More Sheets Than You Think You Need Ask any parent with a baby past the six-week mark how many cot sheets they wish they'd bought and the answer is almost always: more. A middle-of-the-night nappy leak, a bout of illness, or a particularly confident attempt at rolling with a full nappy means a sheet can go from freshly made to in the wash within a single day - sometimes before sunrise. Having enough sheets in rotation means the cot is always ready with a clean surface without a desperate 2 am hunt for a spare that isn't there. A fitted sheet that fits the mattress correctly is more than a comfort preference. A sheet that bunches, pulls up at the corners, or sits loosely creates an unsafe sleep surface for a young baby. Well-made fitted sheets with a deep corner band stay firmly on the mattress through a full night of movement - without needing to be retucked every morning. What to Look for in a Cot Fitted Sheet Softness, fit, and washability are the three things that matter most - and all three are worth verifying before you buy. Softness genuinely matters for newborns, whose skin is far more sensitive than adult skin and spends extended hours in contact with the sheet. Natural cotton and cotton jersey are the most popular choices for exactly this reason: breathable, gentle on delicate skin, and fabrics that become even softer with every wash rather than stiffening over time. A baby cot bedding set that comes in a twin pack is a practical investment from the start - one on the cot, one clean and ready in the drawer. At the stage when laundry runs daily anyway, having a rotation built into the purchase makes the whole routine easier to manage. The Transition to a Bigger Bed The move from cot to a child's first proper bed arrives faster than most parents expect - and the right bedding makes that transition feel like a genuine upgrade rather than an unsettling disruption. A kids' bedding set the child feels excited about gives them ownership of their new sleep space fr
