apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

That's creepy. On first look, I thought the baby had a deformity.

seriously freaky.

*shudder*

yay for detatchment products!

Um, I think it's also the warmth of human touch, not just the weighty pressure that babies like.

I thought the same things everyone's commented on, but after meeting with the owner/inventor of the Zaky, I came away with a different perspective. She told me that the Zaky has great value for preemies and infants in intensive care who need to be cuddled and felt like they were being held. Zaky's can be warmed up then placed with the infants, and have provided the "security" a baby needs in the hospital when they can't aways get it. It was definitely eye-opening to listen to the inventor of the product and hear how the product has helped very young babies. Despite the "creepy" look, the stories were heartwarming.

Hmmm, thanks for your comments coochicoos. That's interesting.
