Has anyone tried the non-toxic crib mattresses from Naturepedic? I have been reading a ton of literature about possible toxins in crib mattresses and am worried that it may be contributing to my daughter's eczema. I noticed a pattern. She only began getting the rash when she was put in her crib (around 3 months). I changed over to only cotton sheets and bumper, thinking maybe it was polyester, but she still gets the rash. It is horrible on her cheeks when she wakes up, but fades during the day when she's up and playing and away from the crib. I've been putting her in her playpen to sleep now and the rash is going away. I have ordered a cotton mattress from naturepedic and was wondering if anyone else has purchased one and what their experience has been.
