Aids better sleep вЂ“ for Rory, itвЂ™s made a huge difference as he even seems more content in the day just relaxing in it.Eases transition into own room/cot вЂ“ baby is already familiar with the Sleepyhead when he/she is eventually transitioned into a large spacious cot (which many babies find daunting compared to co-sleeping or a moses basket).Removable/washable covers вЂ“ we luckily had an extra cover for when the other was in the washing machine (the gorgeous new silver linings chevron cover) as Rory is quite a sicky baby.It is also soft enough for you to have your arm over the baby for reassurance (Rory LOVES his bum being patted). Suitable for co-sleeping вЂ“ this is what it was designed for, it provides extra safety as the sides prevent parents rolling on the baby or baby rolling out of bed/under the covers.Versatile вЂ“ can be used when baby is sleeping OR awake for tummy time, a play or even changing mat.It is advertised as being air permeable (breathable) with a safe firm mattress (although feels very luxury вЂ“ iвЂ™d love to curl up in one!) as well as being anti-bacterial, anti-dustmite, anti-fungal AND waterproof. This is obviously a massively important factor to watch out for when purchasing a pod as many of the others on the market state not to use it unsupervised or for long periods/at nighttime due to risk of SIDS. Safe вЂ“ it has been rigorously tested unlike some of the other pods on the market as well as recommended by midwifes.

Portable вЂ“ I love how easy it is to move about, weвЂ™ve been taking it downstairs in the day so Rory has that consistency of knowing when he goes in it he should be sleeping and familiarity if we are on the go.

I can assure you all views are my own and Luther did not fake any sleep for the review. Luther and I were sent the Sleepyhead Grand for the purposes of this review. It will certainly be on my list if we have another baby! I really wish IвЂ™d had the Sleepyhead Deluxe for when Luther was smaller. It is suggested as being ideal for transitioning into a bed and I think itвЂ™s going to be perfect for moving Luther from the cot to his own toddler bed when he is ready. It is machine washable and hypoallergenic.

The covers zip up and it forms one breathable and portable place to sleep or rest. It is made up of a flat mattress section with a separate long sausage pillow all the way around it. HeвЂ™ll go to sleep in it, heвЂ™ll stay asleep in it and in the morning heвЂ™ll crawl out of our bed back into it. HeвЂ™ll lie in it whilst I read to him, or to watch Peppa Pig. HeвЂ™s not sleeping through the night like some sort of miracle sleeping spell has been cast, and weвЂ™ve had a funny time with what I think has been the so called 14 month regression, but this bit of kit is super.

The Sleepyhead Grand has been a huge success. He didnвЂ™t stir for two hours which is rare for him when first dropping off. That first evening, I like to call it вЂSleepyhead Grand Day 1вЂ™, I popped Luther in the pod, breastfeed him for ten minutes and he fell asleep. So, after my initial over excitement letвЂ™s get back to a sensible discussion. I didnвЂ™t want to get too excited but I am sure the neighbours saw me dancing with glee and mouthing aeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkk! In the pod he just tried to turn over and the sides stopped him, he flopped back onto his back and straight back to sleep.

He stirred after 45 mins of being asleep which he nearly always doesвЂ¦ if heвЂ™s in the bed I pop him back on the nipple and he goes off to sleep again. IвЂ™d popped him in the Sleepyhead Grand to give him a quick breastfeed before we went out for a walk and he fell asleep! Seriously, I couldnвЂ™t quite believe it. ItвЂ™s very rare for him to fall asleep during the day unless heвЂ™s lulled to sleep in his Greentom buggy. He went to sleep! What witchcraft is this?! Next day I popped Luther in his freshly laundered Sleepyhead in his cot, and he went fast asleep for his morning nap. I didnвЂ™t have time to wash the sheets and the beautiful pale blue toile cover in time for bedtime, so it sat wistfully in the cot next to our bed whilst Luther slept in with us as usual.
