What's with the recent reflux epidemic?
Seems like most babies have it. |
Thank you for posting, OP. |
By the time you get the seat belt properly secured, baby wakes up. That's why most parents don't bother. They're tired. Parents need parenting instruction. |
Yes life saver for naps during the day when someone was around. Night time was another story. Mine too had reflux. Seems like they are all diagnosed with it. |
It’s from sleeping on their back. Lower SIDs but now babies can’t sleep and many have reflux. |
This totally makes sense to me. Thank you. Did someone tell you this? |
That is not normal |
Why do you think that? I disagree with you. |
My first kid had no problem sleeping on her back. I didn’t understand why people would ever risk the swing or rock n play. My second kid had reflux and it was terrible. I could not put him down. Rock n play and swing saved us. I suppose you can pay a night nurse to hold your baby upright all night while awake but we didn’t have the money. It was a very traumatic time for me as someone with anxiety. I bought a breathing monitor put him in rock n play and called it a night (you know for 2 hrs until I had to feed again). We did transition at 4 months to crib before he rolled. |
My 4 year old and 2 old have been sitting in kitchen stools since 20 months or so. Have never had any incident or indication of a problem. Just would never occur to me to use booster. I only use them if they can’t reach a table at a restaurant not really as a safety thing. Doesn’t seem necessary at that age. Boosters are only prcactical to actually make you sit higher. |
If you can afford a night nurse to watch your baby all night, then can you allow tummy sleeping to avoid reflux? |
Nonsense. They are diagnosed within days and weeks and I have seen plenty sleep on their side for naps or in a swing which is not flat or rock n play which is not flat. |
Wow. I'm not envisioning a 20 month old sitting up safely on a kitchen stool for meal time. No highchair at all? |
You seem to have very limited experience. People get diagnosed with reflux at all ages. |
I think putting something under one end of the crib or bassinnett to elevate it-such as blocks-would be much safer than sleeping in the rock n play.
10 infant deaths in barely 4 years, sounds like a dangerous product. I did not buy one for my dd, I'm not taking the risk. |
