If you are a seasoned parent, you fully know leaks happen. Leaks, sweat, spit up, projectile barfing, diaper blowouts and even more. It is amazing how much mess can come out of a tiny baby! And, baby isn’t the only one. A new mom can have her own messes in bed at night. Breastfeeding can be a messy affair in those early months, especially with a heavy milk supply.
Luckily, your new mattresses don’t have to suffer. Protect your new crib mattress with the Comfort Shield Terry Crib Mattress Protector with Spill Block.
At just $14.99, this protector offers breathable, waterproof polyurethane on one side, and absorbent terrycloth on the top side. The fitted sides keep the protector in place and keep the whole mattress safe from spills. It even has a dust mite barrier, so no worries about your crib suffering from mite infestation.
My favorite thing about this protector is the terrycloth topping. It is so absorbent, that I need not worry about a big toddler diaper leak or a breastpump mishap. Most mattress protectors just have a thin quilted fabric, which can do the job for small spills, but not for the big messes. Terrycloth all the way! Plus, it is squishier so the bed is a little more soft on an overly firm mattress. My toddler loves a softer bed. The cover is still thin enough to be safe of course for my newborn’s crib. For even more comfort, cover the mattress protector with a Snoozy 100% cotton jersey knit crib sheet. This crib sheet is great because it does not have elastic, making it super easy to change. No more struggling with tight corners in the middle of the night, half asleep. This jersey sheet goes on in a snap and is super soft against baby’s skin.
For Pack n’ Play protection, try a protector that is actually designed to fit like the Snoozy Organic Mattress Pad. The organic fibers are soft and nontoxic. It offers enough protection against spit up and leaks so we aren’t stuck wondering how to clean our Pack n’ Play mat. My three week old hates the hardness of the playpen mat on its own, but the Snoozy Organic Mattress pad offers just enough cushioning to make her willing to hang out on the mat for a bit.
But, what about Mom and Dad’s bed? Diaper changes, breastfeeding, spit up, co-sleeping…..there are so many instances providing a need for protecting your family bed mattress as well. Enter the Comfort Shield Premium Waterproof Sheet Protector. This protector has Ultra Soft Poly-Brush Surface so it is comfortable to sleep right on the pad, compared to pads with a more scratchy surface. It lasts 300 washes or more, so use it again and again as a barrier against spills, leaks, and other messes. It is great for nursing a baby, or absorbing those annoying night sweats.
With these protective barrier sheets starting at just $15 in price, it is easy to see why proper mattress protection is a great idea. No need to ruin those expensive beds and cribs, when you can keep them in good shape for years to come. Enjoy your new family without worries of leaks or stains!
