But yeah, I think this is something that becomes more essential as baby grows. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27296 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 01:42:52 +0000 looch 27296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>just a waterproof mattress cover then sheet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27280 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 23:38:47 +0000 Rosie Girl 27280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Waterproof mattress pad for us! It was a life saver, especially later on when potty training! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27251 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 21:34:57 +0000 Mrs. Bee 27251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a bedbug cover, then a waterproof mattress pad and a sheet. the waterproof mattress pad has been absolutely essential because charlie tends to throw up a lot. otherwise we'd have one stained mattress by now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27241 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 21:14:14 +0000 mediagirl 27241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, a friend just gave me this advice. She layered the crib - waterproof mattress pad, sheet, waterproof mattress pad, sheet, sheet. This way if there was spit-up, pull off one sheet. If there's an explosion, take off the top layer. No need to remake the crib. I loooooved that idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27124 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 18:52:33 +0000 Rubies 27124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a fitted sheet and a sheet saver for her drool. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27115 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 18:38:18 +0000 L2sweetpea 27115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the waterproof mattress pad, and though I haven't necessarily needed it there have been some times when she spit up quite a bit in her sleep, and I'm sure it helped out somewhat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27114 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 18:34:03 +0000 Andrea 27114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the water proof pad, too, but I don't think you really need it. Maybe it will become more relevant once my daughter is in undies? We don't really have any diaper leakage .... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27062 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 16:15:49 +0000 heffalump 27062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a little water proof pad thing on there.</p> <p>But oddly enough there hasn't been any issues yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-protect-your-crib-mattress#post-27045 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 15:36:39 +0000 autumnlove 27045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our crib mattress just arrived! DH and I are going to go shop for bedding later today...</p> <p>How do you protect your crib mattress? Do you just put on a fitted sheet? Or do you use a waterproof pad, and sheet savers? What are your tricks? :-) </p>
