Gender Neutral And Baby Boy Bedding

By Darren Hartley


Parents who are planning to be surprised by the gender of their baby must design a nursery that works for either a boy or a girl. They should start with a theme and color palette, then select furniture and accessories, including gender neutral baby bedding, to round out the space.

Cohesiveness and completeness are the objectives for the selection of a nursery theme. For a gender neutral baby bedding, animals, sea life and the alphabet are good theme choices. The gender neutral baby bedding that best fits the chosen theme are then selected.

Anchoring a theme around a particular color can also be a consideration. Yellow, gray or green are the best colors for a gender neutral nursery. For parents who want to give the room a bolder look, shades of red or orange may be the color anchors. The gender neutral baby bedding in shades of the chosen color are then selected.

To keep the baby safe and comfortable in his nursery, the right baby boy bedding sets must be chosen, assuming that the baby turns out to be a boy. Babies do not have the ability for body temperature regulation. Because of this, parents should make sure their baby is not too hot and not too cold during the times he spends sleeping in his crib.

Between 16C and 20C is the ideal room temperature for a baby. A male baby boy should be in baby boy bedding sets that include a cotton sleep suit or a cotton vest in higher temperatures and in cotton flannel sheets, on top of which is another sheet and a cotton cellular blanket layer in lower temperatures.

For male babies less than a year, pillows, quilts or duvets must not be part of their baby boy bedding sets. Their heads must always be left uncovered. The baby must be placed feet to foot in his cot, i.e., his feet must be at the foot of the cot.
