AR Pillow

Recently, I was searching for a way to transition Clara and Anna from sleeping in their carseats to sleeping in their crib. They slept in their carseats for three months due to reflux. Both girls would just scream and scream if placed in their cribs on their backs. Desperate for sleep, Mike and I gave in and let them sleep in their carseats, which was definitely not a good long-term solution...

While researching on the Internet for possible solutions I found AR Pillow. I quickly contacted the company and was thrilled when they agreed to send a pillow for us to review. They also sent along one of their elevated changing pads as well.


Anna says, "Mom, quit taking pictures, I'm trying to sleep!"  Notice the green pillow cover.  The AR Pillow comes with this case to protect the pillow.  You can just remove the case for washing.

We setup the pillow in Anna's crib and she took a nap on it that afternoon. The transition was easy because she was still propped (which is why the carseat was so effective) and didn't have the reflux issues that made her scream. I was thrilled. We ordered another AR Pillow for Clara soon after and she has transitioned easily as well.

The AR Pillow attaches to the crib rails using velcro side pieces. After you place the baby on the wedge, you then velcro them on to the pillow around their tummy and then a harness type feature goes between their legs and velcros to each side. This is for safety reasons to keep the baby from slipping down on the pillow or becoming wedged between the pillow and the crib.


This isn't the best picture of Clara -- she was trying to sleep too!  However, you can see the white band around one of the crib rails.  That is the velcro side piece that secures the pillow to the crib. 

We've had great success with the AR Pillow and I highly recommend it to other parents who are dealing with reflux issues and/or trying to transition their children from sleeping in their carseat to the crib.

AR Pillow has graciously agreed to giveaway a nurser, changing station, AR Infant Pillow, and AR adult/child wedge to four lucky Sticky Feet readers.  All you need to do is click over to the AR Pillow website and select which of the three products you would like to win.  Leave the name of the product in a comment and include a way for me to contact you.  That's it!

Winner will be selected via Random.org on January 31!

I would love to have an AR pillow. It says it helps with colic and reflux. Ava has had reflux and colic since about 2 weeks of age and it is not pleasant. I would have loved to have that pillow with Gus too. I follow your blog.

Do you know if your area has a birth to 3 program that Clara could recieve therapies through. We have Child & Family Connections here. It is really nice because the therapists come to your house. Here is the # I have and I'm sure they could tell you more. 1-888-459-5437. Hope you do have a program. Glad the girls are doing well otherwise.

Wow, the infant pillow looks great! I would love to have one (or two, actually). :) Our son had reflux, and I'm guessing at least one of our twinnies will have it too. Great giveaway!

The infant pillow looks like it would work wonderfully! My son had very bad reflux and I wish we'd had one of those for him. I'm expecting again in April and think that would be a lifesaver if this little one has reflux too.

I'd like to try the infant pillow for my daughter. The pediatrician suggested elevating the head of the mattress, and she slipped down to the bottom in a heap!

OOoooh...I would SO love this Baby AR Pillow. My third son was born in September, and has been sleeping for the last month and a half in his swing or carseat due to reflux. To say I miss sleep is an understatement. Great giveaway!

MissMVK said...

If I don't win one, I'm going to buy one (or two actually)! They look awesome and so comfy for the kiddos. I'm in full nesting mode as you well know. Thanks for this great product suggestion Jamie!

MissMVK said...

Oops, I forgot to leave the name of the product. I would LOVE a Baby AR Pillow! If I win one, I will buy another! Piglet had reflux, but mostly he just did better sleeping when propped up a bit. Thanks for this great giveaway!

This might be a bit off-topic but I believe there are a lot of smokers here on www.blogger.com. I decided to find a good manufacturer of electronic cigarettes. I'm done with paying so much for normal smokes.A friend recommended [url=http://www.insanereleases.info/greensmokef.html]G Smoke[/url] According to their website this is how they described their product:
"Green Smoke offers quality Electronic cigarettes with disposable cartridges that produce the highest smoke volume in the industry. With a variety of flavors and nicotine levels, Green Smoke's™ patented product offers convenience and performance that is unmatched. G Smoke products have been independently tested for safety."
I'm thinking of buying them. Anyone else have experience with this e-cigarette?

The French gourmet cheese Bleu d'Auvergne has a wonderful aroma, a rich taste; the saltiness increases with the incidence of veining. The overall flavor is piquant but not overly sharp. Bleu d'Auvergne started life as an imitation of Roquefort, using cow's milk in place of sheep's milk. Legend has it that a peasant, around 1845, decided to inject his cheese with a blue mold that he found growing on his left-over bread (the motto being, waste not, want not). And thus, the gourmet cheese Bleu d'Auvergne was born. This French gourmet blue cheese comes from the region of Auvergne and the cheese is made from milk of Salers and Aubrac cows. The rind is very thin and so the cheese is usually wrapped in foil. The cheese is rich and creamy with a pale yellow color and scattered holes and well-defined greenish-blue veining. We cut and wrap this cheese in wedge of 8 ounces and 1 pound.
