Having another set of hands when you are a parent always comes in handy.
Tags: baby, parenting, weirdYou know the drill. You’re putting your little one in his crib. He’s asleep — or ALMOST asleep — and you’re gently stroking his stomach or patting his bottom. You slowly stroke his tummy with your hand and rest your hand gently on his body until you feel the gentle breathing of him sleeping…Then…you move your hand ever so slightly, trying to move as slowly as possible so that you don’t wake your sleeping angel, and suddenly — no matter how slowly or carefully you move — wail!!! He wakes up…
If you’ve ever wished for a “hand” to leave behind so that your baby would feel as if you’ve never left the room, your prayers have been answered with the Zaky
.The Zaky is an ergonomic infant pillow designed by a mom to mimic the size, weight, touch, and feel of her hand and forearm to help her baby with comfort, support, protection, and development. The Zaky can help calm your baby and help your baby sleep better through the night.

— THIS WAS DESIGNED BY A MOM TO MIMIC HER OWN HAND AND FOREARM? DID FRED FLINTSTONE GET A SEX CHANGE AND GIVE BIRTH WHEN I WASN’T LOOKING?

How many cases of SIDS will be blamed on these?

The person who designed these deserves to have their baby slap them silly with one or both replacement “arms”.

Ummm.. isn’t there evidence to suggest that if used properly, support during sleep reduces the chance of SIDS? Admittedly, you would probably use this while present, but I don’t see how this is better or worse than other products.

[…] I don’t like the idea of this baby pillow. It simulates human contact when there is none, potentially tampering with a child’s cognitive abilities. […]
