Having said that, all that schmancy matching stuff goes out the window in the first couple days. You'll be pretty happy to have a sheet that isn't thrown up on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2194610 Sun, 31 May 2015 12:19:17 +0000 GrapeCrush 2194610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just folded it up and put it in the closet. I wish I had thought it through, and only registered for the sheets instead of a set that was barely used. It's one thing I telling people who ask about what to register for, not to register for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2194588 Sun, 31 May 2015 11:30:50 +0000 sapphire 2194588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just registered for sheets. So many people gave us blankets though! We use them to keep warm when sitting in the rocker , for tummy time, in the car seat, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2194228 Sat, 30 May 2015 11:30:15 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 2194228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm planning on just draping it over the glider or something, until he's older, when we switch him to the toddler bed position. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2193491 Fri, 29 May 2015 12:51:37 +0000 CakeLady 2193491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just got sheets in fun patterns. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2193429 Fri, 29 May 2015 12:16:05 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2193429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I regret getting a bedding set. My husband was really into it. We keep the blanket on the glider and take it down so he can name the animals and play with it a little. Now that he is a toddler he sleeps with his A&amp;A dream blanket which is so much nicer and cozier. He wore sleep sacks when he was younger. I loved those! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2193425 Fri, 29 May 2015 12:09:34 +0000 mrsjyw 2193425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never used the bumper and ds uses the blanket now on his twin bed at 2.5! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2193423 Fri, 29 May 2015 12:08:50 +0000 hilsy85 2193423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a sheet and crib skirt separately. I wouldn't have used the bumpers or blanket so it would have been a waste. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2193422 Fri, 29 May 2015 12:07:23 +0000 Meridian 2193422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never got a set, just got separate sheets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192617 Thu, 28 May 2015 19:11:46 +0000 regberadaisy 2192617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just registered for sheets because I had no need for the puffy blanket or padded bumper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192608 Thu, 28 May 2015 19:06:33 +0000 Foodnerd81 2192608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: I should also add, dhs grandmother is a big quilter and we already have a couple of beautiful quilts from her and I knew she would make some for C. So I knew those would be more special than anything I found at PBK. Obviously not everyone will be getting beautiful handmade quilts though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192597 Thu, 28 May 2015 18:59:49 +0000 anbanan15 2192597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought/made our own crib sheets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192594 Thu, 28 May 2015 18:58:54 +0000 FaithFertility 2192594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The quilt became her tummy time mat...lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192461 Thu, 28 May 2015 17:30:46 +0000 BSB 2192461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Thanks. I think I've decided to register or buy just the crib sheets and skip the set. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192455 Thu, 28 May 2015 17:26:00 +0000 Foodnerd81 2192455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just got sheets. </p> <p>Now that she is older she does sleep with blankets in the crib, but we use either soft fleecy ones or thin muslin swaddled, depending on the temp. And half the time they don't stay on her anyway. Never had or needed a crib skirt or bumper. </p> <p>I would not bother registering for a set. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192443 Thu, 28 May 2015 17:11:01 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2192443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just registering for crib sheets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192440 Thu, 28 May 2015 17:07:16 +0000 HabesBabe 2192440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a set for C because our friend worked for CoCaLo and we got a really good discount... the quilt is currently sitting in the top cabinet above her closet. With H, we only registered for sheets and a crib skirt.</p> <p>We used C's bumpers as teething guards around the top of the crib when they started standing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192431 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:55:57 +0000 simplyfelicity 2192431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't buy a set because I knew we wouldn't use the bumper or comforter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192363 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:06:51 +0000 Ginabean3 2192363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only registered for crib sheets as well. Any blankets we got we used in the stroller. But now that DD is two, she will use the small crib blankies in her big girl bed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192353 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:04:04 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2192353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just registered for crib sheets. I had a crib skirt and rail guards made, but those tie on over the crib rail to prevent LO from biting the crib rails and weren't in the crib with her. We didn't even give her a lovey to sleep with until she was almost 10 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192352 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:03:39 +0000 MamaG 2192352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The quilt became wall art. It was displayed on the wall and never used. I took it down 3 years later when we redid her room to be a big girl room and sold the whole set. </p> <p>For #2, I did sheets and made my own crib skirt and called it done!</p> <p>Based on my experience, I wouldn't waste the money on a set. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192349 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:02:12 +0000 buttermilk 2192349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only registered for individual sheets in pretty patterns and some lightweight blankets. My friend also gifted us a beautiful baby quilt I had wanted, but we will just use it for decor and for tummy time until she is old enough to have it in the bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192347 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:01:46 +0000 Boogs 2192347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used it more for the car seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-crib-bedding-set#post-2192288 Thu, 28 May 2015 16:00:00 +0000 BSB 2192288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What did you do with the blanket? Does your LO just sleep on top of the blanket? </p> <p>I'm worried about safety and reducing the risk SIDS.</p> <p>I found this...</p> <p>According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), soft bedding in a crib – like blankets and pillows – increases of the risk of suffocation or sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Safe alternatives to blankets are sleepers, sleep sacks, and wearable blankets.</p> <p>I'm actually wondering if I need to register for a bedding set. Couldn't I just get/ask for a crib sheets? </p>
