GARMENT FOR SOOTHING COLIC AND SUPPRESSING STARTLE REFLEX

摘要

A new or alternative swaddling garment that assists in relieving the symptoms of colic by applying pressure around at least part of the abdomen area while also calming a baby's startle reflex. The garment includes weighted and non-weighted portions. The weighted portion(s) apply pressure where required for a soothing effect. The non-weighted portion(s) reduce the risk of overheating and also allow some movement for baby's comfort. Tension created where a non-weighted portion meets a weighted portion and the difference in rigidity between non-weighted and weighted portions give additional colic relief.
