put the mattress in the lowest position to prevent your baby from climbing or falling out. The slats should be tight, loose slats could pinch little fingers. Do not put the crib near a window to prevent your baby from possibly falling out or becoming tangled in Venetian blind cords.

Q. What are some historical facts about the crib?

Here is a short chronological time line of crib facts:

1973 - The standard for crib slats was to be no more than 2 3/8th inches apart to prevent your baby from slipping through or getting their head stuck. Also, double latches for drop-down sidebars were to become the norm.

1976 - The standard for cutouts in the crib end panels are presented. The end panels must not have any decorative cutout designs. Children were getting their limbs or heads caught causing serious injury or death.

1978 - Cribs must now be painted with non-toxic finish.

1981 - Two models of cribs with cutouts are recalled.

1988 - A voluntary standard addresses mattress support hardware, failure of glued or bolted connections, drop-side latch failure and loosened teething rails.

1990 - No corner posts or projections can be more than 1/16th of an inch above the drop-side.

1998 - California and Washington mandate that hotel cribs must meet the same standards
set for full-size cribs

1998 - Portable cribs must now meet the same standards as full-sized cribs.

Q. How can I tell when my baby is ready for a regular bed?

When your child stands more than a couple of inches taller than the sidebar with the mattress in the lowest position. If your child is climbing out of the crib, for his safety put him in a regular bed.

Q. How should I put my baby to sleep in his crib?

Place your baby on his back or on his side for sleeping. Use one piece sleepers rather than blankets. Your baby could slip under the blanket and possibly suffocate. Remove all pillows and toys as well, in order to prevent suffocation.

Q. Is it safe to cover my baby with a blanket?

A blanket sleeper will keep your baby sufficiently warm while sleeping. If you absolutely need to use a blanket, tuck it in around the bottom of the mattress. Place your baby with his feet toward the end-panel and the blanket should go no higher than his/her chest.

Q. Is a mesh sided crib safe to use for my baby?

Yes, a mesh crib is safe provided the mesh is less than 1/4 inch in size, smaller than a tiny button on baby's clothes. The should be rips, tears, or loose threads. If staples are used to attach the mesh they must not be exposed and the mesh must be securely attached to the top rail and the floor plate.

Q. Can I safely use bumper pads in my baby's crib?

While bumper pads are not necessary, they can safely be used. They must be very close the edge of the mattress and properly secured. The bumpers must be flat and not puffy, as your baby could get stuck between the bumper and the mattress and suffocate.

Q. What can I do to keep my baby's crib safe?

In order to keep your baby's a safe place, you should make sure to all connections are secure and that there are no broken or missing parts. Regularly, check the teething rail for splits or cracks. Make sure the mattress spring support and your crib will withstand your baby's increasing mobility. The mattress itself should have no splits, tears, or holes.

Q. How can I tell when it's time to lower the mattress?

When your baby becomes more active, when s/he begins to pull himself to a standing position or when he sits up alone it will be time to lower the mattress to prevent your little one from either climbing out or falling out.

Q. Can I hang a mobile over my baby's crib?

Mobiles and crib gyms can be used to entertain your baby but when your child is able to get on to their hands and knees or pull themselves up. This will prevent your baby from becoming entangled in them.

In Conclusion

Making sure your baby's crib is safe, is an ongoing to task. Proper positioning of the mattress, making sure all connections are secure and that there are no loose slats that could pinch little fingers will help to keep your baby's crib a safe place for him to be.
Be sure to place him in the crib on his back or side and dress him in a sleeper rather than using a blanket. Keeping these tips in mind will help keep your baby safe and give you some peace of mind.

Crib Safety For Your Baby

There comes a time when every child needs to be put in there crib. For most parents, this is around three months old. Others may do it earlier, some regret doing it later. Whatever time frame you and your husband decide on, be sure to have a crib that is up to date and meets all safety requirements.

Toddler Safety Rail

If you were given a crib by your mother that has been passed down from generation to generation, chances are it is not up to specks. It may have lead paint and that is dangerous for all babies. It may not meet the required space limit either. The bars on a crib should be spaced apart no more than 2 3/8 inch. Anything wider can be dangerous for infants because there is a possibility that they can get their head stuck in the bars. If you were given an antique crib that was made prior to 1974, chances are that it does not follow this guidelines. Throw out any cribs that have decorative cutouts or corner posts as well.

Toddler Safety Rail

You also should make sure that there are no cutouts on the baby's headboard or footboard. This can cause their head to get trapped as well. You want to get a crib that has headboards and footboard that are all one piece. The top rails of crib sides, in their raised position, should be at least 26 inches above the top of the mattress supporting its lowest position.

Cribs should be kept away from other pieces of furniture in the room, especially if your child is pulling up and walking. A child who has a crib placed near a dresser can get hurt depending on the objects that are placed on top of the dresser. A baby monitor that is attached to a cord can be pulled into the crib causing a choking hazard for the child. Glass frames and other pictures that can be picked up and then stood on are a risk simply because the glass can break and cut the child. Make sure you take all precautions when it comes to your child's safety and their crib. Always check on them when they are left alone in a crib and never let a sibling get them out of it without your help.

