This picture reminds me, if you are a new or expectant mom or know a new or expectant mom, clouds and stars crib sheets are the best thing you can get/buy for them. The sheets are two pieces and actually cover the entire mattress. The mattress sits in the bottom part of the sheet and the top part zips onto it. SIDS regulations require that the mattresses fit so tightly into the cribs that it's nearly impossible to change a crib sheet, especially in the middle of the night, especially when your baby is crying, especially if you use a bumper, etc. I have several adorable crib sheets from PBK with little birds and owls on them. I haven't used them since the first time they had to be washed, which was approximately 15 minutes after I placed her in her crib for the first time. I have a normal mattress pad on the mattress, but I put waterproof flannel sheeting (also called rubberized sheeting) under the zipper top of the sheet so I don't have to change the mattress pad either, I just change out the waterproof flannel sheeting. You can but waterproof flannel sheeting at any full service fabric store, but call first to make sure they have it. In the Raleigh area, JoAnn's is the place to go. BTW, it's the same stuff they use to make the Carter's Keep Me Dry pads, it's just sold by the yard so you can fit the whole crib.
