So what's up with us? Nothing much really. Our child's great grandfather bought her/him an Aerosleep mattress. It is not just your ordinary foam mattress but, it is designed to be breathable and safe for baby. That means that the chance of SIDS is minimal! The mattress comes with a washable breathable mattress protector. In addition to that, his/her great grandfather bought a compatible mattress cover as well.
Yes the mattress itself costs €159 euro already! I know there are cheaper alternatives to that, like buying a complete set of cot or getting a cheaper mattress or worse let the baby sleep in her/his parents' bed so you don't have to spend on anything (lol). However, I think it is OUR personal choice. For others having baby might be as easy as changing clothes but it is not like that for us.
I don't think our child is not worth to have what's best for it just because others see other people not caring where their child would sleep.
Anyway bompa (great grandfather) said that because he bought the same gift for Elias, there is no reason for him not to buy our child the same thing.
We are more than thankful for the gift.
