  1. Good information here. I like that you gave tips on choosing a mattress, this step is just as important as choosing a safe crib. If you want to go with the absolute safest option, an organic crib mattress is the way to go. While the cause of SIDS remains ultimately unknown, harmful chemicals in mattresses have been a speculated cause for many years, and natural mattresses eliminate this possibility, in addition to being better for the environment and overall health of your baby.
