Never use if the child's head can pass through the neck opening. Do not use with a cot duvet or blanket. Ensure arms are out when the child starts to roll over. Always follow Mamas & Papas safety guidelines.

Troubleshooting
Baby seems uncomfortable or too warm/cold
Adjust room temperature or change baby's clothing layers underneath. The 1.0 Tog is for moderate temperatures; ensure it's appropriate for your environment. Check that the swaddle is not too tight or too loose.
Swaddle is difficult to secure
Ensure the baby is positioned correctly in the swaddle. Lay the baby flat on their back in the swaddle before wrapping. Ensure the zip is fully functional and not obstructed.
Baby is breaking out of the swaddle
Check if the poppers are fully secured. If the baby is transitioning, consider using the arms-out option. Ensure the swaddle size is appropriate for the baby's current height.
