So the time has finally come. Those long 9 months are over and now its time to shop for your newborn. While choosing baby blankets may seem like a very simple thing, most people want the best for their children, so it is not a bad a idea to know more about the differences between products before you buy. One major difference between blankets is the type of fabric that they are made out of. Blankets are made with a variety of different fabrics, and these fabrics all of distinct properties, advantages and disadvantages.
Fleece Blankets
Baby Crib Graco
Fleece is a synthetic fabric that is 100% polyester. Fleece is special because it has a special design that allows moisture transfer to occur very effectively through the fabric. This helps to keep the moisture evaporating, so that the fabric stays dry and retains its insulation. This also means that you don't have to sacrifice breathability for warmth - with fleece, you get both. Fleece is also lightweight, stain-resistant, and easy to care for.
Cotton Blankets
Cotton is an affordable fabric made from the seeds of the cotton plant which is breathable, cool and soft. Cotton is strong and resistant to wear and tear. It is also resistant to heat, so it can be ironed or sterilized without harm. Finally it is extremely absorbent, being able to hold up to 27 times its weight in water at a time, so if it is very hot or cold, you may want to chose a different fabric than cotton.
Flannel Blankets
Flannel is a fabric made with a mixture of cotton and silk thought to be of Welsh origin. Flannels usually have interesting, colorful designs. Because many varieties are made with more cotton than silk, the same advantages and disadvantages of cotton fabric also apply to flannel. Of course, there is no right answer.
Whatever kind of blanket you chose to buy, you will be making the best choice for you and your baby.
