Why you need a Baby Safe Sleeper

Do you find yourself constantly waking up in the middle of the night to make sure your baby is fine in his crib? You are not alone, many parents experience this problem and some wake up to find that their babies have flipped over with the blanket covering their face. This is not good, because your baby may end up being suffocated. Baby Safe Sleepers have changed all this and now you can sleep peacefully knowing that your baby is comfortable and safe, whatever age they may be.

How Does The Baby Safe Sleeper Work?

It depends upn the age of your baby. For very young babies, this accessory holds your baby in the back lying position in your vehicle, chair, sofa, crib or bed. It comes in form of a pad complete with straps to secure it on the underlying structure. You place the baby on the sleeper then maybe strap him in to prevent movement. The whole setup is safe and comfortable for the baby and it allows for easy arm and leg movement.
When the limbs are restrained, your child is prevented from rolling over and lying in the prone position that is dangerous. You will also prevent the child’s limb from getting caught in the slats or bumping their heads against the sides of the crib.
Design of the Safe Sleeper
The baby safe sleeper is designed with the safety of your baby in mind. The sleeper comes with a pillow that is tucked far from the reach of your baby. This is ideal for elevating the head of the child when he is asleep to prevent the danger of reflux.

For very young babies, the Baby Safe Sleeper looks a bit like a mini-bed with sides, so it can be placed on the bed with you.

For older babies, it’s a device that attaches underneath the mattress and has an adjustable flap to stop your baby from rolling out of bed. These sleepers also comes with an adjustable blanket that you clip on either side of the bed. This blanket can extend to the neck of the baby thus preventing him from pulling it over his face.
The restraining straps, pillow and blanket allow your baby to sleep comfortably without any risk of suffocation that can result from loose bedding. Research has linked the prone sleeping position to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and many experts advise parents to put their children on their backs when they go to sleep. Using the safe sleeper makes sure that the baby is maintained in a safe position and keeps them stationary in the center of the bed until morning.
Safe sleepers for babies come in a wide range of colors, designs and fabrics. Make sure you select the correct size for the baby and a color that will match the décor of your nursery. The fabric used to manufacture the sleeper needs to be long lasting to last you some years.

How Convenient is The Safe Sleeper?
Whether you are travelling, sitting in the dining room or in your bedroom, the portable baby safe sleeper is ideal for you. The sleeper provides a safe sleeping or resting environment on a sofa, car chair, bed or crib.
Instead of looking for a pillow or a makeshift support to prop your baby up, use the sleeper. Use the sleeper when visiting your friends, family, or even when hosting a party.
If you are looking for a practical, safe addition to your home nursery and baby care environment, the baby safe sleeper is the best choice for you!

Baby Sleepers for a smile on your Baby’s Face!

Let’s face it, your baby loves to be pampered and you love to dish out the love.  We all do!  Keep baby snug and feeling contented when asleep is made easier with the use of the various kinds of baby sleepers.

A baby needs his or her body to be at a nice temperature and nice and snug in order to get a good sleep.  Most sleepers will come with either stud fasteners or a zipper.  These allow for fast changing of your baby without waking them up too much.  You can even use the quick open access to apply cream in the night without making your baby cold.

 

Which baby sleepers to choose?

Well there are quite a few different types to think about, and most of them come in a wide array of styles and colors to suit your tastes.  As an alternative you might want to take a look at infant sleeper gowns that are low in cost and normally have features that include the likes of expandable neck openings that make dressing your baby nice and easy.  Baby sleeper gowns also have open bottoms that are elasticated or can be tied to make night time changing easy and effort-free to avoid waking your baby.

Look for baby sleepers that really suit your baby, sleepers such as “newborn sleepers”.  Features like front snap closure  and machine washable are certainly features you shouldn’t do without if you want a peaceful night’s sleep and are trying to put baby to sleep with any degree of success!  All sleepers will come with a guide to the desired sizing, for example “newborn” or 6-9 months.

 

Quick tip!  You may well want to look at a sleeper that is slightly bigger than the baby’s current weight. They quickly grow out of clothing and you will be pleased that you too this route! Even though infant clothing can be quite cheap, it pays to save every penny when your baby is growing!

 

The baby sleepers you are considering may well come with a zipper and foot enclosures to keep feet warm when asleep.  Really you may want to try a few different types if you are not sure.  Some are loose or ordinary fitting, whereas you can get others that are body-hugging which may aide with keeping the baby feeling snug when they are not being swaddled.  The zippers make opening easier, and are really are just a personal preference.
