I purchased this here and used it from newborn to one year old. I loved the pale blue color, the single-point embroidery, and the denim fabric. The shoulder straps are yellowed. Depending on the item, it might be possible to hide it with a drool cover, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. No instruction manual. Head support and two hoods are also included. ⚠️Please be aware if you have allergies, as I have a cat.
