Ultimate Swaddle and Hat Newborn Gift Set - Little Fox and Little Dots, SeaCrystal

This blanket works really well. We received one as a gift and used that one from the time we brought our baby girl home... It worked soooo well, we needed a backup! After the baby outgrows being swaddled, it makes a great lightweight blanket. It keeps it's shape and remains soft. We have used the first one for 4 months and wash it often. The colors are great too!

We have purchase many of these for our kids, and now buy them for any friends who are having their first child. These are much bigger than normal ones, and make swaddling much easier, and the swaddle lasts much longer, as it is harder for the baby to accidentally wiggle free. The wear well, wash easily and feel very soft. Dont waste your time or money on smaller receiveing blankets, as they dont work as well as this does.

These swaddle designs flannel blankets are perfect. They're large enough for a good swaddle, they're a wonderful light-to-medium thickness that doesn't seem too hot even in warmer months, they're very soft, and they're beautiful. Ours traveled everywhere with our infant until we stopped swaddling her, and now we use them in her stroller etc.

This is our 6th Swaddle Designs blanket, two for each of our three kids. We have also given away several as presents. They are, by far, the best swaddle blankets we have seen or tried, and the feedback from our gift recipients has been similar. They are generous in size, making the swaddling process easier and the swaddle itself tighter without the need for any additional velcro, etc. The blankets are amazingly soft and comfy, and just get more so with washing and love. The blankets are still in active use as favored blankies/lovies for our 5 year old and 2 year old, and we are sure the new baby will love his just as much. The recent addition of a large tag with simple, clear and pictured directions for swaddling is a genius move for sleep deprived new parents.

I was given a swaddle designs blanket as a gift and thought, What on earth am I going to do with a blanket this big? Well, after about my baby's third week of life, I realized how awesome this blanket was. It is the only blanket we can use for swaddling because, of course, our baby got bigger and stronger. Our little guy kicks and wiggles out of our other receiving blankets. Once we realized how great this blanket is, we bought two more--a regular one and a light weight one (for hot days). I am a penny pincher, but also a smart shopper. It makes sense to buy a good product that will work for the long term.
