A vital component of the Amish community is the family, hearts joined in love for God and for one another. Parents treasure each child as a gift from the Lord, often raising seven or more children in the traditions of their Amish faith.

Crib — If you want to make your baby happy (and what parent doesn’t), you will want to get some Amish furniture baby will love.

Fashioned of the finest natural woods with the strictest traditional techniques, the Amish crib becomes a family heirloom to be passed on to generation after generation. The Amish craftsman employs mortise and tenon joinery in the construction of every solid wood baby crib to ensure that it is sturdy and will survive the daily wear and tear of its little occupant.

Many parents generally agree that foam baby crib mattresses are the way to go. You can choose from either a foam baby crib mattress, or a baby crib mattress that consists of coils.Another major safety feature of an Amish crib is that no harmful finishes are used. These baby-safe finishes include natural oil and water-based wood finishes and completely non-toxic tung oil and beeswax finish.

Amish cribs are available in a wide variety of furniture styles, including Mission, Traditional, Shaker, Sleigh, Spindle, and Cottage. Before purchasing a crib, other baby bedding options should be considered, such as a cradle, bassinet or a conversion or transition bed.

Lastly, when selecting the baby crib mattress that is right for the baby crib that you have selected, you may want to consider the overall quality and cost.

Resolved Question: More pregnancy and mother-in-law drama?
So a few weeks ago I posted a question about problems I am having with my mother-in-law; she wants to purchase a crib for us; but NOT the crib that I want the crib that SHE wants. Well, I thought I finally won when she went to the Amish Furniture store and found out that a crib would be $1300 and a tiny very tiny 3 drawer chest would be an additional $850 plus $250 for a hutch on top. She called one evening and said she wasn't sure if she wanted to spend that much money on a crib and it might cause problems later on when her other kids have kids if she doesn't get their kids the same things. So she said she might just give us like $1000 to purchase the crib that WE want. So I was overjoyed when she told me that. Well, tonight I called her to ask for ideas for a Christmas gift for her mom and while on the phone I asked if she was going to give us money or what for the crib because I have about 13 1/2 weeks (possibly less if I have to get a scheduled c-section) before our daughter is born; and I want a dresser in the house after the shower so I can put away clothes and blankets and all that good stuff and get ready for our little girl's birth. So I wrote her the following letter but I have not emailed it yet; what do you guys think? Does it sound okay? Dear (Mother-in-law name) I would really like to thank you for the offer to buy us a crib; however I feel like I am not being heard when I tell you what I want. Yes, the crib from the Amish store is nice however it is not what I want. Nor do I want to spend that much money for a dresser and the additional furniture I need for the nursery. I want to have a dresser and a changing table in the nursery right away. If I do not have a dresser where will I put the baby's clothes & her blankets? I have nothing for any of that and I can't see spending $800 for a tiny three drawer chest; it just doesn't make sense to me. Again I want to thank you for your offer to purchase a crib for our daughter but if you can't accept that I don't want the Amish furniture then I have to decline your offer. I hope that this doesn't upset you, but we have decided on the furniture that we want for our nursery and it is the Sorelle Sophia set that we found online. Both of us think that it will make a great bedroom set for our daughter and it is something she will have for life; plus we can purchase a three piece set for what the Amish crib would cost. This is the crib that we want and that our daughter will be getting. http://www.simplybabyfurniture.com/114379h6h8.html Iris- you brought up a good point, she also thinks I have to get an old fashioned wicker bassinet when I have registered for a pack 'n play and plan on having baby sleep in that in our room when we first bring her home. I told my husband again tonight he's just going to have to tell her to back off!! I know it's her first grandbaby but it's OUR first child! Djeter- I have told her numerous times, showed her printouts, etc. of what we want and it seems being friendly doesn't work so I am going to try a different approach. How am I being selfish? I think considering it is our first daughter that my husband and I should pick what we want for our baby. He doesn't want to spend that much money on furniture & I have shown him photos and not told him which crib was what and he picked the same crib as me. I think she is being selfish and taking away from this experience...it's our first baby and we should pick out what makes us happy. Just like she hates the name Rylee which is what we have decided on & every time I see her she is telling me names that SHE likes & I am like yeah thats nice; smile and go on because we have decided on the name & yet again this is our daughter so it should be our final decision on everything.
Resolved Question: Pregnant; and overbearing mother-in-law don't know what to do?
Ok so I kinda had this problem with my mother-in-law when planning the wedding; she took it on as her wedding and changed some stuff as far the decorations, etc. It annoyed me then but at least when the wedding was done I didn't have to deal with it anymore. Now that I am pregnant she is getting very very overbearing again and with the birth of the baby I am nervous that it is going to get worse. I love her dearly she is a great mother-in-law but at times she just drives me nuts. She has offered to buy the crib for us which is very kind of her but she is not really allowing me to pick the crib out...it is going to be what she wants. She wants to go to a local Amish store and have the crib custom built; which is all fine and great but then I am going to have to purchase the changing table, and dresser there so everything matches & the Amish do not make convertible cribs. I have a convertible crib picked out that I love and the matching changing table w/hutch, and dresser and it will cost around $1200 for the 4 pieces. I don't want to make her mad but at the same time this is my baby and it is my house and shouldn't I get what I want for the baby? What got me going about this is the crib I wanted was on sale for like $75 off on Cyber Monday and I told her about it thinking I could finally just get the crib I wanted but she was like No you don't want that one. If you have 5 kids you will never even convert it to a toddler bed; and I was like we plan on having 2 kids at most & she started going on about we have to have more than 2 kids blah blah blah. But sorry we decided we only want 2! This is a sticky situation because I am thankful she offered to help but I don't want to get something that I am unhappy with. Any thoughts? I was talking to my husband about this that night & today...his solution is to just tell her thanks but no thanks on buying the crib. Which coming from him I guess it would probably be easier on all of us since he is her son. I suggested having her purchase another big item like the stroller/car seat because those can be pricey too for a good one. I don't think she approves of the crib bedding that I have already purchased but yet again we (me & hubby) like it; it suits us and it is what we want. Oh, and I know when it's time for the delivery she probably isn't going to be the happiest b/c my hospital only allows 2 ppl in the delivery room & of course I want my husband, and my mom...not her! I am waiting on that fight though until the day of the the delivery.
