Baby Bedding Help

Hi All, I’m a first-time-mum-to-be and a massive over-thinker, so this probably doesn’t need to be as big a thing as I’m making it…. Anywho, I am due in October and we have decided we want the iCandy Peach 7 Travel Bundle for baby, and have gone for the Chicco Next To Me Essential Crib. Does anyone have recommendations for what bedding I should go for? I hadn’t even considered needing a mattress protector and fitted sheet, and I’m just so confused with all the dimensions! I can’t seem to find a straight answer online either. Can anyone suggest:
-Mattress Protector for iCandy Carrycot and Next To Me Essential crib
-Fitted Sheet for iCandy Carrycot and Next To Me Essential crib
Any suggestions would be super helpful. Thank you so much! x

I have the same travel system and cot and bought 2x waterproof sheets and fitted sheets for each.

In the next to me I’ve layered them waterproof/normal/waterproof/normal. It means if we have any accidents in the middle of the night I can just take the top two off and not have to faff around finding clean ones. I was going to do the same with the bassinet on the pram but ended up using one set of sheets in the Moses basket. So far we’ve not had any reason to change the waterproof sheet so maybe I was being over cautious. I’ve also used a large muslin over the top in both of them and this is what gets washed most often, unless something’s gone all the way through to the other sheets. I’ll pop all the links down below!

You’re very welcome. Oh another tip, create a baby wishlist on Amazon and add things to that and then add them to your basket from there - some things will be eligible for discount so it’s worth the extra step!
