Question from Sara
Hi Debra, I am expecting my baby in 1 month and I need to get a good crib mattress, and I have been reading alot on line, but still feel confused on what to get for my baby crib ( pacific rim ), I have read about different types of organic non-toxic mattress. I am worried that with no special cover to keep the vomit/ urine/ moisture away, that over time there would be problems with mold and other things in the mattress, I am not sure if the wool inside the mattress or the wool puddle pads will be enough to keep all the accidental spills away. Is there a special plastic cover that can be used to prevent this problem, but also will be safe and non-toxic. sorry for the long question, but I am not sure what is the best thing to do, I haven’t seen an organic mattress up close, but it looks like you can’t just wipe it like the regular mattress.
thanks for your help,

Since I have no personal, first hand experience with this, readers, could you answer these questions about natural crib mattresses?
