My 4 week old son slept very well when he falls asleep on my chest, but the second I would put him down, he'd start grunting and straining. And I don't mean the normal little grunts, strains, and other noises that babies make, I'm talking about his face turning red and very loud grunts. This would occur every 5-10 minutes and made sleeping in the same room as him impossible.
I highly suspected acid reflux that was bothering him, so I took him to our pedi and she confirmed it. It wasn't a severe case, but it was enough that he (and we) didn't sleep very well. I tried elevating his bassinet but could only effectively get it up to 10 degrees, but doctors recommend 30 degrees.
It was impossible to get the bassinet inclined to 30 degrees and not have the little guys slide all the way to the bottom. And he would be crooked as well. I looked everywhere for a solution and even contemplated buying an AR Pillow (a big wedge and a harness) but it was very expensive (over $90).
I stumbled upon this sleeper and immediately ran out to the store to buy it. It snapped together very easily - only took my wife and I about 5 minutes. We washed the removable cover and were ready to test it out.
It's only been one day but what a difference! He's SOOOO much quieter, I don't even know where to begin. Just knowing that he's not straining and grunting like before makes me so happy! I almost cry just thinking about how much better he seems to be sleeping. Poor little guy, all those days, where he had to suffer through the acid reflux.
It's the perfect height to be placed next to the bed so you can just take a peek at night to see how the little bugger's doing. It's collapsible and very portable so we can bring it downstairs as well.
In summary, I don't know why there aren't more product like this out there. It's made my baby so much happier and I would've gladly paid $1000 for this if I had to. It's difficult to see your little one suffer. Thank you, Fisher Price!!
If you know (or suspect) that your baby might have reflux problems, you absolutely owe it to them to try this bed. For us, it was a lifesaver.
We noticed that our son hated being laid down on a flat surface ... this would lead to almost instant crying, red face, screaming, etc. What we didn't know (but suspected) was that he was suffering from severe reflux - and being put in a flat bassinet wasn't helping at all. From the day we brought this home, our son was a changed baby. He immediately loved it, was much happier about sleeping (since it wasn't associated with pain anymore), napping, resting, etc. We've been using this as his primary bed now for almost four months and he still absolutely loves it.
As a bonus, it makes for a great travel bed (extremely easy to fold up and take it with you), takes no more than 10 minutes to assemble, and machine washes just fine!
