The cocoon is designed to clear the airways in all circumstances, so it replaces the sleeping bag and can be used during sleep.
The edge of the cocoon rolls up naturally, and is positioned at the level of the baby's elbows. Its water-repellent properties allow you to only occasionally wash our small wools in the washing machine on a 30°C wool program, without a tumble dryer. On a daily basis, wipe them with a clean cloth.
