Wondering what medical professionals think of the Tucker Sling? This mom is also a nurse--see what she has to say:

"I'd first like to thank you for sending our Tucker sling so quickly, I couldn't wait to get it for our littles one's sake. As soon as I got it I tried it out, he was sleeping at the time, I was able to place him In the sling without waking him, belly up, he looked and seemed very comfortable. My husband and I feel so at ease now, it has the right incline for his needs and safety. Now he'll be able to sleep and nap as he should plus mom and dad no longer have the scary safety issue of "co-sleeping". I'm a nurse and I want you to know I will recommend this product to my peds MD and the OB/Ped unit in my hospital so more babies can sleep better. We thank so much for the difference you have made, God bless!! Just wonderful!!"

Thank you to Kizzie for sending in her thoughts!

I have been taking it every day for years to keep away the upset stomach I seem to get every night. The drug is a godsend, but I certainly don't want my bones to melt away. What's a girl to do?...
