Crib bedding can make a nursery look wonderful, but the pillows and comforters should be used as decorative items only, because they are not safe to have in your child’s crib. You should talk to your pediatrician to get details, but in general, don’t use more infant bedding than you need to.
When your child is ready to sleep in a crib all night, remove all of the stuffed pillows and blankets; even though they’re cute, they do pose a risk of choking. Toys can be allowed in the crib with adult supervision, but they should be removed when the child begins to fall asleep.
You know it is time for a pillow and comforter when your child is ready for a toddler bed, but realize that even though there are more options for decorating that it will be your child who will want to pick out the choices.
