I'm now 38 weeks pg, anxiously awaiting the arrival of my first after years of infertility and treatment.
We have very little spare money to buy baby things but friends and family have been really generous and given us a second hand pram, Moses basket and cot.
In one of my more anxious moments I went out and got a new matress for the Moses basket. I got home ripped the packaging open on the sheets and matress only to realise that I've got the wrong size - it's a few cm to long for the Moses basket. It fits width ways. It wasn't cheap to buy - I wanted a decent matress. Mothercare won't let me return the matress and sheets now they are open.
Is it safe to have a slightly to long matress? it's not completely flat at the head end, curls up just slightly. Or, AIBU and I should to buy a new matress? We really don't have much money right now - Im stressed out by this - don't want to risk my precious baby, but can't afford another matress.
Sorry for the long post. I'm talking to my medical providers about my anxiety. Just need the sodding matress issue to be resolved.
