«Associated with the baby sack is an irregularly shaped wrapper made from a number of tanned skins, probably from unborn animals. At irregular intervals along the edges are short ties of the same material. An infant would be wrapped in such a wrapper before being placed in the baby sack. » Vanstone, James W. "The Speck Collection of Montagnais Material Culture from the Lower St. Lawrence Drainage, Quebec." Fieldiana. Anthropology. New Series, No. 5 (October 29, 1982),

    « Associé avec le porte-bébé se retrouve un sac de forme irrégulière fait de plusieurs peaux tannées, probablement de foetus. À intervalles irréguliers le long du rebord se trouvent de courtes bandes de ce même matériel. Un nourrisson devait être entouré dans un tel sac avant d’être placé dans le porte-bébé . » Vanstone, James W.
