18 Lovely Baby Cribs for Your Little One ...

When you find out you're going to have a baby, looking at cribs naturally takes up a good bit of time. There are options for every budget, which is great because you're sure to find the one that suits your needs and finances. While all of the cribs on this list are lovely, keep in mind that the American Academy of Pediatrics doesn't recommend putting your baby to sleep in a crib with a bumper, pillows, stuffed animals or thick blankets. Go ahead and pose your baby for photos with all the extras, but be sure you remove them before leaving your little one to sleep in the crib.
