Choosing a Moses Basket that"s Right for Your Baby
Moses Baskets are a great option for today's on-the-go mom. As a mother of three, I wish I had known about this option and think it would have been on my must have list.
A Moses Basket is an convenient alternative to a bassinet. They make a perfect bed for the first few weeks of a baby's life. Newborn babies may be placed in a crib to sleep, but you may prefer to use a Moses Basket as it provides a small cocoon-like space that your baby may find comforting.
Moses Baskets are convenient, as a new baby will spend a lot of time sleeping in the first few weeks of life. It is easy to move the basket from room to room as you go about your day and keep an eye on your sleeping baby. It is also convenient to place the basket near your bed so that your little one is close for those 2:00 A.M. feedings.
You should never move the Moses Basket while the baby is inside and the basket should never be placed on a surface where it could tip and fall such as a counter or table.
Choose a Moses Basket with a firm mattress that fits snugly. Only use a basket that has been designed to be a Moses Basket. As with any baby bedding remember to follow safe bedding practices for infants. Place your baby on his or her back to sleep on a firm, tight-fitting mattress. Do not place pillows, quilts or other pillow like objects in the basket with your baby and do not cover your baby's head while he or she is sleeping.
Always remember to consult your doctor on the best sleeping arrangements for your baby. If your doctor agrees, a Moses Basket may be an excellent and convenient option for you!
