I just got a new mattress a couple of days ago and DS has already stained it with poo. I got the stains out with oxi clean but Im going to get a water proof mattress pad for underneath the sheets to prevent future staining. Any recommendations on what brand I should get?

I got Naturpedic. It's more expensive but not filled with harmful chemicals and very safe for baby. Make sure your mattress pad doesn't have any PVC or Vinyl- google around and see that those materials are harmful. Good luck!!!

check out things like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Sofnit-Washable-Underpad-Toplayer-Absorbency/dp/B000FEGUFA/ref=pd_sim_hpc_2

they are washable and can be used over and over again!
