				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   |

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   |

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. |
