Editorial Review: Product Description: The First Years Air-Flow Adjustable Sleeper Positioner The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that babies sleep on their side or back to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The Air-Flow Back Sleeper helps keep your baby in the proper sleeping position with two rounded frames that adjust with self-fastener strips to accommodate your growing baby. This product allows for maximum breathability and minimum heat buildup, while keeping baby comfortably in position throughout the night. Ventilated frames allow air to flow through cushion, and fabric design features a stars and moon theme in neutral styling to fit with any nursery decor. The size is adjustable and it's washable and dryable. Up to 6 months. Editorial Review: The Air Flow Sleep Positioner helps keep baby on her back or her side, the positions recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics to reduce the risk of SIDS. Two rounded frames providing support are hollow, allowing for the free flow of air. Adjust the self-fastener strips so that the positioner is just wide enough for baby to lie in. Place it in the crib, and lay baby down on her back or side, with the positioner placed below her arms. The soft fabric cover is comfortable and helps baby feel snug and secure. --Terri Shea Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Misleading Product DescriptionThe 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 ...

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 ...

Rating: - Unnecessary and less safeI didn't buy this; a friend lent it to me along with her Moses basket. I only tried the sleep positioner a few times, and then put it away. (The Moses basket was used till the baby outgrew it.) The reasons I didn't like it? Foam - even breathable - so close to the baby's face made me nervous. If he turned his head to the side, his face could be pressed against it, restricting his airflow. He also didn't seem to find it that comfortable. Once I discovered the velcro swaddling ... Read More Rating: - Great for treating flat head syndrome / plagiocephalyOur 5-month old's neurologist recommended to use a sleep positioner to help him sleep on the less-favored side of his head, allowing the head to round out. We have tried a few products, and this one works the best for keeping him in position without wiggling out of the positioner. The material is extremely breathable, so we are not worried about overheating. The wedges are adjustable with velcro and stay securely in position. They can be folded inwards to change the angle of the wedge's incline. ... Read More
