When You Put a Sheet Over Your Head for Halloween, Are You a Ghost Or a Mattress Cover?

Are you round or square?

1. dust mite mattress cover, do you think they are worth it? I'm allergic to dust mite poop?

Hey gurl....since the mites and their business come from the mattress, you probably do need the dust mite mattress cover....I would not get one off Ebay though. It does sound like your doctor gets a cut off every one they sell. Go someplace he did not recommend, hahaa.

2. Do you use a mattress cover/pad on crib mattresses?

I always have. Mainly ecause alot of crb mattresses are waterproof, so they just seem like they are not real comfortable to sleepon. Mattress covers give a little padding, sbut no enough to be a danger to baby. Just make sure it fits snuggly &that crib sheets fits over it properly.

3. Where can I buy a plastic mattress cover to protect my daughter's bed while potty training?

I got a great pad from Toys R Us. It's not plastic but it's a water repellent. It has a decorative design and it has worked great!

4. Do you think a second mattress cover would help?

Sleep on the top???

5. I bought a mattress cover today from target, and it looks like there is blood on it?

Ya you probably should not have washed. You can try to take back. The worst is they will say no. I doubt it was blood though.

6. can you clean a goose down mattress cover at home? or it has to be taken to the cleaners.?

You can wash it at home if your washing machine's capacity is large enough to handle it (it's weight will increase immensely when thoroughly saturated). Otherwise, take it to the laundromat and use the large capacity machine. Another option would be to take it to a professional laundry and have them do it, but this would cost quite a bit more. As far as dry cleaning (and they do do laundry), down does not need to be dry cleaned unless covered in something other than cotton. Dry cleaning a down comforter or mattress cover is quite costly and usually unnecessary

7. I need a recommendation for a quality down comforter?

Try BED BATH AND BEYOND they have a chart... That will give you the correct fill and warmth rating... They also have money-saving coupons. Also, try BRYLANE.COM and OVERSTOCK.COM.... You might also want to consider getting a heated temp. control mattress cover to heat up the bed.... Though we do not get winters that cold I use heavy fleece sheets or flannel on the bed when it gets COLD! Also, heavier thread count sheets are warmer than lesser thread counts AND they last longer..! * I have a heated throw blanket by SUNBEAM that I use in my recliner in the winter. It was around $30... Stay warm....Good luck

8. Did anyone else buy a babesafe crib mattress cover because you are terrified of SIDS?

This is just my opinion. I see a lot of "SIDS" cases. As long as your baby's lungs are matured, you do not put him face down. or kill a child by placing a pillow or blanket over it, it is highly unlikely. Most cases are people who kill their children. It is hard to prove.

9. How can I treat hereditary bedwetting?

I won't take a stance on whether bed-wetting is hereditary or not, but there are a few ways to address it:Conditioning: A bed-wetting alarm will wake you when it senses moisture. This will not only stop you from wetting, but also condition your mind and body to awaken when it's time to urinate.Scheduling: Pay attention to when the accidents happen. You'll likely see a pattern emerge. Set an alarm for just before that time each night, so you can get up and use the toilet.Controlling fluid intake: I'm not sure how effective this is, since no matter how little you drink, you'll have to urinate at some point in eight hours of sleep. But it may help.Containment: Until you get things under control, protect your clothing, bedding, and mattress with a diaper. You may not like it, but it's a LOT better than waking up in a wet bed and clothes. Cloth diapers and separate plastic pants are best for bed-wetters-especially side-sleepers-and, after an initial outlay of money, will cost less than disposables.Protection: Regardless of the route you take, you should get an absorbent bed pad and a waterproof cover mattress cover. That's a no-brainer. Best of luck to you, my friend!-DougHow can I treat hereditary bedwetting?
