I know it would be solely for looks. For me not for my baby.He doesn't care that his blanket doesn't match his pillow cover or his sheet. Or that he doesn't have a proper bumper.Just sometimes I think it would look lovely. They cost a lot here and its not important and I know Iwont buy this lovely bedding bale in the end. But sometimes I just crave things I don't need...

Listen, I got my baby a nice new cute matchy crib set.

I felt so guilty that he was getting his siblings' toys, his siblings stroller, his brothers' outfits, that I just couldn't put him into the sheets and blankets that were thrown up and pooped on by his siblings. I needed to do it for myself that at least when he goes to sleep he was in something that was just for him.

I ended up buying one, but not because it was pretty or because I wanted one. My dd moved alot in her crib (even as a newborn) and she kept banging herself on the bars and waking up, I was also nervous that she would get stuck. Spoke to my pediatrician (generally bumpers are not recommended these days because of SIDS) and he agreed we should get a bumper in this situation. Went to the local frum baby store (couldn't find a bumper in the big stores) and asked her for the cheapest bumper she had. The separate bumpers were quite pricey, but she offered me a crib set in a weird/ loudish print for much cheaper. The bumper was a grass green and the blanket had bright "watercolor" flowers on it. I used the bumper but not the blanket (she had a soft blanket that she was using). When she got older (after the bumper had come out) she found the blanket and decided she liked it, so on occasion she would ask to use it (with her soft one). I realized it was actually a very pretty blanket, I think the problem was when it was next to the green it looked almost garish.

Got one on marshalls for the same price I would've paid for plain sheet + bumper (which I needed b/c ds likes to sleep pressed against side). great deal, so worth it!
