Rock n play sleeper for reflux.
The rock n play sleeper holds babies at a 30 degree angle like a recliner.
But finding a suitable alternative to the rock n play has gotten even harder now.
As an added bonus it was lightweight and cheap.
Parents particularly appreciated the rock n play because it provided a soft and cozy sleeping surface and the inclined position offered some relief to babies with acid reflux.
The fisher price rock n play sleeper debuted in 2009 and is billed as an inclined sleeper baby is placed inside the sleeper which has deep side walls to keep a baby snug.
Fisher price says on its website that the company started developing the rock n play sleeper when one of its designers had a baby boy who had trouble sleeping because of acid reflux.
If a doc advises you to use a rock n play or car seat to manage reflux you might consider discussing the american academy of pediatrics guidelines for safe sleep and reflux management.
I was looking at the reviews on amazon and most of the reviews were really good but the ones that were bad talked about thier babies getting flat heads and some kind of neck muscle problem.
Fisher price touts the sleeper as great for overnight sleep on its box and the inclined seat helps baby sleep all night long on fp s web site.
