These bonding hearts are designed to absorb Mom's unique scent in order to help soothe and comfort infants. Great for preemies, hospitalized newborns and ideal for all babies!
Bonding hearts are worn by a parent, then placed with their baby. This helps comfort babies with the scent of their family and creates a connection even when parents can't be with their children.
One heart is worn by the mom and the other by the baby for 24 hours to ensure their scent is embedded in the material. After that, the hearts are swapped, allowing the mom and baby to sense a part of each other despite physical separation.
Made of double-layer minky fabric for extra softness. Highly absorbent and retains scent for baby's comfort. Mother can also put drops of milk for even longer lasting scent.
Each heart measures approx 5"×5". Care Instructions: Wash before use and as needed per your baby's NICU protocol.
Description
Keep the bonding heart close to your skin by placing it inside your shirt to allow the cloth to pick up your scent, then leave the heart with your baby. They are made as matching pairs; one remains with the baby and the other with the parents which can be swapped from parent to baby during each visit, allowing babies and parents to bond through the scent that is on each heart.
