Pregnancy mothers face a variety of entangled choices when preparing all kinds of supplies for unborn babies in advance. In particular, expectant mothers who have not given birth before can usually find a suitable balance between “scientific†opinions and “traditional†opinions. In the collision between "science" and "tradition", the prospective mother and prospective grandmother usually can't convince anyone. Ms. Li has recently faced such a situation. She believes that the baby mattress should be soft, and the prospective grandmother thinks that the newborn should sleep on a hard bed.
"When we bring children, there are some mattresses, not all of them are covered with cotton wool on the bed." Ms. Li’s mother said with some disdain that the baby mattresses are soft and soft. Can the mattress be suitable for newborns to sleep?
A new study published in the American Journal of Pediatrics warns parents that choosing baby bedding that is too soft can increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Dr. Rachel Munn, a researcher at the National Children's Medical Center at George Washington University, surveyed 83 newborn families and found that more than half of the new mothers admit that in order to make their babies more comfortable and warm, and to prevent their heads, When the hands and feet are bruised, choose soft bedding, pillows and mats. Dr. Moon said that too soft pillows, blankets and bedding will increase the risk of child suffocation. Some parents also installed a cushion on the edge of the bed to prevent the baby from getting a head injury. However, the study found that the actual risk of accidental injury or death from the cushion is far greater than the benefits. However, if the bed is too hard, it does not mean that it is good for the development of the newborn. If the mattress is too hard, it will cause the child to have poor bone development and even leave the hidden danger of "spine scoliosis". If you choose a mattress that is specifically designed for newborns, it will not only make your newborn healthy, but also reduce spitting milk.
How to choose a baby mattress is also a problem that many parents are entangled. "I went to see the baby mattress, so I can't sleep and feel it when I am small. I press it with my hand and it will collapse." Ms. Li’s mother felt that the baby mattress that collapsed with one hand was definitely too Soft.
The reporter learned from a merchant that the correct way to choose a baby mattress is not to press it by hand, because the area of ​​the palm is small, and the pressure will become larger after the force is applied. The natural mattress will look soft. But newborns don't have the same weight, so the mattress they sleep on should be made up of a softer upper and lower layer and a strong mid-layer. On the one hand, the middle layer can provide the necessary support to the child's body. At the same time, it can also transfer the pressure to the soft lower layer, thus holding up the child's entire body without causing spinal deformity. It is convenient to identify whether the mattress is soft and hard. Let the baby weighing about 3 kilograms sleep on the mattress. If the depth of the depression of the mattress is about 1 cm, such softness is suitable. In addition, the professional children's mattress manufacturers will also produce adolescent mattresses, so you can choose a teenager mattress with the same material to experience.
Newborn mattresses are made from natural coir and natural latex mattresses, which are preferred for breathability, insect resistance, sputum resistance, mildew resistance, moderate elasticity and support. The size of the mattress matches the bed frame to avoid accidents such as pinching or falling.
