Perfect for warmer weather
I love this swaddler. The fleecy kinds were great in March, but as it warmed up, we transitioned to this lighter-weight cotton swaddler. I'd buy it again. Our baby only works her way out of it if we put it on her loosely. (You have to pull the first side taut and tuck it under your baby to keep it secure. When we do that she can't get out.)
Also, its easy to wash, and we let it air dry to save the velcro (& energy.) Since it's light, it dries quickly.
To give you an idea of size, my daughter's 3 months old, 24in, 13lbs and I'm only just now back to buy the next size up of this swaddler. She's used it since she was a newborn and hasn't quite outgrown it yet, but she's close.
Best baby item we own
Swaddling vs. Not Swaddling
We didn't swaddle our baby for the first week or so, mostly because we couldn't figure it out. It is *not* hard to figure out mind you, but we were slightly overwhelmed and seriously sleep deprived parents. During that week, baby would wake up soon after falling asleep over and over. Once we took five seconds to figure out how to get him into a nice snug swaddle, we experienced our first five hour stretch of sleep (breastfed baby)! Since then, we've tried to put him down without the swaddler, but flailing arms soon wake him up.
Organic Cotton vs. Non-Organic Cotton vs. Bamboo
The non-organic ones have shrunk and toughened. The bamboo is very soft and lightweight, but baby is able to get out of it fairly easily. The organics are my favorite by far because they have kept their shape, size, and softness after daily washings (warm water). Bonus is that they also have cute little bear velcro closures whereas the others do not and organic farming is good for the environment.
I recommend getting a few because if baby spits up on it, it is good to have a dry spare ready to go in the middle of the night.
Our baby sleeps with a diaper and this swaddler. (Summer)
Absolutely love this!
I purchased one of these for my daughter when she was born. This is so easy to use and so soft and comfortable. My daughter started moving her hands or feet when she slept and kept waking herself up. So, i decided to use this on her, not only for her comfort but so she wouldnt wake herself up. It worked. I live in Arizona so the material is not so thick to where she'd be too hot. Plus when she was in it, she was easier to pick up and hold.
