Better Baby Beds



Why isn't there a baby bed that mimicks the womb?  Why do we make these little tiny naked people go from the warmth and darkness of a mother's body right into the light of day and a crib?  Maybe the bed would have a top.  Maybe it would move like a car, and rock, and bounce.  Maybe it would have sound options, like vaccuum cleaner, and heartbeat, and oceans. The most progressive thing I could find on the internet looked like the photo above.  And that's more ancient than modern.

We are so primitive when it comes to infant care.  I know it's because no one wants to be the first to try any new product what could accidentally kill a child.  But come on, future!

For some reason I had WS: Western Sanctuaries as the title here.  Not sure why, can't find anything on the web on it...
