which is the best type to buy?

where can i get one cheapest (thats still a good one)?

are protectors a bad idea, can they cause cot death?

Trix, we bought this one:

I think its worth getting a decent mattress as its important that LO gets good sleep - I thought the price of this one was reasonable too

I haven't heard that protectors would cause cot death? I have one ready for when Libby goes in the cot, as its under the bedsheet I don't think it makes a differnece...someone may correct me though?

Kiddicare do free del with orders over £50 (& delivery is quick too!)

Happy Shopping

yes i agre that you should have a good matress for your baby, we bought a sprung matress from Mothercare that was £50 & it is lovely.
its an Amicor sprung one.

We bought a brillient matress in Mothercare, cost £100 though.

The pictures are crappy on the webiste but in store you'd see how nice it was, the cover comes off for washing, it keeps heat/moisture away from baby and we just thought it was worth the price for something decent he'd be spending a fair amount of time on. It's cot-bed size we bought so should last from birth till around 4/5 years when he can have a proper big bed like Mummy & Daddy have!!

Weve not bought our cot/matress yet but the matreses in ikea are really cheap. The sprung matresses start at £25, which is loads cheaper than anywhere else.
