MagnificentBaby News contains breaking news on baby care, organized into four categories for convenience: Medical News, Parenting News, Community News and All News.Sample news clip (from the Parenting News category):
"Flying internationally with an infant: what is the baby tax?":"Some friends of ours just flew with their 10-month-old daughter to Paris to visit her grandmother, and were stopped at the airline counter before boarding the plane and told they had to pay a $330 tax for the infant, who still needed to be held in arms."MagnificentBaby Knowledge contains in-depth articles on crucial subjects related to baby care.Sample excerpt from the article, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) --- Protect Your Baby Against It : In recent years, researchers pinpointed another major cause of this tragic syndrome: toxic gas from crib mattresses. These gases rise out of the mattress and form a layer on top of it, and the baby effectively lies in a shallow pool of gaseous poison.The concerned gases are derivatives of phosphine (PH3), arsine (AsH3)[4] and stibine (SbH3). They are generated when normally harmless household fungi, like scopulariopsis brevicaulis, start eating the fire retardant chemicals put into the mattress by law (these chemicals are often based on antimony, phosphorus or arsenic). Future articles in MagnificentBaby Knowledge will cover baby sign language, the pros and cons of baby vegetarianism and how to design a nursery room.All the articles in MagnificentBaby Knowledge are original, proprietary content, unique to the Internet and other media forms.

Round Cribs - Pros and Cons
For years, when you thought of a baby's crib, you thought of the rectangle mattress, the one that is about 52" x 28".
That might be about to change.
One of the newer items for the nursery is the round crib.
The mattress for this crib is a 42" round circle.
This has both advantages over the standard rectangle crib, as well as disadvantages.
Round cribs are unique and make a bold statement in the nursery.
Being a bit smaller, they take up less room and being round, and can easily fit into the middle of the room allowing for more use of wall space.
They also do not have any sharp corners to run into in the middle of the night.
