The one behind him will go up to support his whole head and the one in front is only up to his chest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-positioning#post-204828 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 13:13:43 +0000 Mrs. Bee 204828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yah the sleep positioners are not supposed to be safe but at that age, i used to put a rolled up receiving blanket under charlie on one side so that he was on his side, but not all the way. i think they sleep better that way, and they like the feeling of something touching them. plus it helped with his flat head! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-positioning#post-204799 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 12:56:37 +0000 mrs. wagon 204799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used the airflow sleep positioners, but I've heard those are not safe now either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-positioning#post-204787 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 12:49:47 +0000 Weagle 204787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Until now, DD (7 weeks) has been sleeping in a Nap Nanny at night and for naps to help with reflux. And she's been sleeping in 5-6 hour stretches at night since two weeks old. Due to changes in my diet, the reflux has gotten significantly better so we're ready to transition her to her crib in her room. The problem is, she doesn't sleep well on her back. At all. Today she took a 45 minute nap swaddled on her back, which is longer than she has ever slept on her back, but I'm pretty sure it's a fluke. I do know that she sleeps very well on her side, because she's taken very good naps that way with me sitting beside her. Are there any safe sleep positioners for side sleeping? Should I suck it up and know that I'll have a couple of days of rough sleep until she gets the hang of being on her back? </p>
