I want to use these dolls for a SUIDS training/how to safely swaddle an infant. Do the arms and legs lay fairly flat? Are they very poseable? Thanks.

the arms are mostly soft and are very moveable. they like wrist to hands and ankle to foot is hard plastic. I think this would be a great baby for training for something like that since they are very life size and looking and all

They need care. Standing may mean adjustment of hips. Sitting means legs at a downward angle or jutting out. Not the best - these are not fully articulated. On the other hand, kids don't seem to care (my grandkids are 1 - 7 yrs. and have played with these for 4 or more years). Dogs seeing the dolls as toys is a larger concern.

Most of the body is cloth over firm stuffing: the top of the chest is the same hard, rubber feeling plastic that the arms and legs are made of. I imagine this is so the dolll can wear tank top kind of clothes. The arms and legs are movable at the junction with the body but do not bend at the elbow or knees. It is possible to put the doll in a sitting position.

The one I ordered had a very scary facial expression. I would suggest a soft doll (all over including face) a rag doll or Raggedy Ann type. You can google handmade baby dolls and find really sweet looking ones that are handmade. Etsy has some I know. My great-aunt had one that she adored and my mother got it on Etsy.

They are pretty durable. The soft body can only be spot cleaned, but the arms, legs, and head can be washed and sanitized as needed. This same company makes an all vinyl doll: http://www.amazon.com/Toys-Newborn-Expressions-May-Vary/dp/B003Y7DQT8/ref=sr_1_3?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1379510794&sr=1-3&keywords=plastic+baby+doll However, my experience has been that preschoolers really love the soft bodied dolls because they are better for "cuddling". At this price point, it may be worth it to enjoy them for a few years and replace them if/when they get too soiled.

Yes and they move very easily especially as compared to other all-vinyl baby dolls-Lola is a very sweet happy baby and a perfect size, great quality from JC.

For the price you pay it is pretty anatomically correct. When we opened the box the feet looked like a real baby. But I think there are other dolls that would look more "real". All and all I think this a great anatomically correct doll for the price.

The doll does not speak she is a doll. Basically like a Barbie Doll. She has jointed knees. So she can be posed if that helps you any. She was perfect for my 8 year old granddaughter. She is not capable of any vocal expression unless you pretend and you bend her legs to pose her. Hope that helps!

I gave this doll to my granddaughter, so I had to ask her. She said that "Yes, the arms and legs can be moved to different positions". She loves her doll!!

Yes, the arms move at the shoulder joint and the legs move at the hip joint. My 8 year old and 3 year old can both change the dolls into different outfits as well as change her diaper with no help. :-)

No the body is not vinyl; it is bean-bagish. No, the arms and legs make no special movements.Try Correll doll "Ema" if you want those features. We have both, and they remain our girls favorite dolls; they have a lot of dolls.

Not too easily. However, some accessories have small parts. I do wish that the dolls were a better design. They don't sit on the furniture very well.

No they are set in bended position. They do not straighten but have movement at base where attached to body. Adorable doll. Still fun to play with and super cute.

These are plush toys like a teddy bear. The legs are bendable where they fit with the body, so they can sit as long as they are propped against something, like a pillow.

Yes, I think this would work very well for training to swaddle an infant. I don't think that it would be very poseable because the top or arms and legs are soft white material and have now moveable joints.
