Product Description
Help your baby sleep better than you ever imagined with this 100% cotton knit Miracle Blanket.The Miracle Blanket makes it easy to get the perfect swaddle every time, even in the dark! Your baby will sleep better, longer and will be less fussy since he/she will finally get the sleep they (and you) so desperately need. The fabric is a super soft cotton knit selected for several good reasons: It's breathable so that it can be used in warm climates while still being luxurious enough to keep your baby warm in cooler places. It has just enough stretch to absorb your baby's movements without coming undone but it's not so stretchy that it won't stay tight.Most importantly, it stands up to constant use and washing. Like any baby fabric, you should wash it in the cold cycle and dry it on the delicate cycle. Ages 0-4 mos. Beige, Solid Blue,Solid Pink,Blue with Green trim, Yellow with Green trim,Blue Camouflage or Pink Camuflage.

 Our Best Baby Investment October 13, 2008
Ms Margaret
At the risk of sounding like an infomercial or planted endorsement, I have to say this was our all-time best investment for our baby. Our son was born with a very strong startle reflex (aka Moro reflex) and would throw his arms wide like he was falling as soon as we put his down in a crib. It seemed like as soon as we got him to sleep, he'd wake himself up again. We'd watched "The Happiest Baby on the Block" before he was born, and knew that swaddling could help calm a baby. But our son would break out of any blanket we wrapped him in. Thus we ended up resorting to co-sleeping (usually nursing him to sleep) or swinging him to sleep in his carseat (ouch!)
Then a friend asked to try the Miracle Blanket on our son and I said, "Why not?" It worked! The Miracle Blanket was easy to use and our little guy couldn't break out of it. At first he protested for a while. Then he "submitted" and eventually fell asleep. Now when we wrap him in it he actually smiles and falls asleep pretty quickly (we also use the motion of a bouncy seat or a hammock-sleep Amby bed to help transport him to dreamland). I wish we'd discovered this earlier. In the future, this will be our shower gift to all our friends.
Helps contain those flailing arms keeping baby awake August 14, 2008
A. Harris (New York City)
I was swaddling my baby in a regular receiving blanket until I received this as a gift. To be honest I found the receiving blanket was better for the newborn as it was easy to wrap around him and he stayed put. When baby turned 12wks old I started watching for tiredness to set him down for regular naps and this coincided with reading that wide open eyes and flailing, moving limbs are signs of over-stimulation and tiredness. Realising this, I started swaddling him again, this time in the miracle blanket because he was too big and strong for receiving blankets. Now that he does not have legs waving around and fingers poking him in the face he settles down quickly, relaxes and drifts off to sleep while I sit with him talking and singing quietly.
He even settled down and started drifting off to sleep one day after a crying jag that I thought was due to tiredness. I realised that I miscalculated the time and it had been three hours not two since he had last been fed so he was hungry not sleepy! Babies sure can get their message across. But the point is that the blanket settled him when he was not actually tired but was crying for another reason.
I was using the flaps to fold his arms across the front of his body. It was not until I looked up this product to buy one for a friend (and write this review) that I saw his arms are meant to go along his sides. I had thought it had one flap too many but those directions make sense. The long flap is a little long. I put it over him, then under him and just let the excess lay beside him. Sometimes I just fold it over him and push a little of it under his back to hold it down.
I recommend this soft, comfortable miracle blanket and am about to buy one for a friend.
A Real Miracle in our House!! August 3, 2008
EJ (Illinois)
Before my son was born, I had purchased the organic SwaddleMe blanket from Kiddopatamus. (I'm not sure if that's the correct spelling.) We used it though my son never seemed too comfortable in it. I thought that perhaps he just didn't care to be swaddled anymore, so I gave it away. Within the next few weeks, I noticed during his colicky times and even other times when we held him, he felt most comfortable and at peace when we held his crossed hands over his chest. He put them there naturally so when we pressed them down onto his chest, he calmed down right away. I decided to look for the next size up of the SwaddleMe blanket. On that page on Amazon, I noticed a different blanket--this one called the Miracle Blanket. After reading all of the reviews, I decided to try that one instead of the SwaddleMe.
The first time I wrapped him in it, he fussed very briefly (about 10-20 seconds) but then immediately closed his eyes and fell asleep. The next time he seemed a bit fussy and colicky, I wrapped him in it, and he literally closed his eyes immediately, smiled and fell asleep. He sleeps so well at night with that blanket. I've been blessed with him sleeping through the night already (9 weeks old), occasionally getting up once to eat around 2 in the morning. However,before the blanket, that sleep was never a very restful sleep. When he sleeps in the Miracle Blanket, he is as calm as can be. He wakes up in the morning with a smile on his face the minute he sees my smile!
I love this blanket and wish I would've had it with my first and second children. With my daughter and 1st son, I had used just the receiving blankets, but could never get them tight enough. The kids kicked out of them so I mistakenly thought that they didn't like being swaddled. I wonder if they would have reacted differently had I had one of these for them.
If you are considering the Miracle Blanket, I would strongly encourage you to give it a try. You just may be surprised!
for anyone who has a colicky, finicky, or just active baby July 17, 2008
Mom (NC)
What can I say? I think this was one of the most amazing products I have ever bought for my baby when he was colicky. And I have recommended it to many of my friends who also had colicky babies. I specifically mention colic because those of you have colicky babies know that they need to be swaddled and held constantly. We used to have other swaddlers, like the Koala, which worked just fine when he was little, but he eventually learned how to wriggle out of them and they didn't come in bigger sizes. Considering our child was colicky (partly due to acid reflux) for a very long time, we needed to keep him swaddled at night until he was 7 months old. Nothing was big enough or strong enough to hold him except this blanket. It's very easy for parents to figure out how to use (ingenious design, in my opinion) and there's no way the baby can wriggle out of it if you use it right. And it definitely kept our baby much more calm.

C. Vierra (Gilbert, AZ)
This is so much better than the Kiddopotumas Swaddler. There is no velco to scratch the baby's delicate skin and the Miracle Blanket is escape proof! I've tried them all, and this one is the best on the market.
