Description
Frederick T. Frog is a versatile, frog-shaped beanbag positioning aid designed by a NICU nurse to help achieve goals for developmentally supportive positioning.
“Freddy” may be placed around the head, neck or hips, or used to position an extremity. Portions of "Freddy” can be adjusted separately for special positioning needs, used as an extra set of hands during procedures or to assist with a facilitative tuck.
The polyethylene beads (beans) are encased in two layers of soft fabric for safety and can be moved to different places within the frog-shaped aid for different uses.
“Freddy” is made from a soft, cotton/polyester blend and is machine washable and dryable.
I bought this for my Premmie boy. He was born at 25 weeks gestation and has always slept with positioning devices at the hospital. I bought these prior to him coming home to help with the transition, and provide him comfort. I am so glad for these affordable options!!!
My baby has had problems sleeping since he came home from the NICU. We looked everywhere to find this, it is the exact same little bean sack the NICU used while he was there. It's helped him so much! It calms him down and helps him settle, in addition to other measures like swaddling and white noise. Very happy we found it! For reference he was 6 weeks premature, and is currently 6 weeks old and 6.5 lbs.
