Details
The ergoPouch Hip Harness Cocoon Swaddle Bag is for babies who are
being treated for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH), and are
required to wear a special brace (orthosis). This zip-up swaddle is tog rated for warmth to keep your baby snug and securely swaddled during
sleep. The extra wide bell-shaped bottom is approved by the
International Hip Dysplasia Institute as being hip-healthy and
comfortably fits over a Pavlik Harness, Denis Browne Brace and Rhino
Brace.
The swaddle can be used on its own in room temperatures between 24°C+ with no blankets in the bassinet or cot to make this a safe sleep option for a newborn or baby. Parents can choose to have their baby's arms inside the swaddle (if your child has a strong startle reflex), or to open the poppers on the shoulder and use as an arms-out sleeping bag. When on your child, the swaddle will have additional length below the harness. This length can be left as is, or rolled up underneath the harness for your child's brace to rest on if that's comfortable for them. Once your child is out of their brace, they can continue to safely use the Hip Harness Cocoon Swaddle Bag for sleep until they are ready to move into another one of our Sleeping Bags.
The Cocoon Swaddle Bag is made from GOTS certified organic cotton, and bamboo, with a touch of elastane. This means it's firm enough to restrict startle reflex whilst still allowing stretch and movement for healthy growth. The stretch also allows for full chest expansion when breathing, added comfort, and for a baby to move its hands into a self-settling position inside the swaddle. The soft, breathable organic cotton and bamboo will help prevent overheating during sleep, is certified non-toxic, dyed with water based dyes, and gentle on newborn skin and skin prone to eczema breakouts. A zip enclosure also protects your child's delicate skin, and the two-way zipper makes for quick and easy nappy changes during sleep.
We
suggest layering underneath as needed for warmth, simply follow the free room thermometer and what to wear guide included with the
product to help dress your child appropriately.
Best for swaddled newborns and infants who wear a hip harness or brace to treat Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH)

change a nappy or cool down baby, zip open from the bottom of the
swaddle to release legs/brace and lower torso. Zip closed again when
finished.
4. Layer underneath the swaddle for warmth as needed
5.
To transition to arms-out sleeping once showing signs of rolling,
release arms by opening the studs on the shoulders. We suggest doing
this one arm at a time over several days.
6. The Cocoon can continue to be used as a safe sleep option once your baby's harness is no longer required.
If your newborn baby does not like being swaddled, it is safe to sleep the in the Cocoon Swaddle Bag with their arms out from the beginning.
Always sleep your baby in a safe-sleep environment.
