We could yell for hours about how great the Miracle Blanket is, but when it comes down to it, you might think it's just a sales pitch. But when our customers speak, that's something to listen to!

Our 2nd daughter was born in December and we cannot say enough good things about it [the Miracle Blanket]. I've told my friends, my OB/GYN and first time Grandmothers that I know. I just wish I had it when my first daughter was born. It truly is a miracle. My 5 month old has slept through the night from 5 weeks. Need I say more? Thank you, thank you, thank you!

my son loves the blanket, he gets a warm fuzzy look on his face every time I put him in it. when he is fussy and just can't seem to get comfortable no matter who holds him and how, just wrap him in the blanket and he falls right asleep. In a word, this blanket truly is a "miracle"

I just wanted to write how much I love this product. I am a mother of twin girls. I bought the miracle blanket when they were a few weeks old. I was so excited when i got the blankets. The first night I got them my baby girls slept for 6 hours!!!! Even at a few weeks old they were sleeping WONDERFULLY!! I believe that it was because of the MiracleBlanket. The girls loved being swaddled so much that I continued to swaddle them till they were 8 months old. Now that they are 10months old they are still great sleepers. I think that the miracle blanket helped my twin girls get into a sleeping routine that they have been able to continue. I just wish I would have found these blankets when I had my first child. I have a dear friend who is having a baby soon and I am buying two for her. Thankx again for a Wonderful product.

Hi Mike,
I wanted to let you know that your blanket worked wonders for me and my little girl! She slept through the night in it from the time she was 9 months old until I took her out of it at 15 weeks last weekend. She still sleeps through the night now without the blanket. I was dreading the day I had to take it away but so far so good. It truly is amazing! I have now passed it on to a friend at work who has had a struggle with a fussy baby and now she is getting about 7 hours of sleep a night! I tell everyone I know about this blanket. I also called the hospital where I delivered (Norton Suburban) and told them about it today. Hopefully someone will call you for a sample and literature. Every new mom needs one of these blankets!!!

I just wanted to thank you for making a great product. Our 8 week old has been sleeping through the night for 2 weeks now. She just does not sleep well if she is not swaddled tightly. It is much easier to swaddle her with your blanket!
Thank you,

I just wanted you to know that I have 2 of your Miracle Blankets now and LOVE them. My daughter slept through the night for the first time at 8 weeks (when we received our Miracle blanket). She is now almost 4 months old and still loves to be swaddled for naps and bedtime. She gives me the biggest smile after I swaddled her up as if she's saying, "Thanks Mommy!" I only wish I had the blanket for my older son, who was a preemie with an underdeveloped nervous system. He had the hardest time settling down to sleep, and the Miracle Blanket would have worked wonders on him I'm sure.
Sincerely,
Stacy

I just wanted to let you know how truly wonderful the miracle blanket is! I have had it for 3 weeks and my baby is actually sleeping at night. He only wakes up once a night and loves it when it I put him in it. I am working on him sleeping in it during the day for naps. It is truly a miracle blanket and I have told my doctor and everyone about it! Thank you so much!

Hello!
I just wanted to get back w/ you about my blanket (sorry it took so long). I absolutely love it! Max slept the longest span the first night I used it! Some nights he has the hardest time falling asleep ... he gets real jerky movements and hits himself in the face and stuff! Then, I swaddle and he's out like a light. I want to thank you for taking care of us! I really appreciate it....it means alot! I wanted to attach a picture of Max in his blanket ... he is sitting in his vibrating chair. I love the fact that his feet can be out of it so he can still swing, and sit in bouncy chairs.
Thank you soooo much for your kindness!
Take care,

I bought my first blanket before my 3rd child was born, and used it from day one in the hospital. I am buying 2 more today; one for a pregnant friend as her baby gift, and another for myself because another newly pregnant friend assured me she would buy both of mine once she had her baby ... so I consider it no expense.
I just love it! I swaddled my first 2 kids with standard blankets but even though I was good at it by most standards, it was never anywhere close to this. This is easy and escape proof, and my baby LOVES to get wrapped. He starts cooing the moment we start tucking his arms ... even if he was just in an all-out "I'm overtired now, you grownups really messed up!" wailing the second before.

The day I received our miracle blanket in the mail, I washed it so that we could use it that night. My baby had been sleeping 4-6 hours straight at night, but with the Miracle Blanket he slept almost 9 hours! It calms him when he's upset just as you advertise. I love this product!!! And last time I ordered there were backorders and your customer service was great. Thank you!!!

