HALO wants to wish all you moms out there a Happy Mother’s Day! You do so much to comfort, love and protect your precious babies as they grow. They might not be able to say thanks for all you do yet, but you are doing a good job and deserve a round of applause. As a fun Mother’s Day opportunity, I get to run a giveaway of a HALO sleepsack or swaddle for your precious dreamer (and your peace of mind)!
The HALO SleepSack is like a wearable and safe blanket that can easily go over pajamas in colder weather. It’s easy to put on, has a backwards zipper for quick diaper changes, is cozy but not too hot, and has cute patterns.
Safe Sleep Tips from HALO:
ALWAYS
-
Place baby to sleep on his or her back at naptime and at night time.
-
Use a crib that meets current safety standards with a firm mattress that fits snugly and is covered with only a tight-fitting crib sheet.
-
Remove all soft bedding and toys from your baby’s sleep area (this includes loose blankets, bumpers, pillows and positioners). The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests using a wearable blanket instead of loose blankets to keep your baby warm.
-
Offer a pacifier when putting baby to sleep. If breastfeeding, introduce pacifier after one month or after breastfeeding has been established.
-
Breastfeed, if possible, but when finished, put your baby back to sleep in his or her separate safe sleep area alongside your bed.
-
Room share, but don’t bed share. Bed sharing can put a child at risk of suffocation.
NEVER
-
Never put your baby to sleep on any soft surface (adult beds, sofas, chairs, water beds, quilts, sheep skins etc.)
-
Never dress your baby too warmly for sleep; keep room temperature 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
Never allow anyone to smoke around your baby or take your baby into a room or car where someone has recently smoked.
-

My favorite mom moment? Too many to count! One of the more recent would be after my son was born and we brought him home and my daughter would always ask “hold my baby?” 🙂 I love watching her as a big sister!
My favorite mom memory is when they first begin to talk, I love that sweet little voice.
the moment my oldest met my youngest. he was so in love . hes her little protector
I’ll become a mom next week! As of right now my favorite memories are of his movements inside of me 🙂
I have a hard time picking a favorite mom memory. One of them would be when I first got to hold my little guy.
My favorite memory is when my oldest took her first steps which ended up being nine total steps at once!
I’m 22 weeks pregnant now and my favorite memory so far has been feeling the baby kick.
