Ergobaby
I'd like to start by saying what a great product, there's nothing similar in the market right now. There are some really great features of this sleeping bag that make it better than any other sleeping bags currently on the market. We love the removable swaddle insert, as our son is 6 months old we used the arms out swaddle around his middle over the top of the sleeping, I wish we had tried it earlier as this would be perfect for a newborn, to swaddle both arms within the sleeping bag to make baby feel secure and safe. Saying that Joey did fall asleep a lot faster with the swaddle insert fitted around body and did sleep for a longer length of time.
We loved the adjustable straps of the sleeping bag as its so much easier to get on and off by just un-popping the adjustable strap rather than pulling baby's
If not, meet baby Matilda (aka Tilly) and her incredible Mum, Amy.
‘’Matilda was breech for most of my third trimester, which is what lead to problem. When she was born they discovered that her hips 'clicked' when manipulated. An ultrasound at 6 weeks of age confirmed that both hips were affected, and she was diagnosed with bi-lateral hip dysplasia. Tilly was placed in to a Pavlik Harness when she was 8 weeks which she has to wear for 3 months. The harness holds her hips into the correct position while they develop. She has to wear it 24/7, and we have to ensure that her legs stay in an M Shape (knees up with the legs apart which helps the hips to stay aligned with the joint) as much as possible.’’
Amanda Peters, Maternity Practitioner believes all babies should feed elevated with their head higher than their tummy, regardless of colic, reflux or any other feeding issues. Tummy to tummy positioning ensures good bonding and helps with a better latch. Babies do get heavy whilst feeding and your arms get tired, so whether breast or bottle suits, let a feeding pillow take the strain!

Little Lexi using the Elephant Swaddler + Sleeping Bag Set''Ergo have not only made a beautiful product with cute designs, but have also combined two sleep products into one for ease and longevity!

As a prenatal nutritionist, I felt confident about my knowledge of what to eat during my first pregnancy and excited to put it into practice to nourish my growing babe. I was much less confident when it came to what I ‘should and shouldn’t be doing’ physically though. I spent my fair share of time on Dr.Google, reading different things about heart rate limitations, lying on my back, inversions and other restrictions put on pregnant women. Just like the nutritional advice found on the internet, the contradictory advice only confused me further.
Turning to a trusted source, I asked one of my favorite fitness instructors who is thoroughly trained in prenatal fitness. She gave me the best advice I could have received: just listen to your body. It was exactly what I needed to hear and it made so much sense, because it’s the exact same approach I take with nutrition. I understood clearly that my body

Some of us, however, have a baby who cries too frequently or too long and who is difficult to soothe despite all of our best efforts. As parents, we are designed to react strongly to our baby’s crying. We instinctively know that when babies cry, it means something is wrong with the baby that needs to be addressed. Being unable to find the root cause of the crying can create doubts of our parenting skills and create tremendous stress and frustration. A baby’s prolonged and incessant crying can unfortunately even lead some parents to perceive the baby’s crying to be manipulative and in the worst cases this belief can lead to violent outbursts from the parents. Shaken Baby Syndrome, a potential result from such outbursts, can tragically cause irreparable damage to the baby’s brain1.
In the Western world, we live in a culture that highly values independence. Some parents expect newborns to begin learning
