I can not afford the tucker sling, my baby is approx. 13 pounds now and going to be moved to his big bed. I have a wedge.. but was wondering if anyone had instructions on how to make a tucker sling or had detailed pictures of one that i could try to make one out of old sheets??? thanks for any help… my baby has been sleeping in a pumpkin seat and it seems to help with his reflux.. so i hope to be able to continue once he is in his big bed.. becky

I made one. Don’t know if I infrindged on any patents but I didn’t have a true “tucker” just the one they sent us home with from the hospital. It has ties that tie to the crib. But you could put velcro on it so it sticks to the wedge. I don’t know how to post pictures so just send me your email address and i will send you a picture. I know he will feel better on his tummy on an angle. Mine slept for 6 hours straight in the hospital when we first tried it. Sarah

Ohh yeah becky, put a shout out, maybe somebody has one they don’t need anymore??? That would be nice, considering how hard it is to get anything done with a little refluxer, let alone sew!
