What's that smell?
Word of the Day: Offgassing.
Definition from NASA's Molecular Desorption and Analysis Laboratory:
Offgassing is the release of chemicals from non-metallic substances under ambient or greater pressure conditions. Offgassing occurs continuously, but can be limited by the complete curing of polymeric material.
Definition from McMiller experience:
Noisome emissions emanating from all new baby gear. The current culprit being the Graco Pack n'Play purchased yesterday. Makes one wish there was a window that opened in the baby room.

When the smell begins to fade, I like to burn offgas-scented candles.
