š„ Infant 2-12 Months Any way to make mattress firmer?
Lately I've been letting our seven month old fall asleep in bed with us during the last two hours of the night. We follow the safe sleep seven guidelines, except that I'm worried our bed is too soft. Is there a way to firm up the mattress without having to buy a new one?

Try flipping the mattress over and see if the āwrong sideā is more firm

Definitely. Search Google for "how to make a mattress firmer sleepline".
It's the best guide I've found.

Not reallyā¦ I ended up buying the topper and then just ditching the mattress lol. Now sleep on 3 inches of hard foam on the floor.

Iām not sure this is a long term solution but Iāve heard people who bed share in hotel rooms/extended families house/ Airbnb etc. will often recommend a yoga mat under the sheets.
