That’s why you should exercise extreme caution when using these padded loungers to co-sleep with. New recommendations state that padded loungers or nests should never be used unsupervised, and since you are asleep (hopefully) while co-sleeping, that means baby is essentially unsupervised. Not to mention how many babies rolled out of the nests and fell from a bed… Baby could accidentally roll over or turn to the side and suffocate on the raised sides of the lounger. They gave babies a spot to snuggle into while mom and dad caught some much-needed shut eye.īut a couple of years back, the CPSC, the AAP, and Health Canada all came out and said that using any type of baby lounger in an unsupervised way is inherently dangerous.

When babies are born, they are accustomed to the comfortable, cradling support of the womb. But which is best?įor newborns and small babies, I recommend the Snuggle Me Organic because it helps cradle the baby so that she feels safe and comfortable. Both create a sweet little nest to keep your baby content while they hang out. Two of the most popular baby loungers are the Snuggle Me Organic and the DockATot. The overall design of baby loungers or nests are great at keeping baby calm and happy. They give baby a cozy spot to lay and play or rest. Okay, so not all of us are into that sort of thing, but baby loungers can be tons of help during the first few months. We roll our baby onto his side and put his back against the “dock” and he stays in that position all night.You aren’t a cool, modern parent until you’ve posted the obligatory photo of your baby in a nest pillow on your Instagram or Facebook. The sides of the “dock” are very firm to prevent adults or kids from rolling on to baby and they’re great at keeping kids snug inside while they sleep. It’s great to put between adults in a co-sleeping situation and can be packed away for trips to visit family or friends (transforming any bed into a family bed that’s safe). Not only is the DoctATot bed portable - it transforms any surface into a safe, comfortable bed - but, it’s also a great product for secure, comfortable play as your child ages.Įssentially, the company claims that the little beds mimic the womb and are a comfortable, secure place without buckles, straps and other “extras”. The portable, lightweight bed (for use from age 0-36 months) seemed like something that could have benefited us with our first born (Jack had colic and co-slept with us for the first few months). When we first found DockATot we were intrigued. We’re always on the hunt for products that make family travel easier and more accessible. ![]()