Baby Bedding: Crib Safety

Make sure that the baby bedding and crib for your new baby are safe

Toddler Safety Rail

There will be plenty of people queuing up to give you their old nursery furniture and crib bedding when you are pregnant. I know that we belong to a throwaway society these days but there is something about our baby things that makes us want to hold on to them. Be grateful for these offerings because babies are an expensive business but make sure it's all safe before you use it.

Toddler Safety Rail

Is it a cot, cradle or crib?

There is a special something about your baby's first bed, whether it's a Moses basket or a crib (cot or cradle in the US) or a cot (US - crib). You can spend many hours lovingly re-lining and making drapes for a cradle that you've been given and you can check whether it's safe for baby at the same time.

Checking baby bedding and crib for safety

If your cradle was made of wicker make sure that there are no broken or loose bits of wood and that all the joints are tight. You will probably need to replace the mattress because that's the one thing that may not have survived very well. When fitting the drapes make sure that there are no loose threads or pieces of material that the baby might grab a hold of and shove into their mouth.

Buy new bedding for crib if you can

Most organisations that are concerned with the safety of baby furniture, such as the Juvenile Products Manufacturer's Association in the USA and British Standards in the UK say that you should buy new furniture and bedding if it's possible. The products displaying either the JPMA seal of approval or the BS 'Kite' mark, have been tested that they meet all the appropriate safety requirements.

Personally I see nothing wrong with hand-me-downs as long as you check them properly for safety. After all it isn't very ecologically friendly to discard perfectly good furniture and baby crib bedding. There are some checks you can do on cribs, to ensure that your baby is safe and happy. Hopefully the baby will spend a lot of time on it's own in the crib so it's worth spending some time looking it over.

Baby bedding crib safety checklist

Here are a few points to remember when checking your baby equipment for safety:

Make sure there is no chipped, loose or toxic lead paint. To stop baby's head from getting between the bars of the crib make sure that the bars are closer than 2 and 3/8 inches apart. The header and footer boards of the crib should be solid with no holes for baby to get into trouble with. Make sure that there are no posts to catch baby's clothes on. Tight joints and fixings will prevent the crib from wobbling. Make sure that the side rail raising and lowering mechanism of the crib can be managed with one hand and is fully secure when raised. Ensure that the top of the side rail is at least 22 inches above the crib mattress. The mattress should be firm and clean. I think that I would always buy a new mattress for a new baby. Make sure that it fits snugly in the crib. All bedding must conform to the fire safety regulations. Make sure that bumper strings are hidden and secure. Bedding for cribs: Never use duvets, quilts, sheepskin or pillows for babies under 12 months old as they can overheat. Use a combination of sheets and blankets and place a thermometer in the room. Never put the crib next to cords, lamps, window blinds/curtains, or furniture that the baby could climb. You will be surprised at how well they can climb.

Have a safe, wonderful and fun time with your baby and remember that they grow up quickly.

Baby Safety Products - 3 Must Have Safety Items For New Moms

Baby safety products are essential items for new moms. There is nothing more overwhelming than realizing that this little guy or gal is totally dependent upon you to make them safe in this world. The responsibility is huge, but so is the reward! Here is what you need to enjoy your little bundle of joy and stress a little less.

Toddler Safety Rail

1. Baby Monitor: You can not keep your eyes glued on your child, no matter how much you would like to. A monitor ensures that you can get needed tasks done or sleep well at night knowing you will hear your baby when they cry. When looking at monitors here are some helpful tips:

Toddler Safety Rail

- Monitors with a frequency of 900MHZ or higher will provide less noise interference and better clarity.

- Choose a monitor that features a low battery light so you know when the batteries need to be changed.

- Think about the feature that will provide you with the most comfort and ease of use. For instance, many models offer belt clips for easier portability. Some models come with a sound activated light. These are nice for those times when you are vacuuming, blowing your hair, or otherwise engaged in high noise activities. There are also video monitors you can purchase which allow you to see what is going on.

2. Baby Play Pen/Play Yard: It will not be long before your baby starts crawling around. A play pen provides a safe place to play while you are busy doing other things. They are also great for portability and provide a travel crib/changing table and many even feature a top bassinet.

A baby play pen is one of the most versatile baby accessories, and considered a must have product for moms. When looking for a play pen, keep these things in mind:

Test the play pen for sturdiness and portability. You want a sturdy play area but also one that is easy to set up and take down.

Check to make sure the play pen top securely locks, that there are no tears in the mesh on the side, and that the mesh is securely tied to the top rail and the floor.

Look for ones that provide features meaningful to you. For instance, if you plan to take your baby to the park a play pen with a top canopy that shields him or her from the sun would be a good pick for you.

