Hi there, I'm about to transition my son from his cot to a toddler bed/single mattress on the floor and I was wondering what type of bedding I should be using? Do I use sheets and a doona now? He has only ever been in a sleeping bag in his cot with nothing else in the cot. He is only 18 months yet starting to climb so I need to transition him out of the cot. Thank you in advance, Tegan

Hi there, my son is 9 months old and uses a comforter to sleep his grown quite attached to it. Can childcare’s allow older babies to use them in the cots for sleeps. It’s a teddy with a tummy attached.

We have just had our first baby and have been given a My First Years Close & Secure Sleeper. Is this product safe for co-sleeping? Thanks

I have seen a lot of advertising for the Safesnug Hammock & was wondering if it’s a safe option. They say it is shaped like the womb & cradles the baby to prevent rolling. it has been certified by CPSC & are using them in daycares. Has anyone looked into this product?

Hi, My daughter is just over 4 months old and has started to roll onto her tummy to sleep. I put her to sleep on her back but after a few hours she insists on rolling onto her tummy. Do I need to keep waking her up and insist she still sleeps on her back? She is already sleeping with arms out but in a sleeping bag. I’ve tried to keep her on her back but she just ends up screaming and refusing to go back to sleep unless she is on her tummy.

My 2.5 year old is still sleeping in a cot in a sleeping bag. Is this safe? She also usually has a light blanket, cushion, soft toy and a few dummies. Should I remove items?

Hi, the current safety standard for cots is AS2172:2003, however I have seen some cots which has AS/NZS 2172:2013. If I have a cot that is AS/NZS 2172:2003, would it still be ok? Thanks

My nearly 5 month old has started sleeping on her side in the cot. Rolling from back to front began early at about 3 months, however she is unable to roll front to back yet. I have used a sleep suit since she was around 1 month and transitioned to the appropriate arms free one once she started showing signs of rolling. I have also tried a tight top sheet to keep her from rolling. This worked for a night, however she managed to still get to her side the following night. Her cot is next to my bed I am frequently waking to check on her, trying to roll her back to her back if I find her on her side. She usually resists it and often either wakes or fights being put on her back. I give her lots of tummy time during the day and am trying to encourage her to learn the roll back to back skill. How can I keep her on her back the whole night to improve both our sleeps?!
