CozyWedge

crib_royalI am going to share with you one of the scariest moments I had as a parent. Just like most parents, I purchased my son a crib bedding in-a-bag combo for my sons nursery. It came with the fitted crib sheet, comforter, crib skirt and bumper. Little did I know, but I was putting my son in a dangerous setting. You see, he was not very old when he began rolling around all over the place and to be honest, I did not think much about it as I laid him down to bed every night.

One night, that naive thinking process changed. I woke up to blood curdling screams blaring through the baby monitor. When I got into my sons room, his head was pinned between the crib rails and his bumper. I immediately took the bumper out and vowed to never place one in the crib again.

So when my daughter was born, I once again purchased the crib bedding in a bag, but this time left the bumper off. About a month after her birth, I was given the opportunity to test out the http://www.cozywedge.com and did so reluctantly. Since trying this product, I have fallen in love. The CozyWedge bumper fits snugly around the crib, not allowing it to slip down and because of the firmness of this product, it does not form a pocket around baby’s mouth and nose.

So what is the CozyWedge and how does it work? Simple. When your CozyWedge arrives, you will notice several foam pieces, as well as two long strips of cloth. Simply lay the slipcover flat with tag on the right, facing upwards then insert all the foam wedges with the smallest side away from you. You will be able to put two wedges on the right and four on the left. Place in crib with the small side of the wedge on mattress. Repeat this very process for the second slipcover and once completed, you will connect the slipcovers in opposite corners, pressing firmly together. Then, like your typical bumper, you will tie the CozyWedge to the crib slats.

And for those parents who are curious to know what the CozyWedge is made from, I will tell you. The CozyWedge slipcovers are made from 100% organic cotton, while the foam wedge inserts are made from polyethylene foam, which has no odor, no VOC’s and no CFC’s. All of their products are made within the USA.

  1. I have seen different kinds of bumpers and when i have looked at them in the store it has been easy to see that they could possibly do more harm than good, i can imagine that it can happen the way you said, if the design is bad.
