I think it`s a very important item to have, I`m going to get one for my baby. It keeps your child in safe positions at an early age and can prevent crib death that`s caused by wrong sleeping positions.

2 close friends used them and loved them. But another friend`s baby could get out of it by the time he was 3 weeks old! he would end up perpendicular to it, thus it did no good. I`ve read things on the SIDS websites and they say positioners do not prevent SIDS and its recommended to have nothing inthe crib with baby. I am due in March and will not use one.

Waste of money. The important thing with sleep position is that you put them down on their back! Babies have been known to tilt to the side a bit - that`s okay. Anyways, once baby can roll to their tummy (in 4-5 months) they`re useless (of course you still should put him/her down on their back)!

I have seen/used one with a couple babies that I used to watch. Don`t waste your money. IF you are that concerned about the baby`s sleep position use some of the baby blankets you have - roll them up and put one on either side of them. I have found that my kids slept how they wanted to regardless of how I laid them down to sleep.

they`re really made for co-sleeping. Their main purpose is to keep the baby in place and prevent you from rolling ontop of him. If you`re gonna use a crib, then don`t bother.

i had one with both my previous kids and i am definately going to be using one this time around too. i love it. as long as you use it right it shouldn`t cause any harm to your baby.

im using one so my baby doesnt turn over

I`ve read they can do more harm than good. I`m not getting one for my baby...but if you are going to have the baby in your bed, I`d get one. I`m having mine in a baisnet then a crib with no positioner.

ive read u shouldnt have anything in the crib with the baby. but they could be good if the baby wont sleep on their back so you can prop them up on their side. just keep it down away from their face!

  1. Does anyone have a baby with a double-first name? Like David-James? My friend wants to give her baby a double name but she isn`t sure how to fill it out on the birth certificate. She wants it to be David-James and that is what she will call him but she also wants to give him a middle name. Does she need to put a hyphen? We would appreciate any help with this as no one seems to know. Thanks


  2. Do my children look like me?


  3. 14 weeks, what do you think?
  4. Mikaela needs a middle name..
  5. Do you think Justus is a girl name or a boy name???
  6. I am using the Dual Evenflo Pump. what pump are you using and whats your experience?
  7. Which middle name do you think sounds better? Kane is not related to Cain from the bible. It`s origin is Hawaiian/Gaelic and it means `Beautiful Golden`.
  8. Would you be offended if you tried to add your Mother-in-law on facebook (or any other social networking site) and she declined the request??
  9. Do you believe walking helps you have easier labor??
