Before you purchase your bassinet pad, there are some things to keep in mind. Here are a few questions you can ask yourself in checklist style:

• Is the bassinet pad certified organic?
• Is the bassinet pad multifunctional, or strictly used for the bassinet?
• Have the reviews on this bassinet pad been favorable by other consumers?

A bassinet pad is something you can add quickly to your baby registry and shouldn't be too expensive. For that reason, it also makes an inexpensive baby shower gift as well.

In the formative years of your child's growth, these can be the most essential for their brain and body development. Today's sheets, mattresses, bedding, pillows, and baby products often contain many hazardous chemicals which have been used during production and still are present on the product. These chemicals could be pesticides, or the toxic plastic element phthalates could be present in the item. Pesticides and phthalates have been linked to many forms of cancer, as well as allergies and asthma. Avoiding these chemicals can have a positive effect on your baby, and certainly cannot hurt. Whenever possible with babies, going organic makes sense, provided the item is certified organic and meets your budget.
