I bought this after realizing how paranoid I was going to be right after the birth. It's made me feel better knowing its there, and for the price it was worth getting.
Misleading Product Description (2010-04-28) : 1/5
The product description for this item is misleading. While the American Academy of Pediatrics *does* recommend placing your baby to sleep on his back, the AAP does *not* recommend using sleep positioners. Sleep positioners pose a suffocation hazard. Having your baby sleep on his back reduces the risk of SIDS; having him sleep with a sleep positioner only increases his risk of suffocation. The safest crib is a bare crib-- that means no stuffed animals, no loose blankets, and certainly no sleep positioners!
If rolled up towels don't work for you... (2010-04-04) : 3/5
I bought this out of desperation w/my fussy 5 week old who hates sleeping on her back in the bassinet so I tried to use this to prop her on her side. I have tried to use rolled up receiving blankets but they don't stay in place when she squirms around.
A lot of reviewers complained about the seam that the baby lays on and how it's too bumpy & uncomfortable to sleep on. They made it seem like there's a huge lump or something but in actuality, the seam is BARELY NOTICEABLE! especially if you've got your baby clothed & swaddled.
However, I do have some critcisms:
1) Awkward to place my baby in between the positioners w/o waking her up.
2) Must adjust positioners *BEFORE* placing baby in between the positioners and if you need to readjust, you can't do it while baby is in place -- not fun lifting baby in & out if you need to readjust for the perfect fit...
If everything is adjusted properly and you managed to get your baby in between w/o waking her, this positioner works great to provide firm support. I just wish it had some mechanism that allowed me to put baby down first and then slide the positioners to lock in place...
