Bedding
There are many choices when it comes to crib bedding. But choosing the right sheet is more than just selecting a cute pattern that will be in line with your preferences. You also want something that is firmly fitted and doesn't clump up in places where it could pose a danger of suffocation for your baby.

Mattress
When it is about crib mattresses, firmness and size are important. The AAP recommends using a mattress that is firm and fits snugly and does not leave an impression when you lay a sheet on it. The mattress should be the appropriate size for the crib and should remain in place after your child has grown out of it.
It is also important to determine whether the mattress is made up of chemicals that may harm your child. Find mattresses that are odor-free and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)--which typically emit a unpleasant chemical smell. A good indicator is a CertiPUR-US certificate which confirms that the foam used in mattresses is free of Ozone depleters, PBDEs and TDCPP and TCEP flame retardants mercury, lead, and other heavy metals, formaldehyde, phthalates regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and volatile organic compounds.

A surface that is waterproof or wipeable is better for cleaning, since you'll have to change sheets at night.

The crib rails must not only be strong but also fit comfortably within the frame of the crib. This will keep the mattress from becoming too flimsy and potentially dangerous for your child. When buying a crib rail, be sure to examine the inside of the frame because there are slight differences in the size of cribs (his comment is here). The ideal space should be no more than three fingers wide.
