I ordered two of these for our twins figuring they could help soothe them when I was too tired (or unable) to keep a hand on them. From the picture, I thought they would have some kind of poseable wire inside but they are just a bean bag like sack. It's hard to keep the beans inside the fingers to make it feel like a hand. A simple sock filled with beans would feel the same, and cost a lot less. I suppose it wouldn't be washable but just as good in my opinion.

I liked the idea of this product, but it didn't do anything for our daughter.

I have serious concerns about a product that shows a child sleeping on their belly weighted down with a bean bag. First the bean bag itself could present a risk as it keeps the child from being able to clear his head. Secondly, one of the reasons babies are at risk of SIDS while on their bellies is because they sleep more soundly. If this increases the depth of their sleep then you are putting them farther at risk. I am shocked that this product is allowed on the market though I expect there is probably a disclaimer that says not to allow your baby to sleep on her belly while using it.
