My baby hated being swaddled and after a few nights of trying this, we decided to try a different sleep sack that let his arms be a little more free. I’m sure these would work better for some babies. Feb 26, 2021

I love the newborn size. It fit really well and my son slept so well in it. The zipper up from the bottom was so easy fro diaper changes. The next size up is way too big, I wish they could fix that. Dec 20, 2020

I loved these when he was little, but he grew out of them so fast and decided he wanted his arms free pretty early on. Nov 17, 2020

These work great with a smaller baby when other swaddles may be too big. I used them for the first few weeks home with my baby who came 3 weeks early and he slept so well. Oct 08, 2020

I remember when my son was first born! This was the first thing he slept in that night. He loved it and slept so well! Aug 20, 2020
My little girl hated this and freaked out when we put her in and my hubby thinks it looks like a body bag. Aug 07, 2020

Super easy to use, just zip! My Houdini baby kept breaking her hands out, though. Wish we could've used it more! Aug 03, 2020

This were an absolute must for my daughters first few weeks. Love the zipper for diaper changes. By week three she had outgrown them, so I upgraded her to the SwaddleMe Original in the 0-3 mo size. Aug 03, 2020

Received one of these as a gift and it was our favorite swaddle as first time parents who didn't now how to swaddle. We bought like 4 more for our upcoming baby #2. So easy. Baby LOVES them! Jul 30, 2020
- Nikki S.

Purchased this because we felt the SwaddleMe wasn't working well. Our newborn easily rolled over in this, we decided it was not safe. We went back to the SwaddleMe. Jul 20, 2020

these are amazing. I believe they give our babies a womb like feeling once born Jul 09, 2020

Baby did not like. Will choose a more secure swaddle next time. Apr 06, 2020

Loved these much better than the Velcro ones but could only really use them for the first 2 weeks after birth. My kids weren't swaddle fans after that. Mar 06, 2020

My daughter's arms were always flying so much when sleeping and this swaddle is amazing! As soon as we would put here in it, it would calm her and she was immediately ready for sleep!!! Feb 10, 2020

Perfect if you dont know how to swaddle. However baby grows out of really quick and probably used 6 times. Not worth the price for that many uses. Feb 07, 2020

Great to have if your child can break out of the swaddle blanket! Jan 27, 2020
- Katie N.

These were the greatest thing when we were in the NICU because the zipper came up from the top and the bottom which allowed the nurses to use this and still have a place for our daughter’s monitors. Jan 01, 2020

My child just did not take to this. She’s very active with her arms and felt too free to move around and wake herself, but also frustrated that she was restricted. Just didn’t work for us. Dec 19, 2019
- Marcie L.

Newborn must! Zippers are easier than velcro and the bottom up zipper is genius!!! After the first few nights I went out and bought more of these as one was constantly in the wash pile. Oct 31, 2019
- Meredith W.

My daughter slept great in this! She always would bust out of her swaddle. The neck fit great too! Oct 15, 2019

Loved this better than blanket swaddling baby and they are so comfy as well. Oct 10, 2019

I did not like these swaddles. We bought them when we first brought my LO home. She was able to squeeze her hands up and it just did not seem comfortable or safe to use. It was returned. Sep 20, 2019

User friendly! Insert baby, zip and go! Can be unzipped from top or bottom making changes super easy and keeping baby's arms swaddled. Easy wash, and fold. Minimal/no shrinking. Great value. Aug 04, 2019

Baby didn’t love these. We tried several times and she seemed uncomfortable. I was disappointed because they seem so convenient and easy to use! May 21, 2019

Did not like that it's too restraining. My son loved to sleep with his arms wide open and this was not comfortable for him. Apr 23, 2019

Love! Our preemie babe loves this swaddle pod. We have tried other ways of swaddling him and nothing works as well as these. I bought them on a whim before we brought him home and no regrets! Apr 06, 2019

Used these from night one in the hospital. I’m terrible at swaddling and this saved me, my son loved it. It felt very breathable and washed well. Mar 03, 2019

We used these in the hospital, and when we first brought our baby home until she outgrew them. They seemed to be comforting to her and the double zipper made diaper changes easy. Aug 19, 2020

My little was not a fan, but she also hated being swaddled. Would work great for the newborn who loves being swaddled. May 29, 2019
- Allie B.

We used this for a very short period of time, like first few weeks and that was it. It did keep our daughter cozy during slumber and I would swaddle her in this to nurse at night. Would buy just one! Mar 10, 2018

Very easy to use and light weight. My son slept well in this. My daughter could wiggle her hands out of the top. Sep 24, 2017

These are not adjustable in size. The material is very stretchy. Because of this baby can still move her arms all around and wakes herself up. Also the zipper is intimidating because you don't want to zip up little ones skin. Sep 01, 2017

Great newborn sleep sacks! Very easy to use and both of my girls absolutely loved them. They don't wear them long, but worth it for the short period. Jun 21, 2017
- Sarah C.

For my newborn, this is the best! Easier than re-swaddling every hour after feeding & diapering (if that is a word). Jan 26, 2017

My daughter loved being swaddled. These were great. I would put her in a onesie and then in this swaddlepod. She couldn't get her arms out. I wish they came in a size bigger than newborn though. Jan 20, 2017

These were just okay. It was a nice concept, but it practice, my babies moved around too much in them. Dec 27, 2016

I LOVE the double zippers, size options, and thin fabric. Easy to change diapers, baby is snug and not drowning in fabric, and doesn't overheat! Sep 09, 2016

Used from time we discovered it (about 2 weeks old) until he outgrew it! Jan 21, 2016

Obsessed with these. No velcro to mess with. SO easy and convenient even in the middle of the night. And soft and enough room for them to move but not so much they come out. Jul 19, 2015
- Sarah N.
Seattle, Washington
Super easy to use, which I love, but our DD was a super squirmer and could wiggle her arms out of this pretty easily so it defeated the purpose. May 13, 2015
- Christa V.

Used these when our baby was very small. She liked having her hands available so they did not last long. Oct 31, 2014
