Today we want to dedicate our weekly post to explaining what co-sleeping nests are, to clarify any doubts for first-time parents or the most forgetful ones ;)
Surely you have heard about nest bassinets or co-sleeping nests. In fact, we have already talked about this in previous posts, but what exactly are co-sleeping nests? And what are they for? We'll tell you!
The reason for the shape of co-sleeping nests
Co-sleeping nests are inspired by the mother's womb; the idea is to simulate the place where the baby has grown for 9 months to make it more welcoming. In this way, the newborn will feel protected sleeping in a smaller space than a crib provides.
Furthermore, having spent so much time snuggled in the uterus, the reduction of the nest bassinet gives them a sense of security and confidence, making them quickly familiar with the environment. This type of nest offers a feeling of well-being and tranquility, making your baby fall asleep more easily.
On the other hand, it is worth noting that it promotes the baby's postural hygiene. While in a crib there would be too much space, in a co-sleeping nest, they will find the most comfortable and ergonomic position to sleep, making it very easy to adapt to their new resting place. Likewise, this functionality reduces the risk of flat head syndrome, which is so common among newborns.