Finally, if buying new, make sure you fill out the warranty. This ensures you receive any information on product recalls.

3. Baby safety gates: Safety gates are used for babies starting at six months of age. They are crucial for houses with stairs, but also helpful to separate pets from your child or to keep your children out of certain locations in the house.

Here are some tips on using gates effectively:

Gates used at the top of stairs, either outside or inside, should always be hardware mounted. These are screwed into the wall to ensure optimum safety. The gate only swings one way, so make sure it swings away from the stairs, rather than over them.

Gates used at the bottom of stairs or between rooms can be pressure mounted.

Falling Out of Bed? 3 Essential Tips of Choosing Bed Safety Rails

Choosing bed safety rails are more complicated than you think. Here are the 3 Essential Secrets to choosing a bed safety rail.

Toddler Safety Rail

1. Purpose: you need to decide what it is going to be used for.
2. Entrapment: zero entrapment will prevent accidental injury or death
3. Life-Style: your bed safety rail needs to fit your lifestyle, not the other way around.
4. Bonus Secret: Guarantee: This is one of the most overlooked secrets. If your bed safety rail doesn't fit your needs, you need to be able to take it back no questions asked!

Toddler Safety Rail

First Step: Find the purpose
There are two types of bed safety rails; the kind that prevent you from falling out of bed and the kind that help you get out of bed.

One type is a "bed rail guard". It is used to keep you from falling out of bed. You should to be looking for a full size bed safety rail. A full size rail will create better protection from falling than one of a smaller size.

The Second type is the "bed assist rail". This is used to assist you to stand from your bed safely. You want to look for a half size bed safety rail for better maneuverability. Having a half size rail will make it easier to get out of bed, while still providing the support you need to stand up. It still provides fall protection but may not be as effective as the full size rail.

Of course, there may be a need for a combination of both "guard rail" and "assist rail". For this, you may want to consider a bed safety rail that extends in length after installation such as the EZ Adjust Bed Rail.

Second Step: Entrapment
This is absolutely essential for the safety of you or your loved one. When looking for a bed safety rail, you need to make sure that it is zero entrapment. This means that it doesn't have space where you can get entrapped in the bed rail. This is a leading cause in injuries and accidental deaths.

Third Step: Life Style
Your bed safety rail needs to fit your lifestyle, not the other way around. Here is how to choose one to fit your lifestyle. If you are a traveler, you may want to consider a portable bed rail. If you want it fold out of the way when it's not in use, you may want to consider a folding bed rail. If you want a one that extends in length, you may want an extendable rail. There are also pouches to put your books, magazines, and TV remotes in just for your convenience. Make sure that in not only fits your needs, but it fits your lifestyle.

So what bed safety rail is best for you? Hopefully our "3 Essential Secrets" gave you some guidance. To see pictures and videos of possible bed rails for you, visit http://www.stander.com.

Sturdy Construction with a Secure Fit
The all-steel frame provides a strong, safe barrier that prevents your child from falling from bed while sleeping. The patented Gap Guard system features two braces that hold the bedrail tightly against the opposite side of the mattress. This ensures that the bedrail does not shift or slip during the night and prevents unwanted gaps. The bedrail is 56 inches long to provide maximum coverage, while the sidewall is 20 inches high, so it can accommodate the thickest of mattresses.

Not only does the bedrail meet the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards and is certified by the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA), it's also PVC- and lead-free.

Easy and Quick Set Up and Storage
There are no tools required to set up the bedrail, so it's ideal for busy parents and caregivers. When you need to store the bedrail away, the HideAway technology incorporates an exclusive Glide Trac system that allows the bedrail to fold flat. It rolls smoothly and tucks in easily between the mattress and box spring. This keeps the bedrail stored discretely when not in use and allows access to the mattress for changing bed sheets and comforters.

Wipes Clean and Lightweight for Travel
A durable mesh nylon fabric covers the steel frame, making it comfortable to the touch. For added convenience, the fabric is easy to keep clean by simply wiping with a damp washcloth.

The bedrail measures 56 inches long and 20 inches tall for extra security and your peace of mind.

The Regalo HideAway Extra Long Bedrail is backed by a manufacturer's limited 90-day warranty.

The Rail sides of the Crib are often made of a tough substance. A Crib Rail Cover is designed to overlap this tough substance and to buffer it. Teething Railings are ordnarily covered with a varnish or some other kind of paint. This has the potential to harm your baby. When your child starts teething he or she may attempt to chew on the Crib Rail. The Crib Rail Cover was designed to protect your teething child from the problems which can occur from chewing on the sides of the Crib Rail.

A Crib Rail Cover is an item that you may need to get just in case the need arises. Teething tots enjoy biting on things. The Crib Rail Cover provides the perfect testing ground for new babies to practice using their new teeth. Sometimes teething children will stand in the crib and chaw on the Crib Rail and this isn't safe for your little baby. Often times the young infant can incidentally bump their teeth on the Crib Rail.
