| Fisher Price Rock n' Play Sleeper |
But
then, Nemo was diagnosed with reflux and I realized that was the
reason he spit up constantly. He needs to be held upright for
20-30 minutes after eating and he needs to sleep at a 45 degree angle.
So, we began letting him sleep in his car seat ( not recommended by
baby experts...) and his bouncy seat (also not recommended...). We do
what we have to do.
Then, my Mother in Law came across the Fisher Price Rock n’ Play Sleeper. IT. IS. AWESOME.
I
love, love, love this thing. It’s compact, folds up, easily travels
from room to room and I don’t have to worry about reflux or him rolling
over during the night. I wish I had this for my other children because I
might have actually slept.
So
I went in search of some additional info so that I could share my
beloved sleeper with you guys and I came across a recall....
Apparently,
mold can grow between the plastic and lining causing some infants
respiratory problems. I loved this thing so much, that I purchased one
for my parents home for when my Mom watches the kids. And I bought it
second hand. Ug.
After
further examination of the quasi-recall, they don’t actually say that
the sleeper needs to be returned or repaired. It just needs to be
cleaned properly if mold should begin to grow.
Despite
this little problem, I still recommend the Rock N’ Play sleeper to
everyone who has a small baby. And I am recommending it to you, now,
especially if your baby is struggling with reflux or even a bad cold.
My poor baby has had his fair share of colds already and the sleeper
has kept him from choking on mucus. It has really saved us on a few
different occasions.
So,
if you own one of these beautiful sleepers, just be sure to check
underneath for mold. I checked both of mine and there is nothing there.
I imagine this would be more common if moisture was building in there
after, say, a diaper leaked or some other fluid were to be spilled.
Just like with anything you use with your children, be vigilant.
