Please note: While WriggleBum fits all soft change mats between 400mm and 500mm, they are not recommended given they don't provide the support that change tables and solid change mats do. With any change table, mat or pad, the effectiveness of the WriggleBum is influenced by the size and strength of your child.
What are the WriggleBum's measurements?
The bottom belt, which wraps around the change mat or table, extends from 85cm to 140cm long.
The top belt, which wraps around baby's chest, extends from 41cm to 61cm.
How does it work?
See the Set up instructions page for detailed instructions, including a demonstration video, that will show you how to fit and use the WriggleBum.
How effective is it?
The WriggleBum was designed to limit baby's movement enough to enable nappies to be changed much more quickly and easily. We balanced this with the need to ensure baby was comfortable at all times and that the product was easy and quick to use. Babies will still be able to do some wriggling, but the WriggleBum will significantly reduce the amount of wriggling they'll be able to do!
Please note: the WriggleBum is not a safety product. Babies must never be left alone on a change table or change mat, for any length of time, even when
the WriggleBum is fastened.
My baby wriggles a lot with the WriggleBum - what can I do?
A few tweaks make a big difference!
Please check out the set up instructions and make sure:
- the harness is tightly fastened around your change table or mat so that there's no slack and a gap is created between the harness and change mat.
- the top belt is in the centre of your change table/mat.
- the top belt is sitting right under baby's armpits, at the top of their chest.
- the top belt's strap is adjusted so it's quite firm around baby's chest, but not too tight as to be uncomfortable.
- you've attached a toy to the WriggleBum to keep baby busy, which helps them stay put.
Some very wriggly babies may still need
you to keep one hand on them during the change for extra support.
Babies usually stop being so wriggly once the harness has become part of their normal routine, so in time you shouldn’t need to do this.
When should I start using the WriggleBum?
We recommend to start using the WriggleBum when baby is four months old, as this is usually when babies start rolling.
The earlier the WriggleBum is introduced, the quicker baby becomes accustomed to it. Just like a high chair, car seat or pram.
Introducing it earlier also means that they are less likely to become fully-fledged wrigglebums when they're older!
What age is the WriggleBum for?
The WriggleBum was designed for babies aged 4-18 months, and is most effective for this age range.
It can, however, be used with toddlers up to 24 months(+), depending on the child's size.
The top belt's maximum circumference is 60cm.
How do I wash it?
Clip all the buckles together and throw in the machine on a cool cycle (30°C) with like colours.
