The weighted duvet helps your child to have a good and safe night's sleep

Questions and Answers | Frequently asked

What are the benefits of a gravity mattress?

A weighted duvet gives the child a gentle pressure on the whole body. The duvet covers the child's
body close, so that the arms and legs also find rest - like a wrap, just without restraint.

A weighted duvet is effective in all sleeping positions. Whatever the child prefers to sleep on
back, side or stomach, the weight and the granules stimulate equally well. Especially tumblers have
tossing and turning in sleep, but the weight and envelopment of the duvet can help the child not wake himself.

A weighted blanket is also easy to use. It is simply placed over the child, just like
with a regular duvet. At the same time, it is easy to control the temperature without
disturb sleep. Should the child get too hot, you can gently give air to the legs and feet
feet. If the child feels cold, simply add a blanket or an ordinary down comforter on top
the gravity mattress.

A weighted duvet has no age, so you don't have to fear when the baby/child
grows out of it or starts to get up in bed. For some, restlessness in sleep is one
completed chapter within the first 2 years of the child's life, but for others continues
the need for regulation somewhat longer, and here a gravity mattress can be a great help.

My baby is hot! Can we still use your gravity blanket?

Yes! Many babies and toddlers are inherently warm, which is why we have opted out of lining the duvet. This means that our weighted duvet provides very little heat, and is therefore particularly suitable for hot children, hot summer nights and hot midday naps in the pram, where the child may find it difficult to find peace without the security of a duvet.

This also means that in the cold months it will often be necessary to dress baby in extra nightwear or even put a regular down duvet on top of the weighted duvet. Please note that it is important that the weighted duvet is closest to the child's body in order to achieve the full effect.

Our weighted duvet immediately feels cold on the skin when it is put into use, so we recommend that you make sure that the duvet is nice and warm when it is put into use. Warm it, for example, on a radiator, in a ray of sunlight or over your own body before use.

Your child will thank you.

How much can the child sleep with the weighted duvet?

All our weighted duvets are produced in Oeko-tex certified cotton, which ensures that the textile is free of substances harmful to health.

The duvet's filling consists of plastic granules, which have of course been tested free of harmful chemicals and approved for, among other things, toys and food. The filling is specially selected for its ability to spread over the whole body and create a enveloping effect around the child. We have emphasized that the filling must be quiet, so that even the sensitive child can snuggle with the duvet.

You can therefore use our weighted duvet for the smallest of the family with peace of mind.

Does the duvet make noise?

Our weighted duvet does not rustle, crackle or make noise. It was important for us to develop an almost silent duvet, especially for sensitive babies
and toddlers aged 1-3 easily become disturbed and unsafe by foreign sounds.

The weighted duvet from LALATOTO makes no more noise than an ordinary down duvet, and therefore disturbs neither you nor your sleeping child.
