Safe T sleep/wedges

Just wondering what your thoughts are on these products??

I've got a safety sleep, and it rocks!!! Jacob is a "traveller" and travels up his cot, out of his blankies, and wakes. I also felt comfortable sleeping him on his side in it, and we have a perfectly round head. We stopped using it about 2 months ago, when he discovered how to undo it, and was standing up in his cot anyway. I will go back to it, and use safety pins to keep it shut when he goes to "big boy bed". i also found it great if we went anywhere, I could put him in a "big bed" and feel safe about it.

We love the safety sleep. Brilliant invention.

I'm a fan of the Safe-T-Sleep too. We got one for Ella when she moved into her cot because she was moving all over the show and getting limbs stuck in the bars. She slept heaps more soundly once she got used to wearing it.
We've recently re-employed it to stop her falling out of her big bed, and its just as effective!

I had a wedge and a safe-t sleep.
Didn't try the wedge at all but ended up using the safe-t sleep when Han was about 9 months old to stop her standing up in her cot... as she would stand up and scream and scream and scream... if she was secured then she just drifted off.

Phased it out at about 1 year old, but she still sleeps better if she has that "secure" feeling.

You just have to make sure you use them properly otherwise babe can get tangled (Some babies are just far too wriggly for them) but was a god send for me!!!

Maya was in a Safety Sleep from birth till about 9 or so months. Have bought them for the twins as well - they gave me peace of mind and seemed to help Maya settle more quickly so fingers crossed it will work fo rthe gremlins too.

Syd - I think I may have the same sort of thing...a three step swaddling blanket that fastens with valcro? they look like they rock and seem pretty secure!

I haven't bought a saftey sleep or wedge...if we need one we can consider it then.

Safe T Sleep, used it from 7 months for the same reason as Nikki, to secure the monkey and stop her standing up. Stopped around 13 months as she worked out how to wriggle out of it, didn't try a pin to secure it as she would probably have figured out how to undo that too

I think they are gimmics!! Paige got out of everything after 3 months. I tried both of them. (only cause Mum got given them so thought I would try).


A good wrap and swaddling is what I used successfully with Paige..calmed her down, kept her warm. Apparently makes them feel nice and secure and stops them scratching their faces too!

i have a saftey sleep but baby doesn't like it. I tried him in it for the first couple of nights but he wouldn't settle, so i took it out and he sleeps fine now. I think i will try it again when he's abit older and starts to roll around.
