The ideal lovey is soft, not too big, and doesn't make any noise. When your little one starts walking, you'll find that the lovey is small enough that it doesn't get dragged on the ground. It's also the perfect size to tuck into a diaper bag or purse; * Scent is a powerful soother. Mom (or caregiver) should sleep with the lovey for a couple of nights before transferring it to baby. The scent of the loved one will comfort baby during the night, during nap times, while away from the caregiver, or in distressing times like learning a new skill or traveling. * When we adopted our son, my husband and I slept with a couple of loveys close to our skin for several nights, then gave them to our son when we visited him in Guatemala at 2 months and 6 months of age. By the time we were able to bring him home at 11 months of age, he was fully attached to them... and remained attached to them through age 4! He carried them everywhere, slept with them, and slid the edges through his thumb and forefinger to calm himself. * Pro tip: Have two loveys that are exactly alike so that when one is in the wash, your little one has another to hold onto. Use them equally since little ones are sensitive to smell and touch, and they'll prefer one over the other if they aren't equally used. Are there other uses for loveys? * Loveys can be soothing for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, or with certain special needs. The different textures can be calming and keep hands busy. * Loveys can be wonderful memorials of loved ones that have passed... something soft to snuggle with when remembering the loved one. As someone who's lost multiple babies to miscarriage, I know how comforting it is to have something to hold when mourning the loss. * Loveys can be beautiful as home decor. They're small, and they look cute hanging up on a wall, as a table topper for a tiny side table, or tossed over the back of a chair. *********************** This lovey is ready to ship.
