Baby Tuck Sheet from ergoPouch
The Baby Tuck Sheet is a TOG-rated, safe alternative to blankets suitable from birth designed to minimise startle reflex and maximise sleep for newborns.
Some babies may need more than a swaddle for sleep, and require additional firmness and security around their body. If this is your bub, meet our Baby Tuck Sheet. This firm-fitting mattress sleeve is a safe alternative to loose blankets, easy to use and flexible for different sleep environments.
Use on top of a swaddle or layer to provide warmth, security and comfort for an infant without the risk of coming untucked. The two TOG-rated sides allow you to adjust for warmth level and firmness. Use the 0.2 TOG side across your baby’s body for a light layer and low startle reflex. If your baby requires a warmer layer with tighter fit, opt to use the 1.0 TOG side over their body. Follow the included Bedding Temperature Guide for help on what TOG side to use, and what to wear underneath for sleep.
The Tuck Sheet features a two-way zip, to adjust for firmness (tightness) and mattress size.
Safety
The Baby Tuck Sheet has been stringently tested and approved as safe by leading independant infant safety organisation INPAA. When using the right size for your baby’s length and sleep envrionment, the Baby Tuck Sheet will not come up higher than mid-way up baby’s chest following Red Nose safe sleep guidelines. Given the design of the product, the Baby Tuck Sheet cannot become untucked from the mattress, be pulled up near baby’s face, or be classified as loose bedding in any way. If your baby does manage to get their legs out of the Tuck Sheet, it will simply lie flat on the mattress. Newborns who don’t like to be swaddled may find the firmness of the Tuck Sheet comforting in lieu of sleeping with their arms in.
Please cease using the Baby Tuck Sheet once your baby shows signs of rolling over.
