  In actuality, crib bumper pads should never be used in the cribs of children under a year old, in addition, they can cause problems in children up to 2 years of age. They have been connected to cases of SIDS when children become trapped underneath the bumpers or against them, unable to pull themselves free. However, past the age of 1.5 years, this risk is greatly decreased.
  However, this only applies to traditional bumpers. There is a new form of bumpers, the mesh breathable crib bumper pads, that are safe to use in cribs after a child is just a few months old. 

  This can give you great peace of 

  mind when it comes to your little one.
  
  These organic mesh bumpers are usually made with materials such as bamboo and 

  cotton. These materials are safe for use even with babies who have sensitive skin, 

  making it easy for parents to relax. These materials are also easy to clean and are 

  not prone to holding bacteria in, even if they do absorb spills and other liquids. 

  A quick wash every once in a while will keep them smelling good and germ-free.
  For children that are under the area of bumper use, you should make sure that they 

  are carefully swaddled and that there are no blankets or padding that can get near

  their faces. This means that excess blankets, pillows, etc should never be in the crib. if they are too young for mesh bumpers, they are too young for anything else in their 

  crib. Simply dress them warmly, use a swaddle, or adjust the temperature in the room to make sure that they are kept as safe as possible.
