2016 bonmedico Guardian Baby Pillow Memory Foam Head-Positioning Cushion In Blue

The Guardian Baby Pillow, developed by Bonmedico® especially for infants and babies ages 0-12 months, gently supports the naturally round shape of baby's head by evenly distributing pressure against the skull, relieving pressure points, and allowing optimal airflow to help prevent SIDS (crib death). Babies' heads develop rapidly in the first year of life. In this phase, the skull is still soft and can become deformed or flattened from resting against a hard surface. Also called "positional plagiocephaly," this asymmetric flattening of the back of the head is popularly known as flat head syndrome. Recent studies show that this unnatural change of the head shape occurs in almost 50% of all newborns. The Guardian Baby Pillow features preformed viscoelastic memory foam in a concave shape that gently cradles the head. This innovative design provides ideal support to evenly distribute weight and relieve pressure points on the back of the head. The infant pillow cushion is designed so that it not only helps maintain natural rounding of the head, but also encourages a healthier and safer sleeping position. Another fear of many parents is sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS / crib death). Sadly, this is still the leading cause of death for babies under 12 months. Pediatricians recommend putting babies to sleep on their backs, which improves airflow and oxygenation, to help prevent suffocation and reduce the risk of SIDS. The soft cotton fabric pillow case loves your baby's delicate skin and greatly improves airflow compared with other pillows or baby bedding. As baby grows, the Guardian Baby Pillow can also become a toddler pillow. The protective cotton pillow case is removable and machine washable at 30°C (86°F) All materials used are hypoallergenic, non-toxic.
