An Eddie Bauer Bassinet is the ideal product for your baby to sleep in. A baby comes out of a nice cozy womb where he has been very snug and secure. We then expect him to sleep in a big crib and wonder why he has problems settling.
A bassinet is much more appropriate for a newborn child. The smaller space is not so frightening and your baby should settle quicker. They are also small enough for you to have the cradle near the bed so your newborn can be near to you.
Always buy a new mattress for a newborn baby even if you are going to use a second hand cradle or crib from their sibling. The mattress needs to fit the cot properly as otherwise your baby could suffer accidental suffocation.
The current safety advice is that a newborn should be put to sleep on their back with their toes as close to the bottom of the cot or cradle as possible.
Never use a quilt with a new baby as they cannot yet control their body temperature and a duvet could lead to overheating. A sheet and blankets are safer. To prevent overheating, you should never put a newborn to sleep wearing a hat nor should you use any form of heating device in his crib. These guidelines will help to prevent a cot death tragedy in your home.
When shopping for your Eddie Bauer bassinet, you will see that you have plenty of options to choose from. You may decide to buy a cradle that rocks as the rocking motion helps to sooth a fretful child and send them off to sleep.
Other parents will prefer a bassinet that doesn’t move or play lullabies as they believe that baby will get into bad sleeping habits i.e. he or she will have to be sung or rocked to sleep every night.
In addition to different types of bassinets, you will find an array of different colors to suit the decor in any home. You may be able to find co-ordinating accessories as well. Some people like to have everything matching in baby's room from the drapes to the lampshade. There is also a range of prices so you should find the perfect model regardless of how much money you have available to spend.
It goes without saying that any product you buy for a child should have passed the rigorous safety tests. Never put a baby into a cot or cradle that isn't built to support the weight of that child. The cot should be made from strong materials and the edges should be smooth and any locks or latches tightly secured.
Your newborn will grow out of his Eddie Bauer bassinet within four to six months and will be ready to move onto his crib. Buying a decent brand name like Eddie Bauer means that you will be able to pass the cradle on to other babies in your family perhaps even keeping it for your grandchildren.
