Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe Microfleece Review

Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe MicrofleeceWe began using the SwaddleMe wrap the day our son came home from the hospital.We have been so thrilled with this product, that we bought the lighter weight cottons ones for the summer and into the fall.Our son has been sleeping soundly through the night (8 hours) since he was 6 weeks old, and I credit that to the tight swaddle this wrap provides.Babies are less likely to wake up if they are snuggly wrapped and can't "startle" themselves with loose hands and legs.I trust this company so much, that I've gone ahead and ordered the Beddie Bye blankets for when he outgrows the SwaddleMe wraps.The wraps wash very well, just one word of caution - before putting the wrap in the washing machine, velcro it closed so that the velcro can't attach itself to other clothes in the washer or dryer.I forgot one time and managed to damage a knit outfit because the velcro created a bunch of pulls on it.

I HIGHLY recommend this product!

Product Description:
Pediatricians recommend swaddling to comfort and soothe newborns, but loose blankets are difficult to keep snug. SwaddleMe wings have Velcrotabs, to wrap up your newborn and stay comfortably in place. As baby grows, wings readjust for a perfect fit. SwaddleMe wings are easily opened to prevent overheating, and the leg pouch can be popped down for a quick diaper checking or changing. SwaddleMe can also be used in the car seat, simply insert car seat harnesses through the access slits!

Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe 100% Cotton Flannel Small Review

Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe 100% Cotton Flannel SmallWhen my daughter was born, I didn't know about swaddling, and it would take me HOURS to get her to sleep! I would feed or rock her in my arms until she falls asleep, then put her in her crib... and she'd flail her arms, wake up and cry, and I had to start all over! What a nightmare!

Then I figured out that since her arms wake her, it would make sense to wrap her in something so she couldn't move them as much... so I started wrapping her in regular receiving blankets. It worked! It became much easier to get her to sleep. But then she wiggled out of those receiving blankets and wake up again.

When she was a little over a month old, somehow I came across SwaddleMe blankets on the Internet and immediately bought it. It worked like a charm! It was so easy to wrap my daughter in it, and it stayed put. My daughter started sleeping so much better!

I wish I found those blankets sooner - it would've saved me from so many sleepless nights!

2 years later, my son was born, and thankfully I already knew about those blankets from the start. He goes to sleep great in the SwaddleMe blanket! Out of curiosity, I tried to put him to sleep without this blanket, and his arms wake him right away - exactly the same as my daughter!

I consider this blanket one of the most important baby items you could buy. It should be a must for a new mother who wants to get some sleep!

Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe 100% Cotton Knit Small Review

Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe 100% Cotton Knit SmallFirst off, I really love this product.It's the quickest, easiest way to swaddle my baby girl, who sleeps much better at night when she's securely wrapped up.We went with this kind of swaddle over a blanket because she has been a "mobile sleeper" since birth, and always managed to wriggle out of our blanket swaddle.Note that these notes below pertain to the small size.

Now - here's what you need to know about sizing, based on my three months of experience and multiple attempts to get it right.
- There are three kinds of swaddle fabrics at the time I'm writing this:
1. Flannel (in the gingham prints)
2. Fleece
3. Cotton jersey (like a t-shirt).This variety has the most options in terms of patterns and colors.

I've arranged them in that order because that's the order of smallest to largest.The flannel variety stretches, well, not at all. It's the smallest of the three types of fabrics, therefore, in terms of fit.(My daughter outgrew her small size swaddle at 13 pounds, after washing it a few times - even though it's supposed to fit up to 14.)The fleece variety does stretch a bit - she's now 15 pounds and this still fits her.

The cotton variety is the stretchiest one - and it REALLY stretches.The first time after I wash and dry it, it's pretty snug.But if I'm lucky enough to get 2 or 3 nights of use out of it, by the third night it's considerably bigger than it was.I just bought another small cotton one and my baby's 15 pounds.

What's more, I just bought a flannel gingham swaddle in large, and that fits her great.(But the cotton variety in large was HUGE and I'm returning it.)Anyway - hope this is helpful to all of you out there.This is a great product and I wish you luck!
