Can this coverlet be used from birth?
Yes, it is suitable for use from birth, and its design is intended to support safe sleep practices for newborns.
How do I wash the coverlet?
It can be machine washed at 40°C on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low heat and warm iron if necessary. Do not bleach or dry clean.
What are the dimensions of the coverlet?
The dimensions are 120 cm in height and 100 cm in width.
Is this coverlet warm enough for winter?
With a 2.5 tog rating, it's designed for moderate temperatures. For colder rooms, it is recommended to use it with additional warm sleepwear for the baby.
What is the 'feet to foot' position?
The 'feet to foot' method is a safe sleep practice where the baby's feet are placed at the bottom of the cot or bed, and the bedding is securely tucked under the mattress on the sides and foot end. This prevents the baby from being able to wriggle too far down under the covers.
What materials is the coverlet made from?
The outer layer is made from bamboo jersey (70% Bamboo Viscose/30% Cotton), the lining is 100% Cotton, and the filling is 100% Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Coverlet feels too thin for winter nights
This coverlet is designed for moderate temperatures (16-20°C). For colder nights, layer with appropriate sleepwear like a sleepsuit or warmer pyjamas, or consider a thicker sleeping bag if preferred for your climate.
Difficulty tucking securely
Ensure the coverlet is positioned correctly with the wider side across the cot and the shorter side at the foot. Tuck the edges firmly under the mattress, creating a snug fit. The dimensions are designed to facilitate this safe tucking method.
Material feels stiff after washing
While designed to maintain softness, ensure you are using the gentle machine wash cycle and tumble drying on low heat as per instructions. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can affect the fabric's feel.
