Is the part behind where the baby's head goes soft enough? I have read some reviews saying it's hard. Would the snuggabunny one be better?

It's plastic with a padded cloth cover. It does make it easy to clean. We put a fuzzy blanket over it to add extra padding and cover up the straps. Never had any issues with her being uncomfortable. She really loved it. By the time she was old enough to worry about her getting out of it she was ready for her crib.

This one with the bunny or duck are great. We had twin grand baby boys and the are 5 mos. and slept in them until 4 mos. They were perfect for in the bedroom next to the bed.

It is hard, just some thin material over plastic, and so I always put a soft blanket under my son.

I did not have this exact one. The one I had was hard where baby's head would rest. To fix this problem, I just put some blankets between the cover and the plastic piece. This made it soft.

Yes, this will help that situation also make sure you have the shoulder pads on snug to keep his back from slouching, I believe there's different adjustments on the baby snuggler, last fall my daughter had put their 2 month old baby in the burly also a double with the baby snuggler and it was perfect, hope this helps you to make your decision.

I had my baby in this from a month old. About 8 or 9 pounds. She fell asleep in it immediately. The baby head moves a lot at this age but it didn't bother the baby. And I just cradled her head while I walked

It's fantastic! It's really not that fluffy. The little monkey part that is does come out if it worries you. My baby was a premie and now 3 months old. We bought a super nice bassinet and he still prefers his monkey bed. Honestly... Best purchase ever!

Mine is still an infant but I do believe this will be an issue still. I got the GT though and will use a blanket to prop her up if needed. No big deal in my opinion

I thought it was perfect for night feedings. My baby slept in a co-sleeper next to the bed, and I would just sit up, wrap the Snoogle around me, feed, then get right back to sleep. It was perfect to offer support for the baby, and also my back while I sat up. It's a little too much to deal with for day feedings though, a Boppy was better for that.

Unfortunately the mattress is not firm. But we placed blankets down and swaddle her. She is now 4 months and just moving out of bassinet. I love it and think it's worth the money. My parents didn't like it because they wanted something bigger. But it's easy to move and place next to bed because of the height

Hello... I bought this pillow for my son when he was 4 months old to round out his head a bit and to avoid one of those terrible helmets. It worked!!! He sleeps with is every night and is now a bit over 1 year old. I too was a bit nervous but he LOVED it. A great pillow for the $. If you are nervous and I was too....use it the first couple of times at nap time and check up periodically. then if all goes well and it will use it at night time. Hope this helps you :-) If just for looks and cute, You should wait for 6 months. My baby had a flat head so it was really necessary... either way your baby will love it!! Hello...

Honestly, probably better. (It is large on me, I am about a size 6.) by large, I mean it doesn't hug my sides closely and my twins seem to fall into the side gaps. but my twins are preemies, so they are small, so may work better when they get larger. hoping so, it's really comfortable to nurse with since it has the back pillow. It also has a buckle in front to keep it closed around your waist... It does have a few inches of room to let out on buckle.

Hi Vinny R,The head is semi soft alittle more firm. Buy just one if you can get it, just to try it out. The dual head brushes up & down & in between your teeth. I hope this helps. Have a great evening. V'Netta.

Use Painters Tape - it will reinforce the Snuza if you have a super active little one.My twin girls are both tummy sleepers, and it has never bothered them. The sensor is pretty soft. One of my girls is very active and her Snuza's grip wasn't a match for her backscooting and practicing crawling every night. So now when we clip it on the girls we use a little piece of thin painters tape to help give it staying power. No more false alarms.

The thinner covers conform a little better to the pad. The thicker ones you kind of need toPush on in the middle to fit better the first time but once the baby lies on it, it stays conformed.

i have not purchased the soft Sophie so i cant really compare , but my daughter does not seem to like soft teethers so far and shes almost 6 months now. she really enjoys using this hard version. I hope this helps you choose :) .

I think it's too bulky for a 17 lbs baby, I stopped using ours by 15 lbs when it started looking uncomfortable. Now I just use one of those cute u form pillows to hold babys head when falls asleep in the car, it has soft toys giraffes on the side she can play with while awake, and it's roomy so her head still has room to move.

It's firm but not stiff, my son isnt heavy enough to give it the "sinking" effect when laying on it, he is 24lbs 15 months and sleeps well on it, soft and cushy isn't good for their spines at this age so I opted to wait for the super "comfy" you can cover it with a nice fleece baby blanket & get a similar effect (I did this) hope I answered your concern.

The head support is good. Make sure you lean the seat back with a pool noodle or rolled towel otherwise the seat will be straight up, causing baby's head to drop forward. My baby falls asleep and her head falls to one of the sides which has support. Hope that helps. I would recommend this seat!

Hello, it really depends on your baby's preference. My baby enjoys the wrap when the weather gets chilly and when she feels like napping. She falls asleep as soon as I start walking. When stationary, she gets cramped inside the wrap as she has somewhat grown bigger now. Another reason for her crankiness within the wrap is when the air gets too warm for her liking. Depending on each baby's comfort, I guess you can wrap your baby up as long as your baby likes it.
