For our babies, we would want them to get the best comfort wherever they may be sleeping like portacots. This includes placing additional foams, mattresses and pillows to get that soft sleeping position that babies are bound to love.

But while the intent is good, they can also be a threat. Babies do not have the same strength that adults may have and just in case, suffocation once these additional mattresses fall on them unknowingly.

Association executive director Tim Wain said he was alarmed by the findings of a Monash University Accident Research Centre study that suggested one in three people used additional padding with their portacots, unaware of the dangers to children.

“When you apply an additional mattress … it creates a gap that the child can roll into and because the sides of the portacot are flexible they can’t lift themselves out and suffocate,” he said.

Bean bags are desired by people who want more comfort than the usual bulky furniture in their homes. Similar to pillows for some, the flexibility of their use anywhere in homes these days is apparent especially for people who want to find a suitable position that they find comfortable.

Bean bags are made from various materials but are mostly non reactive to the human body. Further, they are easy to clean. With a vacuum cleaner to do most of the cleaning, bean bags are known not to gather much dust due to their fabrics. Some even use outer covering to make sure that they don’t get dirty easily.

Besides, some bean bags use covers that can be washed at times. But overall, they are convenient especially if you are particular about the position you are lying in, whether it is on the bed or by the floor.
