A must for new babies December 2, 2008
S. Bell (Denver, CO USA)
These are great for babies that love to be swaddled. They are fast and easy. We couldn't figure out how to use the bottom "release" portion for easier diaper changes though and you do have to be careful to "close" all the velcro tabs when washing or they get kind of mangled.
A bit pricey, but effective November 5, 2008

These work great to keep babies soothed and comforted to help them fall asleep; babies who would otherwise flail their arms and keep themselves awake. You decide! My twins just outgrew the small size, so I'm upgrading to medium.
4 stars only because of the price.

There is a stage with my babies during the wiggle stage but at the same time they still liked to be swaddled. This was perfect and my kids loved it. Diaper changing was a lot easier and faster and it kept them cozy:) gr8 buy worth trying!
great for little ones October 15, 2008

This is a godsend for new parents. Newborns love to be swaddled, but it's easy to get frustrated with learning this technique with a traditional blanket. This makes it so easy. Our little "Houdini" makes his way out of this with his arms, but it takes him at least a couple of hours.
One of the true must-have items for new parents September 16, 2008

A receiving blanket might work as a swaddler for, oh, maybe the first two weeks, but after that a baby will be strong enough to loosen the swaddling and startle themselves awake. That's where this comes in. With the same basic design concept as a swaddling blanket but thoughtfully placed Velcro and a leg pouch, this is a much more secure way to swaddle your baby. The designers were thoughtful in making sure that any Velcro that faces your baby is the soft loop side. There are two slight flaws, which in no way make this anything less than a lifesaver: the leg pouch that "pops down for easy diaper changes" is a nice concept but is secured by Velcro that is loud and will wake your baby up if you open it. It's also rather difficult to get the leg pouch re-secured as you're having to tuck it back under the arm wings and then line up the Velcro again. Secondly, the Velcro does wear out but for us it was right about when the baby outgrew it so not such a big deal -- just won't be hanging onto it for any future children. At $10 each, these are not a huge expenditure and it's definitely worth having several on hand.
