Review from a Reflux Baby

This review comes from Brandi of Texas:

We received our SnuggleU in the mail & that was the first night my daughter slept 9 hours! She had only been going 4-5 every night. We implemented Babywise from day 1, but our precious baby girl suffered from reflux. She was a really good sleeper considering & I just knew she could go longer if only she could feel more snuggled. She was swaddled but she just needed something else, then I remember seeing your ad in your Babywise blog for SuggleU. We gave it a shot & it's almost been a week of sleeping bliss!!!! Thank you for this wonderful gift .... Our sweet baby is sleeping peacefully starting at 10 weeks.

Essential Product {Review}

I think the SnuggleU is a non-negotiable infant baby product, and i have tried an embarrassingly large number of baby products! As an RN, I am all about the Back-To-Sleep campaign (in effort of SIDS reduction/prevention), but it seems most infants dont sleep well in a bare crib with nothing around them.  I feel the SnuggleU is the product to bridge that gap safely, as it provides a snug and secure feel to any safe, flat sleeping surface (crib, packnplay, travel bed, etc.).

As the winter approaches, I also added a Kiddopotamus Snuzzler Complete Head and Body Support (cheap on ebay!), which provides lots of warmth and further support (but I wouldn't use this for a more mobile, rolling over babe!)

My daughter was in the NICU as a preemie and the nurses used a similar product there as well. Plus Val has managed to make the covers a fashion statement and I hope there is a sale on more covers sometime! Would recommend this product to anyone with an infant. My daughter is just shy of 3 months old and she is still using it!

Review: Great for Colic and Reflux!

2 month old snuggled up in SnuggleU

This review is from Amanda of West Virginia.


When my second son was 2 weeks old he was diagnosed with Acid Reflux, or GERD, as well as Colic, and we were advised to do things like keep him upright for 30 minutes after every feeding and keep his mattress inclined.  All of this to keep him from spitting up.  The problem was, once we inclined his mattress 30 degrees as suggested, he slid down every time!  So now we had a screaming baby who never slept, spit up a lot, and we'd have to go in and check on him the rare times he was sleeping because we'd find him slid up against the crib rails.  He ended up sleeping on my husband or I on the couch more times than not, which besides being extremely unsafe was also keeping us from getting any sleep either.

Once I bought the SnuggleU everything clicked into place.  It is much sturdier and heavier than I thought, which worked perfectly to keep him in place, since he was a big baby (used it from 1-5 months and 10-18lbs!) It helped to keep him from sliding down in his crib, and combined with swaddling kept him feeling snuggled and secure in his big crib.  His sleep improved right away and continued to improve.  We were able to take the SnuggleU out at 5 months with no problems and he's still a fantastic sleeper because we were able to establish good sleeping habits from the start with the SnuggleU.  

I highly recommend this product for any newborn but especially for those who have reflux and/or colic. 

User Review

Here is a review from user Laura Hadfield from Utah. 

I have seven children, but I use very few baby products. This one, though, I love. All of my babies previously have spent lots of their sleeping time with me holding them or sleeping by them for their first few months. My seventh is my first baby to sleep in his own crib because the SnuggleU makes him feel secure and holds him still so he doesn't wake himself up.

I can even incline the mattress and with the SnuggleU under him, he stays perfectly still and bundled. I wish I had this product for all of my other children!

My sister is having her first baby in a month. I usually only give money or diapers because I know they will get used. I am breaking the tradition, though, to get her a SnuggleU. Transitioning into motherhood is so much easier if your baby sleeps well, so this product is a must. I know she will love it, too!
