Gonneke: No, this isn't a joke. There was a vendor demonstrating
the "nursing nest" with her 7 month-old son at the ILCA conference in
Chicago last year. Quite a few people seemed interested in the concept. I
was asked by our nursery educator and manager if this is something we
should have available in the hospital to increase safe sleeping while the
mom/baby were still in the hospital. I personally feel that the baby would
be more likely to fall out of the narrow hospital bed in a nursing nest
than if he were tucked up against his mother. This product decreases the
skin-to-skin interaction between mom and baby. Might be helpful, though,
to make a mom feel more secure co-sleeping at home.
