XP: Owners of Boppy Noggin Nest Head Support

Anyone use one of these?  I am a first time (paranoid) Mommy and I am convinced DD is getting a slight flat spot on the back of her head.  We do tummy time and I try to keep her off her back as much as possible during the day.  I think she is going through a growth spurt right now because all she wants to do is sleep (and back is best!).  She naps in her swing or on the couch during the day, I was thinking this head support would be good for daytime use . . . any thoughts/opinions would be appreciated!TIA!!

  • I recently purchased it because LO has a flat head :(   I only use it for naps in the swing when I'm in the same room or when he's playing on his back on the activity mat.  I haven't noticed a difference yet but I only have been using it for a week.  Just and FYI though, I went to Buy Buy Baby and they said they were told to take them off the floor...the lady didn't know why.  I havent heard anything else about it though.  GL!

  • Yes, we've been using the NN for about a month now. I don't see any improvement, yet the flatness isn't getting worse. I don't use it in his crib overnight because it's not approved for sleep, although he does nap on it if he's in his swing/bouncer/RNP and I can keep a close eye on him.

  • Our physical therapist actually recommended this to us and we got it. She said it relieves the pressure off of the spot of the head that is flattening. We used it in the bouncy seat, crib (yes we let her sleep in it, I sleep in the same room as her), car seat etc. Our daughters flat spot is resolved. Granted it wasn't all due to the NN, but it certainly helped the spot from getting any worse. We tried to keep her off her back as much as possible. Tummy time and wearing her in the bjorn, sitting with her in the bumbo etc.
