Just to let you know, I have an 8th month old baby, and the mattress i got is not a very good one. The name brand is sealy. To tell you the truth, I get it. I paid 125.00 dollars for a frim mattress and it sinks in the middle. My baby is not that heavy and we haven’t used the mattress for that long. so be very care full and do not pay extra for just the name brand.

You need to look for firmness in a mattress for a newborn. Anything too soft is a safety hazard.
