Great for summer swaddling
By Anna B. Hawkes
Provides a cooler alternative for swaddling babies in the summer. Easy to use and fits larger babies very well.

Didn’t work for my son
By Anna Knipfer
I was looking for a transition from the ‘miracle blanket’ which my son was quickly outgrowing. This product seemed great, lightweight and big enough. While it definitely was big enough, my son (18 lbs) could easily get out of it. The velcro I found was just not strong enough for my wiggling baby. The material is very nice however so if your child is not a major wiggler or is not super strong yet then this could work for you. I decided to switch straight to a sleep sack (even though I was scared to) and it worked out great!

Did not work for us!
By A4Q96
When we heard about this blanket, we were very excited. Our daughter loves to be swaddled, when we get it right – however, the blankets that we have (even the ones that the hospital used to swaddle her) were not very helpful for easy swaddling. And she works herself loose because she’s getting stronger every day.

We hoped a blanket cut for swaddling with the velcro would be the solution…

However, two problems:

1. It doesn’t fit properly and she works herself loose despite the velcro – the velcro contact patches are very small – there should be a broader strip of velcro to attach to so it is more adjustable. Our daughter is small, and it is just too big on her. She swims in it. We hope it will work better when she gets bigger.

2. Fleece – decent winter solution, but terrible in the summer. And terrible if you keep your house over 60 degrees. If only it came in a lighter material (we haven’t found it).

Oh well… it definitely seems to work for some, so don’t use our review as your only basis.

THAT BEING SAID, HOWEVER, we found two other options:
1) When our kids were very young (-> 1 month) we used a large waffle weave blanket from Target (~$5) and it worked wonderfully… we can wrap it tight, and she does work herself loose after about 3 hours, but it is better than any of the previous solutions.
2) the Amazing Miracle Blanket (another swaddling blanket), was our by far favorite swaddling blanket

One other note about swaddling – whenever she has been properly swaddled (usually by an expert) she loves it… We initially told some folks who have a lot of experience with children that she liked to have her arms loose. the response we got is that most babies behave that way, and it really is the small minority of babies that don’t really like swaddling. Now that we know how to do it properly, we would agree.
