A must for a mom and baby hospital bag is "The Joeyband" it's a unique product designed specifically to support skin - to - skin and breastfeeding. What's awesome about the Joey band is the four way stretch that mimics the womb, gentle on C - Section scar, prevents infant falls, reduces reflux and colic.
I had the pleasure of using the Joeyband with Harper Rose, she enjoys snuggles and cuddles, which made it easy to keep her close to me, asleep while we do some skin - to - skin. Babies love the deep pressure touch that the Joeyband offers and helps ease the transition from womb to world. You can purchase your own from Flourish Sleep an exclusive distributor of the Joeyband in South Africa.

Until Next Time
