Clothing that is easily accessible, safe and cozy for your Preemie
There are many milestones a premature baby can meet in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Out of the many there is one that gets parents and caregivers very excited. That is dressing a Preemie for the very first time!
Once it is decided that a Preemie can wear clothing it means they have successfully maintained their own body temperature with decreased to no additional heat from an isolette. They are able to come out of the isolette and be placed in an open crib with clothing on and swaddled.
Although some premature babies are ready for clothing they may still require the use of medical devices. Not all premature baby clothing on the market is accommodating to medical devices. Hence the reason why I designed our Welcome Preemie NICU Pajama.
Our Welcome Preemie Pajama has been designed with input from parents of preemies, Neonatal ICU Nurses, Neonatologists, Respiratory Therapists, Child Life Specialists and many more all around the world. Our pajama is very NICU and SCN (Special Care Nursery) friendly, easy accessible, comfortable and cozy. Perfect clothing item to dress a Preemie with ease.
The Welcome Preemie Pajama can fit preemies up to 3kg. A Preemie that weighs 3-6lbs can enjoy the comfort of our pajama. It has extra openings to accommodate medical devices used while a baby is being cared for in the Neonatal ICU or Special Care Nursery. The foldable mitts at the end of the sleeves are perfect to contain little hands that grab their wires and tubings. It has a detachable hood for preference. The hood can be used to keep the baby’s head warm and it is lined with a soft velour fabric for baby’s comfort.
As a parent dressing your baby for the first time with medical devices, this pajama allows you to dress your baby with ease and comfort by not having to manipulate your baby's wires and tubings too much. No fear in harming or dislodging anything while you bond with your baby during dressing time.
As a Healthcare Provider our Welcome Preemie Pajama also allows easy access for head to toe assessments without disturbing and causing undue stress in the premature baby population. Our pajama saves you time in undressing a baby in any emergency.
The pajama is currently available in two colors: pink and blue.
Our Welcome Preemie Pajama is a great gift to give to a family with a premature baby. Visit our “shop” for more info.
