Submitted as: Babies and toddlers sleep longer than adults. Thes
Babies and toddlers sleep longer than adults. These little ones spend approximately 13-18 hours in sleeping each day throughout their first three months. Child specialists throughout the world recommend the use of wearable blankets popularly called sleep sacks which are intended to be used in the crib so that they can sleep comfortably.
Blankets are loose and have proven to be deadly in case the baby moves around. A blanket could constrict the breathing of the infant if the face of the infant is covered by it. It's a risk that no parent would want to take. Sudden infant death syndrome- commonly known as SIDS is the main cause of death among babies that are 0-24 months old.

They are also warmer, more breathable and safer than the regular blankets. Your baby will happily fit in them. It is available in a variety of fabrics, colours, thickness, warmth and sizes and keeps the baby cosy at all times. Most of them are made using natural fibres like cotton and merino wool, or stretch fabric materials like interlock, jersey and lycra plus some also have a micro-fibre lining. Such materials feel soft on the baby's delicate skin and are less likely to rouse your baby's mood. Also, they have enough leg room for the baby to kick. A few baby sleeping sacks have cocoon shaped practical designs with shoulder straps which can be kept on or off when your baby is asleep. These straps prohibit the sleep sack from slipping down. The sleep sacks also have arm holes that permit ventilation and also help in sustaining a stable body temperature. A cool and unique feature is the central zipper which makes the midnight diaper change quick and handy. Because they can be purchased for a range of prices, they are fantastic gift ideas for a baby shower to expecting mothers.
