Safe T Sleep®
Safe T Sleep® little HEADwedge | For babies under 6 months, the combination of the Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap and Little HEADwedge helps to prevent your baby developing a flat or deformed head. It’s the best you can get for baby’s safe sleeping.
For babies under 6 months, the combination of a Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap and a little HEADwedge helps prevent your baby developing a flat or deformed head. It’s the best you can get for baby’s safe sleeping plus and ensuring baby has a lovely shaped head.
The younger the baby, the softer the head. That’s why your baby’s head needs protection while they sleep. The Safe T Sleep HEADwedge helps ensure natural baby head shaping and normal brain development while allowing for movement that is natural during baby's sleep and nap times.
The Safe T Sleep little HEADwedge tucks well under the Sleepwrap beside the head and underneath the shoulder. It also tucks comfortably behind baby’s back when side sleeping. The Safe T Sleep HEADwedge is designed to be used together the all Sleepwrap sizes upto 6months old. It consists of a 100% top quality cotton cover over a specially designed triangular chemical free foam wedge.
The little Safe T Sleep HEADwedge assists parents and caregivers to help position baby's head on alternate sides at each sleep to help prevent flat, deformed heads occurring in young infants, which is an ongoing concern world-wide.
Globally, approximately 30% of flat deformed heads do not self-correct, despite all efforts. This is a significant statistic and causes much unnecessary trauma. Sometimes the problems are cosmetic, but it can also involve brain impairment. The American Association of Paediatrics estimates that more than 30% of cases never self-correct and that over 10% globally need surgery!
Use the HEADwedge tucked well underneath the Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap baby wrap so that it complies with safety advice: ‘do not have loose items in the cot’. Place the Little HEADwedge on alternate sides of baby’s head at each sleep. When side sleeping baby, you can use the little HEADwedge tucked behind their back.
The Safe T Sleep HEADwedge is most useful from the first night through to when baby is approximately six months old. The younger the baby, the softer the head so in those early months, baby's head will typically be softest.
