I was looking at mattress pads today for DS' new bed, which will be coming next month. They were all advertised as "generously padded", "extra thick", etc. I couldn't find any "regular" pads. I started wondering if these kinds of mattress pads are safe for a 20 month old. I was just worried about the pad being too thick since he sleeps on his stomach.
So, is this just advertising hype about the mattress pad description or should I keep looking? And does it matter after a certain point, anyway?
BTW, I bought a waterproof mattress cover, so he will definitely need a pad of some sort on top of it. I know I think about things too much, but just wanted to be safe!
