I've seen it too, and wondered what others think.

Were there any studies or anything saying it's safe? I mean, I'd think it's fine for monitored use, but not like overnight or anything. But, I don't really know.

Someone suggested this product to me when I was pregnant and I just laughed. You're not even supposed to let them sleep on it. This thing seems like a total racket.

From Their Website:

Can my baby sleep on the Babocush?

Do not let your baby sleep on the Babocush. Sleeping on their front can pose a suffocation risk and is thought to increase the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), according to the NHS Guidelines on SIDS. The babocush is intended to provide relief from colic and reflux, to help settle fractious babies and to provide tummy time in order to prevent flat-head syndrome and other associated problems. Never ever leave your baby unattended on the babocush. You will find your baby will be so content on the babocush that they may fall asleep. If this happens, please place your baby in their cot or crib to sleep.

If you’re feeling frazzled and worn out, the babocush can give you a short break to spend one on one time with the other children, eat dinner with both hands, drink a coffee while it’s still hot, go to the toilet or have a shower etc. (your baby can rest happily on the babocush in the room with you).

Not FDA regulated or approved- that makes it a big NO for me!

I just watched the video and omg, that looks wonderful! That would have been a godsend if it was around when LO was an infant.

I can definitely see the benefits for a colic or reflux baby just to get some relief. But the colic hold is just as good for that and free. Or pass baby off to your partner/in-law/nice neighbour so you don't throw yourself out the window from the crying
