Sleeping in a sleeping bag is a safe and comfortable way to sleep for your little one. In the first weeks, a sheet and blanket are fine, but as soon as your child becomes more mobile, he or she can move through the entire bed while sleeping. The benefits of a sleeping bag:
- The sleeping bag ensures that your baby does not end up with his or her head under the bedding and prevents breathing problems.
- Your baby rolls less easily from the back to the stomach, which is safe because of the risk of SIDS in the prone position.
- Your child cannot toss and turn naked and therefore get cold.
- With a sleeping bag it is less easy to climb out of the bed and therefore you prevent a nasty fall.
When purchasing a baby sleeping bag, make sure that you buy the right size.
