It has something to do with the sealant they use to lock in the foam. Call the manufacturer...they issued us a replacement! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-smells-from-foam-mattress#post-638867 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:33:17 +0000 JoJoGirl 638867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was going to say the same about off-gassing... unfortunately a lot of them do that. We just bought a new mattress for ourselves recently and opted for latex instead of foam partially because we were nervous about the smells. They say it passes though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-smells-from-foam-mattress#post-638863 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:32:10 +0000 prettylizy 638863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eep, that would drive me crazy. Did you try googling 'getting smell out of foam mattress?" I've heard of offgassing in foam matt's, but never that bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-smells-from-foam-mattress#post-638849 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:29:52 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 638849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought the Sealy Naturalis Crib Mattress a few months ago to replace the traditional spring mattress my SIL gave us (it had been used with all 3 of her kids), in hopes that it might help DD sleep better. But, every time I walk in her room, it has an almost sour milk smell. At first I thought it was the diapers, but I realized it's actually the mattress, and it makes her and her blanket smell funny. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001JD7TH4/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001JD7TH4/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a></p> <p>Has anyone else noticed this? What would you do? I hate to spend more money on another mattress, but I don't want her smelling like sour milk.. </p>
