Be sure you have the correct size (infant or child). Put your child's shirt on first and put the arm restraints on over the shirt. The restraints should keep the elbows from bending. If the child's fingers turn cold, it means the restraints are too tight and you need to loosen or adjust them. If the restraints are too loose or tight, adjust them so they fit snugly. If the skin under the arms is red and the adjustment does not help, you may use a little cotton padding to keep the restraints from rubbing the skin when the child moves. Remove the arm restraints at bath time and 2 or 3 times during the day when you can closely supervise your child. While the restraints are off, move the child’s arms around so they do not become stiff. When you bathe your child, look at the skin for reddened areas, especially on the arms, underarms, neck, chest and back. If the skin is chafed or red, apply a little baby lotion.
