Product Description

Details

We know that transitioning from being swaddled to a hands out position can be tough for some babies AND parents. The Sleepy Hugs Original Sleeping Bag is a great tool to help with this transition.

Designed for babies that have started to roll onto their tummy during sleep, this sleeping bag allows them to be able to move their arms into their preferred position. The Sleepy Hugs Original is a uniquely designed baby sleeping bag designed for babies who have outgrown swaddling and prefer unrestricted arm movement but still need some security to calm their startle reflex, yet provides just enough security to combat the startle reflex. It's the perfect sleeping bag to help babies transition to free arms without losing sleep. Perfect for tummy rollers.

This sleeping bag is 2.5 tog rated meaning it is great for the cooler seasons. The unique 2.5 tog quilting that makes up the sleeping bag is made from soft breathable organic cotton, chosen to keep your baby warm and comfortable and avoid overheating. Great for rooms that have a room temperature between 16-17°C. See a quick guide on what to wear in the 'how to use' section below. It has a bottom opening zip making it easy for nappy changes at anytime of the day or night. Arms are fully enclosed to help prevent scratching and keep hands toasty warm.

Free (optional use) 'Extra Hug' Belly Band/Strap

'Extra Hug' Belly Band

The ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap was created to be used with the Sleepy Hugs Sleeping Bag to give babies that extra ‘hug’ feeling of security. Designed to be used as an option for babies that need more security and need a little more help with transitioning out of swaddling. Using the ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap with the Sleepy Hugs is a great way to add a little more resistance for babies that may have strong startle reflex. The ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap can be worn on top of the Sleepy Hugs Sleeping Bag or inside the Sleepy Hugs Sleeping Bag using the belt loops provided to give the added resistance in the arms to help control the startle reflex.

Use the ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap only if your baby needs the extra security or extra help with transitioning out of the swaddle.
The ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap must be worn snug-fit around the baby’s tummy area (never loose fit).
Discontinue use if your baby can remove the ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap.
The ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap is not a medical device. It should not be used for umbilical hernias or other underlying medical conditions.
The ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap should not be used as a substitute for a compression band and is not suitable for post surgery support.
The ‘Extra Hug’ Belly Band/Strap is made from stretchy organic cotton for a soft comfortable fit.

Sizing Information

Sizing Chart

Please take a look at the Size Guide below to help you choose the right size sleep bag for your baby. The Sleepy Hugs baby sleeping bag is designed to help your baby gently transition out of a restrictive swaddle. It has been designed to be a looser fit than most other baby sleeping bags and is most effective in helping your baby adjust to free arms with the correct size.

The Sleepy Hugs is all about the arm span so it’s important to choose the correct size. If too big, your baby will not get the security and snug fit that they still need in the arms. More importantly, if too big there could be excess fabric that could pose a safety risk.

The correct way to measure your baby's arm span is to measure with your baby’s arms slightly bent from one side to the other - this is how your baby sleeps naturally. Do not measure with your baby's arms fully stretched out - you will not get the right fit.

The Sleepy Hugs baby sleeping bag comes in three sizes -

The measurements provided below are of the garment and does not include baby's head.

X-Small (0-3 M) - suitable for babies aged from newborn to 12 weeks, weighing 3 - 6 kg. The arm span width is approx. 46cm. The length is approx. 56cm and the neck hole opening is approx. 9cm.
Small (3-6 M) - suitable for babies aged from 3 months onwards weighing 6 - 8 kg. The arm span width is approx. 56cm. The length is approx. 65cm and the neck hole opening of approx. 11cm.
Medium (6-12 M) - suitable for babies aged from 6 months onwards, weighing 8 - 10 kg. The arm span width is approx. 65cm.The length is approx. 75cm and the neck hole opening is approx. 12cm.

How to Use

How to dress your baby with a TOG rated sleep bag

It's important to use the TOG rating and suggested clothing only as a general guide.

Just like adults feel the temperature differently, your baby will too. For example, you might be fine with a jumper in 16°C degrees weather whereas someone else might be bundled up in a jacket on top of a jumper.

Your baby is your best gauge - Always check your baby regularly to ensure they do not overheat or are too cold. Watch how your baby reacts to different TOG ratings to ensure your baby is warm or cool enough for sleeping. Here are some things to watch out for when dressing your baby for sleep -

Watch for signs of overheating - If your baby has damp hair, sweaty back and chest, red ears, fevers, your baby may be too hot and needs to be dressed down. Take off a layer or use a sleep bag with a lower TOG rating.
Frequent wake-ups - If your baby is waking up crying or fussing, it may be a sign that your baby may be too hot or cold, or it may be due to other developmental reasons (i.e. teething, growth spurt, dropping naps, etc). If your baby feels cold to the touch (back of the neck or chest/back) then add a layer or put on a higher TOG rating sleeping bag.
