IKEA launches a "une-mattress" very useful for colecho

When it comes to schooling with the children there are many different solutions, according to each family's decision and depending on the available space or the size of the beds or the crib. On many occasions it is decided to join the bed of the couple a crib or another bed. This can be dangerous for the baby if it is not done properly, and it is recommended that the two mattresses are at the same height and there are no spaces where the baby can get trapped and suffocate.

The issue of height is solved by placing the cradle at the same height as the bed and, if it is another bed, looking for one whose total height is the same as the total height of our bed (or adding elements under the legs that raise the lower bed). The issue of the separation between the mattresses is different and these days we have known a novelty of IKEA, whose mission is to join two mattresses with two equal beds, which could be very useful for families who practice colecho at home.

Useful if mattresses tend to separate

There are solutions that, due to the weight of the mattress in the family bed and / or because the other bed is between the wall and the parents' bed, prevents the separation of the mattresses. There is division, but the mattresses are so close together, and at the same height, that the mentioned dangerous hole is not produced.

On other occasions, yes, there are times when the mattress of one of the beds does not pick up the mattress well and it has a bit of mobility, or it sleeps with the mattresses directly on the floor and, with a little force, the lighter mattress moves. For cases like this, by the time parents wake up realizing that the beds separate a few centimeters, This invention could be useful.

His name is Siggerud and it is a wedge that sits between two mattresses, covering the gap. The price is € 9.99 and the utility should be discussed because it seems to work best by placing under the sheets. If we put together a bed of 150 cm with one of 80, for example, to see where we find sheets so wide. In case of putting it above the sheets, we cover the hole but the same wedge generates new holes on each side of it. They are horizontal and seem much less dangerous than a vertical hole, but in case the two mattresses are held together, I would not buy it. Yes it seems like a good solution, as I said, when mattresses tend to separate a little.
