The baby's due any time and we've got a crib -- but not the U.S. mattress to fit it. Anyone have one they would sell or know where we can get one? Would hate to leave the baby on the floor Smile

Make friends with someone on a base or have a foam mattress cut to fit and covered.

It is not that expensive to get a foam mattress made and babies aren't heavy enough for a sprung mattress anyway.

check with Costco in Seoul, or order it on the Costco website for store delivery and see if they can deliver/transfer it to the Seoul stores. This implies you can get to the Seoul store.

If you don't wantto do that you can always take Ttompatz's suggestion Smile

That's a great idea about having the foam cut to fit. Thanks! Just one question -- where?

Any bedding shop should be able to do it or have it done for you. Then they can/will sew a cover onto the foam.

I had ours made at the market in Namun in Suwon. If you are down that way and need directions I can send them to you.

In Seoul you should be able to find a place in/near any of the street markets. Just look for a bedding shop or someone with a sewing machine.
