Our baby’s favorite swaddle
Prior to this swaddle we tried wrapping in a muslin blanket, the Halo, and SwaddleMe. When our son was about 2 months old (1 month adjusted) we tried the Swaddle Up. The biggest issues we were having were:
1. The process of swaddling him got him energized and 2. He would struggle to free his hands rather than fall asleep.
This swaddle has resolved both of those issues. It’s so simple and quick to zip this up so he doesn’t get frustrated and start to fuss. And since he can reach his hand to suck on it (through the fabric) he doesn’t try to break out of it. The second zipper makes diaper changes really easy too. It used to take 30-45 minutes to get him back to sleep after nighttime feedings and now it’s 10-15 mins. No more hearing him straining and wiggling trying to break out of the swaddle.
Since every baby is different, it might be worth it to start with 1 and then get more if you find they work for your baby. We were going to try the Zipadee next but were hesitant due to how loose the fabric looked. Glad we tried Swaddle Up first!
