How To Use
- Slip the HugMe Blanket over the end of your baby's mattress. Choose the 1.0 TOG side up for a moderate warmth layer and firm fit in rooms between 19-23°C, or the 2.5 TOG side up for a secure fit and warm layer in 15-20°C rooms. Refer to our Bedding Temperature Guide (included in pack) for more information.
2. Dress your baby in their sleepwear. We recommend one of our TOG-rated Swaddles and Layers (onesies). Use our Bedding Temperature Guide to help you choose the right product combination and TOGs.
3. Unzip the HugMe Blanket. Lay your baby under the open folds, with their feet touching the end of the crib / bedside sleeper / cot.
4. Zip up the blanket, to the desired firmness. You should easily be able to zip up the blanket, and firmly fit two fingers between the sheet and your baby. Once zipped up, ensure the sheet does not come up higher than the middle of your baby's chest. If it is coming up higher, simply tuck more of the sheet under the mattress until the right length is achieved. As your child grows taller, continue to adjust.
5. Unzip the sheet to remove baby from it.
6. Discontinue use once your baby shows signs of rolling over.
