Thanks - picked one up today in Mothercare. Although it's not actually a mattress topper, it's called a 'quilted mattress protector'. Think I might add the Ikea one underneath!
Hi DubaiCat, we got ours at Ikea, it is something that goes over the mattress and under the sheet, makes it all a bit softer. Its not overly thick but does give some extra padding.
I definitely saw mattress toppers for cots in Dubai during my search for a travel cot mattress, but cannot remember where :( Most probably toys r us or mothercare, but I'm really not sure.
Are we thinking of the same thing? The mattress topper I'm thinking of attaches to the mattress and goes under the fitted sheet - is that what you're thinking of? he's 7 months so too small for a duvet but I thought a mattress topper under the sheet would be OK.
How old is your DS? We were on holiday during Christmas and LO slept with us in the hotel. He really liked the soft duvet so I bought him a small one for his cot to make his bed softer. But I think comforters shouldn't be used for kids under 1.
While I was home I saw a mattress topper to fit a cot bed in John Lewis. Rather stupidly I didn't buy it, but now I wish I had! Has anyone seen anything similar over here? The mattress in the cot is a bit firm and I think DS might be a bit more comfortable (read: feel more like he's in our bed) if I get one.
