I have been asked to provide a Pavlik Harness for a newborn, but only
weighing 2 1/2 lbs, the premie size is far too large to even consider trying
to modify it. A Von Rosen would probably work, but most of the suppliers
have the One-size-fits all which I fear would be too large. I seem to
remember a time when the Von Rosen came in many sizes. Any suggestions
would be helpful...Thanks in advance.
