How to Use the Tuck Sheet
1. Choose between the 0.2 TOG or 1.0 TOG side on top. 0.2 TOG provides a looser, cooler layer in a warm room. 1.0 TOG provides a firmer, warmer layer in a moderate room.
2. Dress your baby in their regular sleepwear and swaddle. Refer to the Baby Tuck Sheet Dressing Guide included with every new Sheet for guidance on how to choose the right TOGs and layers for your baby.
3. Unzip the Baby Tuck Sheet and slip it over the end of the mattress. The variable zips allow you to adjust the firmness to find the perfect fit for your baby's size or strength of startle reflex.
4. Lay your baby under the open folds with their feet touching the end of the bassinet or cot. Fasten the zip according to the desired firmness. When fastened, you should easily fit two fingers between the Sheet and your baby.
5. Ensure the Sheet does not sit higher than the middle of your baby's chest. The length of the Sheet can be adjusted by tucking excess under the bottom of the mattress. As your baby grows taller, continue to adjust the length of the Sheet.
6. Unfasten the zip to take your baby out of the Sheet. Discontinue use once your baby shows signs of rolling.
7. Always sleep your baby in a safe sleep environment.
