Do You Swaddle?


DH and I are self-proclaimed swaddle experts. We have been overnight-swaddling Cooper since day one. He is a wiggler and sleeps GREAT when he's snugly wrapped (10 to 11 hours a night now, thankyouverymuch).

We've used pretty much all the popular blankets, and tried different wrapping techniques. So I thought I might save you Nesties some sleepless nights - and some money - and share the ones we like best:

THE MIRACLE BLANKET
This thing truly is a miracle... a must-have... the answer. It's essentially a straight-jacket for babies and you might feel bad pinning your kid down with this one, but oh boy does it work. This blanket's key feature is the interior flap system that helps prevent little squirmers (like my son) from wriggling their arms loose and waking. We got Cooper to sleep 11 hours with this one! $29.95, miracleblanket.com
