Have you heard of this?

One of my boys has a flat head and yes we have been doing tummytime, repositioning etc...but none of it seems to be working. We have are 4 mth appt on Wed so I'm sure the dr. will have some suggestions.

I have now two people that have told me about this: A sleep position to prevent flat heads. When I asked where they got it, they said BRU. Well I went there the other day and the directed me to the head positioners for car seats--not what I was looking for. Anyway, has anyone seen anything like this and if so where can you get it?

 

I haven't heard of this. I'm looking forward to the replies!

 

I used one that has the memory foam so it is supposed to help prevent pressure.
I have seen them at BRU - in our store it is near the bottles on a shelf to the left.

 

I haven't heard of it, but I did have a sleep positioner for the crib. We would wedge the babies so they could sleep on their sides instead of their backs. I don't know that it was for flat heads, but we got it at BRU.

 

I have seen this at Meijer.

I used a sleep positioner for this reason too. This is the one we used.

We used the same one as Nicole for Tyler. Derek had nasty reflux and slept on an incline so we used this Sleep positioner with incline.

Hope this helps!

 

I bought one at BRU and used it for awhile - it was memory foam and was inclined. I also bought Boppy Noggins to help when the babies were in their car seats. Look again at BRU.... they have them.

 

I bought the memory foam positioners for both of my girls at toys r us. They were on the same aisle as the carseats, strollers, etc. They were really neat, however they were a bit pricey.

 

We bought one of these for our DD and I think it helped. We only used it when she was in her swing, bouncy chair or carseat. This is the one we bought off of Amazon.

Thanks for the suggestion. My only concern is one of my boys is starting to roll at 4mths(only happened twice) and the product website says not to use when they start to roll. I know I should of used this from the beginning but my boys only started sleeping in the cribs about a month ago because reflux.
