Sealy Natural Cotton Crib Mattress Pad

I searched high and low for a mattress pad that did not contain any plastics or waterproof treatment. I do NOT want my babies to breathe chemicals all night while they sleep. And frankly, since every crib mattress is covered in plastic, what is the point of a waterproof pad anyway? We have gone to great lengths here to keep all of these chemicals away from our babies including a special cover for the mattress (to keep off-gasses away) and a wonderful, thick wool topper, which is what I wanted to cover. We just slip some wool puddle-pads in between the topper and the mattress pad to keep the topper from getting wet and everything is fine. I highly recommend this product over ANY waterproof pad out there.

I searched far and wide for a crib mattress pad that doesn't have a vinyl backing. I have a waterproof naturpedic mattress so i don't necesarily need a waterproof pad. This one is really soft and thick so I think it would do a good job of absorbing any spills anyways. Have not used this yet since the little one hasn't yet arrived but I did wash it, it held up but i do notice a small tear in one of the seams on the side. That's why i gave it 4 starts instead of 5. But it's still worth it to me to not have the vinyl and plastic backing even if I have to replace it eventually. It did not shrink in the dryer and fits the mattress pretty well..I will probably order another soon

Put 2 of these on our registry before our first child was born. I was thrilled to receive them, and washed them both as soon as I got them. They shrunk. Badly.

This particular pad was of very poor quality for the price. It was extremely hard to stretch over the mattress (harder than crib sheets), and once I did get it on, it started to fall apart at the corners from the stress.

We realized after his birth that babies don't actually need a mattress pad, and just a fitted sheet works perfectly. About half the stuff on our registry fell under the title of "things you don't really need for a baby", and this was one of them.

I also went hunting for a crib pad that wasn't backed by crinkly plastic or vinyl, etc., because as other people note, most mattresses are "waterproof" as is. Crib mattresses are also very firm and flat. This cotton pad adds a nice layer of softness without being too pillowy. It fit well. Ingeo, the fill (made from corn), is a bioplastic or biodegradable plastic, as Wikipedia states. If you are hell-bent there be no plastic or bioplastics in your pad, this may not be for you. But I will drive myself batty if I try to get rid of every plastic-related product in the house!
