Do I just need a fitted sheet for the mattress or do I need regular/flat sheet too?

    Fitted only.  Do not put loose blankets/sheets in the crib.  They are suffocation hazards.

    I really haven't seen the flat sheets sold anywhere. I just assumed they weren't really used. I could be wrong?

    Blankets? Really? How do you cover your baby?

    fitted sheet only

    we have never used blankets in the crib - after we were done swaddling, we started using sleep sacks (a wearable blanket)

    Crib sheets are usually fitted and should fit snugly over your mattress. We recently purchased a bamboo crib sheet which we absolutely love. It?s almost as soft as silk, and is made of breathable fabric (70 percent bamboo and 30 percent cotton). You?ll find this and other varieties to choose from at aBaby.com
