Product Description
Swaddling Soothes Newborns and Reduces Symptoms of Colic by recreating the familiar, comforting snugness of the womb. Swaddling also reduces the incidence of the startle reflex, which can upset babies and increase the frequency of waking and crying. Swaddling Can Reduce the Risk of SIDS and help babies sleep through the night. New research shows that swaddling can help reduce the risk of SIDS by promoting better sleep when infants are on their backs. Pediatricians Have Long Recommended Swaddling to soothe and comfort newborns, but loose blankets do not stay securely in place. The SwaddleMe provides the simplest, most effective way to swaddle newborns. Swaddling Can Reduce the Risk of SIDS and help babies sleep through the night. New research shows that swaddling can help reduce the risk of SIDS by promoting better sleep when infants are on their backs. PREEMIE 3-7 pounds SMALL 7-14 pounds LARGE 15-22 pounds

Summary: Good, but I've had better! 2008-05-26
Comment: We bought this swaddler, along with the miracle blanket. Even though the miracle blanket is more expensive, we believe it works better and we will be able to use it longer. The Swaddle me cotton swaddler is very small and it does stretch, but our baby will outgrow it quickly. It also is hard to get the swaddle just right, because if you make it super tight, it seems too tight, but otherwise the baby's hands come out of it easily.

Summary: A Life Saver! 2008-04-27
Comment: This blanket is a life saver! We went from 2 hour sleep stretches to 6 hours. My son could break out of a regular swaddling blanket within a couple minutes, but the Swaddleme blanket keeps with swaddled all night long.

Summary: Great product 2008-04-25
Comment: Excellent product. The only swaddle blanket my kids couldn't escape. Be careful not to over-clothe/wrap infants with any swaddle blanket.

Summary: Essential newborn lifesaver 2008-04-05
Comment: This is a fabulous and ingenious product. Let's face it, even the best burrito-wrappers (swaddlers) out there don't want to mess with that process at 3 am! And for the majority of us who are less-than-stellar at the technique, this is a 24/7 lifesaver!
Key points:
--If you have a strong infant like our daughter, she will have the strength bust out of a wrapped-blanket swaddle. The SwaddleMe's velcro prevents this. Even with the SwaddleMe, our daughter could get her hand up and out of the top, but this didn't preclude the soothing effect of the swaddle.
--This knit fabric version (SwaddleMe also comes in flannel and fleece-y type fabric) is the easiest to use - fabric itself stretches, unlike the flannel, so you can get it really tight.
--large "fuzzy-side" velcro patches allow for free-form positioning of the "loop-side" velcro tabs for a perfect, tight fit.
--you MUST follow instructions and fasten down the loop-side velcro tabs before laundering. For the one on the bottom in particular, you must stretch the fuzzy tab to completely cover all the loops. THe instructions clearly outline this as a necessity, but I draw attention to the bottom tab in particular - otherwise, you'll hava lot of pilled and snagged laundry. THis is not a problem, but a detail to which you must dilligently attend.
--This, plus a snap-front undershirt and a diaper is all you need to clothe a newborn for at least the first four weeks. Simple and easy "uniform."
--Note: this is a very heavy-weight knit fabric. Perfect for cooler weather (our daughter was born in October), but I think it might be a bit hot in summer. Strange as this may sound, I'd buy the flannel if you have a summer baby, as it is actually lighter weight than the knit.
I give it four stars because the lower fuzzy side tab should be more generous in size so that one does not have to be so dilligent as to stretch it to ensure all loops are covered. Otherwise, it is absolute perfection and completely essential! Not to mention half the price of the Halo sleep sacks. In addition, my husband found the fuzzy-side laundering tab used to cover the bottom loops when laundering really annoying, because it always flops down and covers the loops WHENEVER it is realeased (e.g. EVERY diaper change). This did not bother me, but he found it irritating (though far from a deal-breaker - my husband LOVES the SwaddleMe).
Another note: the Halo sleep sack with swaddle feature will NOT bind an infant as tightly as the SwaddleMe - it is not a substitute. The knit is much thinner/more flexible, and the resulting wrap is not as tight. The Halo ss w/ swaddle is, however, useful when transitioning an infant out of swaddling (i.e., the SwaddleMe) and into a sleep sack (which the Halo w/ swaddle can become, as the swaddle portion is removable) as it is a softer-feeling, less restrictive swaddle. We used this for about two weeks, when our daughter was done w/ the SwaddleMes, but before she was comfortable in a sleep sack alone.
Essential, top-notch baby product. We had four in rotation - two knit and two flannel. The small size is plenty large for the early period in an infant's life in which swaddling is required. The large size is really enormous, so unless you have an unusually enormous newborn, get the small.

Summary: baby shower gift 2008-02-22
Comment: i got this for a co-worker who was having a baby boy - she used it a lot for swaddling his first few months and really liked it. After he out grew it she used it as a regular blanket, and still really liked it.
