ydonna asked:


my son is 10 months old, strong and healthy, but i cannot find any information on this. Anyone know where I can buy one?
wow…people sure have some strong opinions! I think many people misunderstood that i was asking about a mattress PAD. At 10 months, he IS capable of rolling over, sitting up or even turning his head. I’m pretty sure my 27 lb baby wont sink too far into a 1 1/2 inch pad. AND anyone who has or has seen one knows that they are very firm. when I asked this question, I was hoping to get answers from people who can read and comprehend, or have knowledge of the product. thanks to those of you who tried to be helpful. good luck with your new baby ericka k. I hope you get a boy (4 sons/1- 14 year old daughter)they are all the fun with half the hytserics…lol. ps had to pick baby 1 as best, because it was the dumbest answer given…peace and long life, all.

Why in the heck would you want a memory foam pad for an infant? Are you insane? Just get a regular mattress, GEeeesh

id say no because there face, but im not sure but i wouldnt do it i have a 7 month old

i would just use a normal mattress if he is perfectly healthy. I think memory mattresses are reall only ment for people with back problems. Dont worry about it. My 2 year old has a mattress from Toys r us, and she is perfectly happy with it!

I don’t know why not.As long and it is right up against the inside of the crib bars I see no problem with it. Thats what u have to look out for…So the child can’t get caught inbetween the bars and the mattress.Good luck.

NO!!! Babies cannot sleep with soft, squishy things. They can suffocate from it.

Yes, just make sure that you lay the baby on it’s back because it could sufficate if you lay it face down. Later Bra. P.S. (you can find a really good deal on brand new mattresses at eBay

This is a very bad idea. Even though the baby is technically out of the SIDS range when a child or even an adult is on one of those pads they can suffocate if laying on their stomach. Keep a regular crib mattress and wait until he is old enough for a big boy bed for a different mattress. Good Luck!

I would ask my doctor and dont put one in unless you know its safe

bored silly January 12, 2010 at 11:22 pm

it is not safe. use a regular mattress. besides,even if it were safe, what in the world does a 10 month old need a memory foam mattress for anyway?

punk princess! January 13, 2010 at 6:29 pm

thats probably not very safe because if he rolls over, his face will sink down into the mattress and he might not be able to breath where as a stiff mattress will hold his head up so he wont suffocate. I know chances are slim, but do you really want to take that risk?

momma2mingbu January 15, 2010 at 10:34 am

I would not! Infants are supposed to have a FIRM sleep surface and memory foam is too cushy and gives too much. I think it would be a SIDS risk.

girlqueen January 20, 2010 at 9:07 am

I wouldn’t think so because a crib mattress is supposed to be pretty rigid,to ensure that the baby doesn’t sink into it and smother themselves.

Ericka K January 21, 2010 at 12:28 pm

You won’t find one for a crib, because they are not for cribs. SIDS can happen at any age, especially within the first year. Perfectly healthy babies die of it every single year.
