Opinions on Moses basket / crib mattress

[livsmum4]

Hello

We have been very lucky and have been given a Moses basket and a crib for lo due in feb. Iv never seen a crib before but it's like a Moses basket small but looks more like acot. I was not sure whether i need to change the mattress on the Moses basket - we are keeping it down stairs for day use , and also the crib mattress has a removable washable cover. I no cot mattresses have links to cot death I just was unsure on the smaller thinner mattresses?? Any opinions welcome? X

I always changed mine. They were around a tenner to buy a new one so I didn't think twice.

I got a crib and moses basket too and changed both think moses one was 9 and crib one 12 from mothercare

Oh fab thanks ladies. Are they all just a standard size do you know or wil I need to find out the make and find the exact matching one? Thanks

Measure the one you've got then look for it online - there are companies that sell any size. If you do know the make it might make it easier though.
