This helped us transition our baby when he started rolling in the original. I love the zipper design but ultimately Merlin’s magic sleep suit helped us more during this transition period. (Nov 06, 2019)

Both my babies loved this swaddle. Hugged in all the right places. Was great to use during transition out of the swaddle freeing 1 arm at time. Sep 20, 2024

It was time to transition to arms-out for safety, but I was scared. The transition went super smoothly thanks to this great product. It's easy to get a kid in and out and easy for diaper changes, too. Aug 28, 2024

Favorite swaddle, but it's even better that you can unzip the arms off when baby is ready to transition to a sleep sack. So it's a 2 in 1. Very convenient! Apr 22, 2024

Absolutely loved these!!! My baby hated being swaddled with arms down, so this was a life saver. Found that the arms on helped with her startle reflex and as it got better we had her arms out. Mar 20, 2024

This was great for when we were transitioning out of a swaddle. 1st we took out one arm & would alternate arms each night for a while, then we unzipped both but it still gave her comfort w/ the body! Mar 01, 2024

I loved this swaddle! We used it for a long time after my little guy started rolling. I like that the torso is more fitted but the legs are free to move. Feb 26, 2024

The swaddle itself is great and we used it until he outgrew it. We never ended up using the transition sleep zippers. He would fuss way too much when we would leave an arm out. Feb 08, 2024

Great idea for transfer baby to sleeping bag. Jan 26, 2024

My son just made the switch to this size swaddle. We have rotated arms out for naps and he handles them well. We haven't tried overnight yet, but I have high hopes as he loves the swaddle already! Nov 06, 2023

This made the transition out of swaddles seamless. Baby girl loved being able to self soothe Nov 03, 2023

We loved this during the newborn stage. Baby felt snug and It was so much easier to use then a normal swaddle Sep 07, 2023

This was my son’s favorite swaddle. It’s nice and snug around the belly and loose on the bottom. Easy zipper for diaper changes! I like the zip off arm pieces too, great for transitioning to arms out Jul 11, 2023

A smart design for transitioning from swaddling. The zip-off wings feature is handy as baby grows. Soft, breathable fabric, although it tends to run a bit large. A solid choice for new moms Jun 28, 2023

This wasn’t great for me. I loved the ease of the zipper but it didn’t work like I wanted it to and my baby didn’t like it Jun 23, 2023

I started using it for naps to get her used to sleeping with arms out. It really helped my daughter to adjust to not being swaddled. May 27, 2023

This swaddle kept my baby snug but arms free for when she started rolling. She slept great in it! May 08, 2023

Was a little too thin to keep my baby warm and at this point (in size) my baby was rolling over so couldn’t use the swaddle as intended. Apr 14, 2023
This was amazing to transition from a swaddle to a sleep sack while still maintaining sleep. Apr 03, 2023

Loved that the arms zip off and gives more freedom as your child grows. Plenty of leg room and mobility while provided a safe sleeping space for your child. Cleans east and keeps shape. Mar 25, 2023

My 2 year old still sleeps in this every night/nap (we have many) and affectionately refers to it as "sleepy"....enough said! Mar 24, 2023

We love this! It is great to transition baby from the swaddle. Our baby sleeps longer and better when wearing the swaddle up. Mar 06, 2023

We upgraded to this one after we had the one where the arms weren’t detachable. It was great because we could transition out of it by letting his arms loose but he still felt like he was swaddled May 17, 2021

I love how simple and soft it is! I love how you can have one arm out at a time, it makes transitioning so much better! Jan 26, 2021

I like the versatility of this sleep sack. Helps to transition a swaddled baby into more safe and comfortable sleepwear as they learn to escape being wrapped. Sep 19, 2020

This is a great idea for a transitional swaddle. My son did not do well with it, and we ended up just going cold turkey no swaddle with a couple rough nights. They can draw hands to face in this. Jun 20, 2020

Easy to use to transition baby from original SwaddleUp to arms free. Nice neutral color for boy or girl. Mar 10, 2020

This is great for transitioning baby out of the swaddle. My son still felt secure even when we unzipped both sleeves. It made transitioning out of the swaddle easier. Mar 04, 2020

Great for babies who loves arms up and preparing to transition. The zip off arms made our unexpected transition a breeze when my baby decided to start rolling while wearing hers! Jan 29, 2020

I bought a second one after the first one worked so well. Looks hilarious with their arms up by their head but babies apparently like having their hands up by their face. Wings zip off once baby rolls Nov 08, 2019

Transitioned to this after the original one and at 9 month he still loves sleeping in this. He knows it's time for bed when he's in it but gets to have his arms available. He sleeps so well! Nov 02, 2019

My baby HATES this. He looks trapped and uncomfortable and his screams tells me that he feels just how he looks. At least you can take the sleeves off and use it as an overly priced sleep sack. Oct 26, 2019

BEST SWADDLE EVER! My son hated traditional swaddles. He loves having his arms up and I love that when he starts rolling over, I could just unzip and remove the arm part! Nov 21, 2018

This helped us transition from the Swaddle Up original! One arm at a time. Now he sleeps in a much looser sack since he can roll. Jun 18, 2018

Helps transition your baby from a swaddle to a sleep sack. The material is soft and light- similar to jersey fabric. Sep 21, 2017

So glad they have this as a step up from the original smalls! We have not used the zipper arms yet, but babe definitely needed the medium size (4 months and 27" long!). Jun 07, 2017

i like the idea of the zip off arms but my bub moves his hands too much that I can't remove the sleeve Apr 23, 2016

A great transition from the fixed arms Swaddle Up. This allowed us to slowly get him out of the swaddle by opening up one arm at a time. Loved this product! Jan 12, 2016

Makes the transition from swaddling easier. When your baby is starting to roll just unzip one "arm" off and then once they're used to that, unzip the other one. Then transition to a sleep sack! Nov 14, 2014
