This sort of anecdotal science is however NOT evidence that a product or practice is safe. I’m in a lot of mom groups online and I frequently see people say we did it and my child is fine, which they apparently think is evidence that a product, practice, etc. I’m no fan of mommy shaming but I am a fan of education and the phrase “know better, do better”.

We love our baby nest so much, we are going to try the snake pillow to help with Kalei's transition out of our bed! Kili is even sleeping it her Baby Nest unswaddled now! We're about a month in and couldn't be happier. She had more space to move and roll over and could still use it to play and lounge in. I continued to put Kili in the Baby Nest like we did with the Dock-a-Tot, swaddled, and she loved it. We have had zero issues with the transition. The one nice thing with having the extra pad is I can easily swap it out if I do have to wash the pad. To save myself from washing it all the time (since Kili still spits up a lot).I usually cover it with a blanket. It's also easy to wash - I threw everything in the washer and drier! I just followed their directions it came with. We don't have carpet in our house so I like the extra padding for Kili when she's on the floor. I opted for this beautiful palm print with the extra pad. They have tons of cute designs and accessories. For less than half the price, I was able to get the Baby Nest from Bab圜o Design with shipping! Their nests are similar to the Dock-a-Tot but at a much more affordable price. The shop, Bab圜o Design has their version of the baby sleeper. Shout out to Casey from Little Ca圜am who told me about the Baby Nest that she bought for son from Etsy. Their website says the Deluxe can be used until 9 months but she was starting to fuss and we had to keep it unclipped. Fast forward again 5 months and Kili has almost outgrown the Dock-a-Tot. I am a BELIEVER! You'll probably hear that a lot as I continue these blog posts. I don't know if it's Kili or if it was the Dock-a-Tot but since Day 1 she was 1000000000 times better sleeper than Kalei. I was determined to have a baby that could sleep on their own because there is no room in our king size bed for another little body. We got rid of most of our baby stuff but I knew that was my one must have item. Never thought I'd be co-sleeping with a baby but survival mode kicked in and since I was going back to work, I had to so I could get some sleep! I felt like I had tried everything under the sun except the Dock-a-Tot, which I learned about when Kalei was over a year old.After investing so much money in failed attempts, I gave up with getting Kalei in his own bed.I couldn't imagine paying for a Dock-a-Tot to have it not work.įast forward to the era of Kalei AND Kili.I wanted only one thing when we found out we were pregnant with Kili. Sleeping through the night didn't happen until he was almost 2 years old and that was when he slept in bed with us. The only way we found he slept well was in the baby carrier so I wore him 24/7. He hated being swaddled (trust me.we tried everything out there). Kalei is what my google research termed - TERRIBLE SLEEPER. I never pulled all nighters in college and going out to party is a lot different than being up with a newborn. When we brought Kalei home 3.5 years ago, I quickly learned about sleep deprivation. I also enjoy going to bed early - crazy.I know. I enjoy waking up early and being productive in the morning so I have the afternoon to relax. I've always been one of those "early to bed, early to rise" type of people. I started to get a lot of questions about products I use for Kili and I thought what a great time this would be to start a blog! I don't know about you guys but I always research a ton before I buy baby gear.what is the best sleeper, toys, food maker, etc.
