The Safer Baby Lovey | Breathable & Soft Security Blanket | Soft Blanket with Holes for Easy Breathing | Gender Neutral Snuggle Toy | Baby Gift for Newborns | Stuffed Plush Animal - 16x16 Inch (White)

We starting looking for a lovey when my son was about 6 months old. This lovey is now a staple during naps and nighttime. I choose this one as it was safe for him to have in the crib with him while sleeping and I didn't have to worry about any suffocation issues as the holes make it easy to breath. We now own 3 of these because I am constantly washing them because he sucks on the arm. I like that its a small size but still enough for him to hold and snuggle. The fabric on the head is very soft and the bottom fabric feels almost like a faux suede material-very soft as well. Its easy for him to hold without being too big and is easy to throw in the diaper bag for a trip to grandma/grandpa's house.We have not had any issues with the head coming off as some of the other reviews discuss but I wash on delicate/cold and line dry. This dries quickly though and if I wash the night before its dry by morning. 6 months later all the lovey's are still going strong.

This is super soft for baby to cuddle with. A bit smaller than I expected but love the holes throughout the length of toy. My little one is not super attached to it yet but does reach for it when she’s in crib so think it’s helping a little with separation anxiety.

I bought this so I felt more comfortable leaving it with my baby to sleep. She loves it, I feel comfortable. It's a win in my book!! I wish this company made more animal choices, because I would buy them all!!!

My daughter needs something touching her face to fall asleep. The big holes in this blanket makes sure there is no suffocation. Having said that I only gave this after my daughter turned 6 so she is able to move the cloth off her face on her own if she needs to

I loved this had holes in it. My little one used to cover her head all the time. It was like it was the only way she could fall asleep. She would put it over face and then sake her arms and legs until we pulled the blanket off her face. We would literally watch her do it. I was always panicking until I got this. And then she stopped putting it on her face and started cuddling with it. Big win!!

I was so excited to receive this item bc our baby loves sleeping with his lovey directly on his face- so we can’t safely let him have it alone in the crib. This is the only product I have found that has the mesh material for breathability for a lovey. So the product is as advertised, the material is a soft/ish mesh that would be breathable if draped across his face.Overall I felt like the product looked a bit rattier then pictured. It felt like the difference between what you see at a fast food commercial and the actual meal you get.. it’s the same pieces but it doesn’t look nearly as good.It’s not the softest material I’ve ever felt, especially for a baby product, but it’s not scratchy or “not soft” either.

This is a good product. It's made of soft, lightweight material and is very breathable. There are many reviews saying it's super soft and others saying it's really rough so I thought I'd chime in with my two cents.The material it's made of is soft and the bear is soft and cuddly! The "problem" comes in with the cut outs. The texture they create with their edges makes the fabric feel a little rougher than it would be without. But it really isn't rough at all. They make it much safer. It really is a give and take. It's one of those things that you just need to try out for yourself to know if it will work or not. It just isn't as soft as the other thick loveys but if it's their first lovey then they won't know the difference, really. The sacrifice is a little comfort for a lot of safety. I know which one I want for my child at this stage of life.

Purchased because my baby needed to hold something during the night and wouldn’t keep a pacifier in. Felt comfortable leaving this with him in his crib since it has holes in it. He doesn’t sleep without it! Purchased 3 so I’m able to rotate them out to wash them. Washed weekly and have held up great!
