swaddling question - ready made swaddles  

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
My baby, like most, loves to be swaddled. But I'm really bad at it and she's great at getting herself loose and then crying because of it. I saw a while back that there are ready-made-swaddles out there. Just kind of like pouches that baby is put into and, voila, nice tight swaddle without a blanket to get all tangled up in. I even saw one that used velcro to hold together. The problem is I don't remember where I saw these but want to get some desperately. Anyone where i can find these online? thanks!

I saw one at Target for like $10! Way cheaper than online. I was thinking about getting one this time, but AJ hated to have his arms wrapped up. He loved being able to suck on his hands. From the u/s pic I have, Evan will be the same way...

My friend who is a postpartum doula says the best, tightest, hardest-to-break-out-of swaddle is the one Dr. Harvey Karp describes in his book The Happiest Baby on the Block.

Enjoy your new little one!

warmly,

My little one loves to be swaddled too.. my gripe is that the darn baby blankets are too small to wrap a good baby burrito properly!

None of mine liked to be swaddled.

My midwife told me swaddling helps the baby to feel secure as when they were in the womb; they do not know what to do with the extra space around them.
