Is there any pleasant sight than seeing a just-awakened baby
after a good sound sleep? With the correct choice of the baby
cot and a vigilant eye, can’t we ensure our babies to have a
safe and sound sleep? Of course, yes, why not.
Often when babies are put to sleep, into a cradle or a cot,
you
feel relaxed, and try to make optimum use of that time doing
some work or relaxing. In this situation, you should be
extremely careful so that accidents related to baby cots are
avoided. Never let the baby out of your sight.
Choosing a good baby cot
We have the liberty of choosing the baby cots as per our
choice
and safety of our baby, since wide ranges of Baby cots are
available nowadays.
·If the baby cot is made of wood/wrought iron and has thin
strips, ensure that the distance between the strips is less
than 2 inches. This will avoid the baby’s head being trapped
in
between the strips.
·Avoid old and used baby cots; there may be chances of cracks,
or chipping off of the paint coating. This may harm the baby,
if she is teething.
·Check for pointed surfaces or splinters in a baby cot.
·You better look into the height of the baby cot, so that she
doesn’t topple down while standing.
·The mattresses should partly cover the sides of the baby cot,
so that baby’s hand and legs don’t get trapped into the strips
of the baby cot.
·The size of the baby cot should be such that her feet does
not
touch the end of the cot and can have enough space for rolling
at least once.
Safety in using a baby cot
By any chance if the baby is made to sleep on the bed, and you
are having a sound sleep, there are chances of the baby
rolling
and falling down the bed, and getting injured. An adult bed
has
bedspreads, pillows lying around. There are chances of the
baby
being suffocated. So it is better to have a perfect baby cot
for
our little wonders that bring joy and cheers in our life. The
pleasure in seeing a baby sleep is hardly measurable.
