Life vests for infants?

Do they make these? We're going to Puerto Rico with DD in a week and a half and I'm nervous to even hold her in the ocean or pool. I'd feel so much better if she had a life vest. She's only 5 months old.

We bought DD's at West Marine last year
It is way too big - but it was the only size they have for infants.

Leaps and Bounds has them too
Here's their link

Thanks. She's 16 pounds though so I don't know if she is too small. I don't want her slipping out of it either. How big was your DD when you used it?

She was 2 months old, I think.
We just put it on her while we had her on the boat.
She will be using it again this summer - so she will be 11-12 months old.

And my DD is 19-20 lbs

I bought one for my son a few years ago at Target. He looked so small in it but it worked great! I only spent about $15 on it. I let go of him in the lake and it held his head up so I trusted it. He was about 17 or 18 pounds and around 27 inches in this picture.
