Pros & Cons of Using a Baby Nest
good morning my name is Anna I am the
owner of little ink sleep we are
certified sleep consultants who have
here to help your family we're a leader
at today I'm going to give you a couple
of tips about mists myth our sleeping
services or hanging out services for
babies this one has been kindly given to
us by Jesse sewing room so check check
those out there are an affordable option
other options for next that you might
see on the market ones like we commonly
know in Dhaka Todd a lot of people use
these to closely put their babies and I
wanted to just kind of cover and get a
lot of questions about them cover the
pros and cons of inist they're really
great and babies actually really love
them because they're nice and cozy
however they're not recommended for
sleeping and so let's just talk about
why I've borrowed my daughter's lovely
little baby doll here and so we're going
to talk about the pros and the cons so
when you have a newborn they like to be
snuggled they like to be held and so
often we find that babies want to have
something close they want to be the
swaddle is actually the reason why we
swaddle and the reason why babies like
to have something that holds them in
tight it's because as adults we have
partial paralysis and what that means is
that we're in the REM stage of sleep
which is rapid eye movement we actually
are partially paralyzed so we're not
acting out our dreams and we're able to
fully risk but we'll also able to move
if there's an emergency or a baby crying
right with babies they're not born with
this and so even in utero they are
kicking and moving in
and that's actually them dreaming it's
not necessarily that they are weak they
don't develop this partial paralysis
until about two to three months old in
its absence we have the style reflex and
the style reflex is where a baby will
throw one on or a wet leg and go kind of
move around so that is a traditionally
way the swaddle is from I'll do a video
on the best way to swaddle later on
however when that is a big reason of my
babies likeness is because it's a it's
nice and close it it's nice and tight
for them and I'm not feeling like
they've got too much room to move around
when I miss it's appropriate parents
often choose a nest with not co-sleeping
because they'll worried that they're
going to roll on to their baby and so
they want to create a buffer with that
baby
unfortunately nests have actually been
shown in pediatricians stand behind the
fact that you can still roll over the
nest that quite squishy and so it
doesn't necessarily stop a adult rolling
on to the baby who is in a nest
babies are recommended to sleep on a
hottest surface than a nest and so as
for co-sleeping there are coast sleep is
that are available if you're choosing to
Co sleep and then you
also have the baby in the old bassinet
or crib but that is a little big reason
why parents choose so that I'm not
rolling onto them the other piece to the
puzzle is that when a baby is sleeping
they we think that they stay still but
actually they move and wiggle around
quite a bit and so what happens is baby
is in a nest and if we have them roll
and the head goes on to the side PA you
can see that the dolls mouth is actually
is available but isn't actually taking
an oxygen right here what happens is
that they can actually roll onto a side
of something like that and that is why
we have breathable besides on cribs as
well because you can have recycled air
and so then there's not oxygen in that
air and that can actually cause this so
we want to make sure that when a baby is
sleeping overnight somewhere
unsupervised that they're not in a place
that is compromising their breathing
just because we can see them out does
not mean that I'm not getting recycled
air so that is a big risk with nests and
so I don't recommend that you sleep
overnight with something like this
however what I do recommend is they are
great for when your baby is just
chilling out so say I am in the shower
and baby is playing on their back you
can have baby in here in the bathroom so
you're feeling like okay they're not
going to roll anywhere unsafe they are
comfortable and then they're able you're
able to shower in peace or maybe you're
making dinner or something like that as
far as sleep goes they are fantastic for
naps the reason being is that you can
put this on the couch and baby is not
going to roll off the couch see you
later baby is going to stay nice and
safe in the nest the reason why that's
okay for a baby to sleep and then minced
for enough and it's no
overnight is because you are supervising
during a now so you're around they may
be on the couch they may be on the floor
or you may be somewhere nearby and so
you're able to make sure that they're
always safe and that breathing is not an
issue the other nice thing about these
things as they grow the ends Oh open up
and so the baby can grow and the legs
can come out the end when my little
daughter started to take a bottle rather
than breastfeeding she actually really
liked to have her books while in the
mist or sometimes she would take a
bottle and just lay there and really
enjoy it so you can also do some tummy
time there if you have a little one who
needs a bit of propping up during tummy
time you can also put them off so that
they're a little bit over the edge you
obviously want to be really careful of
their neck strength and making sure that
they're okay these are fantastic
everyday pieces especially for it when
you have a newborn and you're worried
about them rolling off places or you
need a safe place to put them or maybe
you just want to watch a movie and they
want to nap it also does help encourage
the independent sleep for those naps so
overall I love miss yes of course I want
to mist when I have my own kids with my
daughter we love nests however what I
encourage you to use them overnight no
we want to make sure that baby has a hot
sleeping surface with breathable edges
and that they're in a sleeping space
that is their own but if you have any
questions feel free to post them below
and I will have
respond to them but as for the mist we
love them and have super fun to relax in
and actually I really love taking a
camping I hope that you guys have a
great day and remember that we have a
