Planning and setting up a nursery for your newborn is a wonderful experience, especially if you are a first-time parent. Admit it or not, the moment your doctor told you what you were having, your mind will wander to the perfect color scheme and the décor that will enhance your baby’s sleeping approach.
Your baby’s room doesn’t necessarily have to match the house. Forget the rules, and decorate the room based on what you think is best for your little bundle of joy.
Decorating a room, particularly in terms of selecting a color is not an easy process. When choosing paint color, make sure that you choose warm colors.
What’s trendy doesn’t mean it’s also conducive to sleep. Keep in mind that every color has different effects on the human mind and body, so you might want to consider this when decorating the nursery.
Warm colors, like red, orange, yellow and pink, can excite the mind, and invigorate the body. Although they can feel comfortable and welcoming, they don’t promote relaxation when it’s time for your baby to sleep. On the other hand, cold tones, such as blue, green, white, black, brown and gray, provide a sense of calmness on the mind and body. Dark shades make rooms feel big and at ease, although it can create a cheerless atmosphere when used too much. It’s best to combine it with warm and brighter colors.
See to it that your baby’s crib is safe – lose screws, not wobbly, or without objects that might injure your baby. The crib should contain a firm mattress. The bed must be free from too much pillows, blankets or even toys. These things might cover your baby’s face. This lowers the risk of accidents in the crib.
Consider setting up a foam wedge to your baby from turning over his stomach. You can also add a baby monitor, so you could hear him whenever you’re not beside him/her.
Remember to keep nursery safe, clean, and calming for your baby.
