SAKKO
THE MOST SIMILAR THING TO THE WOMB

Welcome to the internetsite of sakko!
“THERE IS A REASON BEHIND EVERYTHING IN NATURE” Aristotele

“One of the most frustrating problems parents and physicians face is a baby that won’t stop crying. It is not a rare event: approximately 15% to 20% of infants younger than 3 months cry of fuss for more than three hours a day, and 50% of infants cry or fuss two hours a day”. reference

Why are these babies crying? What can we do to help them? Generally the paediatric world cannot offer completely satisfactory answers. Often we are told that the first three months are ‘just’ like this, it will probably be colic, it will pass…

With the sakko we can however calm our babies in less than 30 seconds!

We can stop the crying and offer lasting and regenerating sleep.

Before birth, foetuses experience a continuous symphony of stimulation. They are snugly enveloped by the walls of the uterus, frequently jiggled and surrounded by the constant whoosh of blood coursing through the placental arteries (a noise louder than a vacuum cleaner!). 

Although parents around the world intuitively mimic the rocking, holding, and shushing of the uterus, in our culture we are taught to whisper and tiptoe in the presence of newborns. We are taught that they need quiet and stillness.

At birth, babies are suddenly deprived of the rhythmic, entrancing sensations of the womb. Some newborns handle this abrupt transition without difficulty. However, in the absence of calming uterine rhythms, the irregular, if not jarring, ambient stimuli of their homes may overwhelm infants and provoke persistent crying.

Of course, babies should be protected from chaotic negative over stimulation. In reality however many more young infants in our culture suffer from under stimulation; stimulation intended as positive imitation of the qualities of the uterus.

Research in fact proofs that swaddled babies sleep better, longer and more deeply than not swaddled babies. Furthermore it has been proven that a swaddled infant falls asleep more easily on its back. This is very important because supine sleeping substantially reduces the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).
