Bednest - where to buy fitted sheets?

Hi,

I've hired a bed nest which is due to be delivered a few weeks prior to my due date. Has anyone got any recommendations for where to buy fitted sheets, flat sheets and blankets that are the right size for the bednest? Would normal blankets for cots/moses baskets be an okay size for the bednest?

Thanks very much.

Looks like the mattress is Length 820mm, width 370mm, thickness 40mm so crib sheets may do? eg these john lewis ones are Min: 36 x 84cm / Max: 41 x 90cm
I wouldn't have thought the 2cm on minimum length would matter too much.

We are hiring one too but got a bundle that includes two sheets, I'll probably get crib sheets as well, and if baby isn't early hopefully I'll have time to try them out and take them back if necessary. I am not too fussed about finding a blanket to fit, I've bought a swaddle thing for the first month or so then we'll probably move onto a sleeping bag.

Try here - www.bednest.com/Shop - there's a few to choose from, all made to fit the Bednest mattress. x

sorry I wanted to come back to this- we were in john lewis today where they sell the bednest and had one on display. The "pram/crib" sheets I linked to in my first post did technically fit, but they were a bit baggy, so we then opened a pack of Moses basket sheets (jersey ones) and they fit great and were nice and tight but without bending the mattress, probably because of the extra stretch from the jersey. The only last caveat is that I don't know if the mattress sold with it at JL is the same as we get when renting them, but it was about 4-5cm thick. I bought the sheets anyway, they were £11 for two.

Argh sorry I'm losing my mind. The ones that fit were "pram sheets" with dimensions given as min 33x71 and max 36x77cm.
The link in my first post doesn't work any more so I can't even check what I said originally! But the john lewis code is 31320213 and the link to them seems to be this
