  • Multi-function infant support apparatus and method of using the same
    Patent number: 11369213
    Abstract: A multipurpose support apparatus for an infant is disclosed that includes a rigid planar member having a head end, an intermediate portion and a foot end. The head end and foot end each have a rounded outer edge and the intermediate portion includes right and left sides that have curved concave edges. The edges define the outer periphery of the rigid planar member. A mat following the contour of the rigid planar member is adapted to receive the rigid planar member to be removable from the rigid planar member. A removable cover encloses a flexible container that in turn encloses bean-shaped pellets, or compressible foam filler material. The support apparatus may be used for “Tummy Time” exercises, as an infant lounger, or a breast-feeding support.
