The arrival of a baby involves many purchases. As parents, you should carefully weigh which investments make sense. An important point is where your baby should sleep. An automatic baby hammock motor not only provides a cozy place to sleep but can also reduce the risk of SIDS. We summarize the key points.
swing2sleep automatic baby hammock meets baby balcony: So your baby sleeps restfully
Baby sleep is an important topic, and therefore the choice of sleeping place for the new family member is of particular significance. Accordingly, the range of cribs, bassinets, cradles, etc., is broad and diverse. If you take current scientific findings on the need for proximity in newborns into account, only two solutions really come into question for the initial period.
A bedside sleeper, colloquially known as a baby balcony, and an automatic baby hammock with a baby hammock like the swing2sleep.
1. Bedside sleeper and baby balcony
A bedside sleeper or baby balcony is an extremely practical matter. It is placed directly next to the parents' bed and secured there, so that it extends the lying surface by its own, separate area. So the baby is in bed with you and yet not.
This is particularly advantageous for breastfeeding mothers because they no longer have to get up to feed the child. In addition, soothing physical contact can easily be maintained with the baby, for example, by placing an arm around them. In this respect, the bedside sleeper has enormous advantages over an extra crib, a bassinet, or a cradle in which the baby quickly feels alone.
The concern that you might accidentally crush the baby while sleeping is rather unfounded with a baby balcony because the child has its own sleeping area. The risk of the dreaded sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is also not increased by a bedside sleeper.
You are always close by, and the baby senses your presence, feels your proximity, and hears you breathing. This gives them security and a sense of safety for a peaceful sleep. In contrast to a cradle, however, a bedside sleeper does not provide rocking movements, and that can be an important factor for many children.
2. The automatic baby hammock
Supine position in the automatic baby hammock for your baby reduces the risk of SIDS
Every parent is happy when their baby can fall asleep relaxed and slumbers peacefully in their baby bed. In the automatic baby hammock from swing2sleep, your baby lies in the hammock.
There they lie on their back: The supine position is the safest sleeping position for infants. It is intended to prevent SIDS and offer your baby a safe sleep.
On a normal mattress, your baby could turn and end up in the prone position. This is associated with a particularly high risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Using an automatic baby hammock, on the other hand, is safe: your baby lies on their back but still has sufficient freedom of movement and flexibility. This significantly reduces the risk factor for SIDS.
At the same time, the automatic baby hammock also prevents pressure points and deformations of the skull. Infants sleep up to 18 hours a day and always lie on the same spot. Such pressure points are also prevented by the automatic baby hammock from swing2sleep.
Are you wondering if your baby lies safely in the automatic baby hammock? Yes, our stable frame and robust suspension ensure that the automatic baby hammock is safe and there is no risk to your baby. It is now even recommended by midwives and osteopaths.
Automatic baby hammocks with motor offer the best of both worlds
The comparison shows that both solutions basically mesh perfectly. An automatic baby hammock like the swing2sleep is ideal for sleep during the day, when you can keep a caring eye on your little one – and in the evening, the swing2sleep is unbeatable at sending the child to the land of dreams.
Afterward, you gently transfer them to the bedside sleeper. When they wake up at night or get hungry, you are right there, and your child enjoys the security of family warmth. By combining both systems, you lay the foundation for a close family bond and the healthy development of your child.
And you don't have to dig too deep into your pockets either: there is a rental option for the swing2sleep, so that your child's health and your family's harmony do not depend on your wallet.