My pediatrician raved about her MB to me just this morning after hearing that my three week old is beginning to get restless at night. She has a two month old (her fourth child), and says that the Miracle Blanket really has been a miracle for her, so I'm going to try one! My first daughter was fussy, and I will try anything to make sure that we don't repeat that experience with my second daughter!

WoW!!! Thanks, I appreciate that. It's nice to have an extra one -- just in case. But I'll keep your address in mind.
Thanks again for your excellent service. If there's anything I would tell my friends is how MB has helped us -- and how wonderful it is to deal with you/your company. I have no regrets investing in the MB.
I wish you continued success, you deserve it for all the good you do.

This blanket speaks for itself! We have been blessed with a pretty easy baby...but when we wrap her up in her blanket you can tell how "content" she is, especially if she has been crying. Plus it is a highly breathable material--so it keeps the baby cool and warm.

A LETTER FORWARDED TO US FROM ONE OF OUR RESELLERS' CUSTOMERS:
I absolutely love your products... and swear by the following two: The Miracle Blanket and the Podee Bottles. I have told all of my friends about them and am getting the Miracle Blankets for my neighbor's baby shower!
We have twin 6 month old girls and I don't know what we would have done without these two products. They have made a huge difference in how easily our lives run. We are still swaddling the girls, and wish that there was a "plus size" Miracle Blanket!
I am sending a picture of the girls to you... using both products. I just thought that you would get a kick out of it!

I hope you don't mind but I e-mailed my local TV stations about your blanket. They are WAVE-3, WLKY 32, WHAS 11, and FOX 41 in case someone does really call.
I am a true believer in your blanket and think more people need to know about it!
Olivia has slept through the night the past 3 nights that I have had the blanket. I don't worry about her getting her arms out at night and I know it will stay bundled! I wish I had known weeks ago about this blanket. If I can spread the word and help other moms that would be wonderful!
Here is what I wrote to them:
I wanted to give you a wonderful idea for a story. It's called the Miracle Blanket! This would be a hot story for all new mothers and mothers to be! Please, Please, Please check out this web site...Miracleblanket.com.
Please don't stop reading, this is a great product and so many people can benefit from it if only they knew it existed. I wish I had found it weeks earlier! I could have avoided many stressful nights.
I have a 9 week old baby who hated her crib and I can't tell you how many nights I was up from 10:00 at night to 3:00 in the morning ready to pull my hair out because I could not get her to sleep in her crib. As soon as my head hit the pillow, she screamed! I thought I was going to end up in the looney bin! Finally after trying everything, time after time, I tried swaddling her again and TADA!!! she slept in her crib.
So where does the Miracle Blanket come in you ask? My daughter is the most active 9 week old around and every night at her 4 am feeding I would go in to find her out of her blanket with it bunched around her feet or up around her neck. I was afraid I would find her one morning with it over her face. I did an internet search on swaddling blankets and came across a web site for the Miracle Blanket. It really peaked my interest because it had arm flaps to hold my daughters arms in place (it's advised to swaddle babies with their arms down to their sides), plus, unlike many store bought blankets, it was long enough to wrap around her and stay in place so she could not wiggle free! (and it does it without Velcro or buttons or anything). I am a huge skeptic so I called with questions. Mike, the inventor of the Miracle Blanket, answered the phone and spent almost 10 minutes with me on the phone answering everything I threw at him. You won't find better customer service!
Point is I ordered a blanket. My daughter has slept through the night every night since I have had my blanket and has not wiggled her arms out once. Not only am I sleeping at night, but I have peace of mind that I will not wake up in the morning and find her blanket over her face. This is truly a wonderful product!! I can't express to you enough what a benefit this blanket would be to parents who are struggling to get their babies in a crib at night or naps during the day. Parents with fussy babies need this blanket without a doubt.
If you would like a sample of the product to test for a story, call Mike. He may be willing to send you one to test.
Thank you for your consideration.
NOTE FROM MIKE: Thank you Cindy! We have been featured in many news stories (TV and print) and it's because of wonderful people like you. Anyone else that wants to help like this ... we LOVE you! :-)

These blankets work great, he still isn't sleeping through the night, but he does a 5 hour shift which is great for a 6/7 week old breast fed baby. Then, I feed, swaddle again, and get another 2 or 3 hours. The other swaddle blanket I bought (SwaddleMe)doesn't work at all, he breaks out of it in 5 min or less. Last night was the worst night we have had all week, my son's diaper leaked and got the miracle blanket wet. Had to swaddle him in other things and could't get him to sleep. We just ordered another of your blankets in case that happens again.

I thank you for my first night of full sleep at 9 weeks! I thought we would never see the day with Olivia. She hated her crib until she was about 7 weeks old. We had tried swaddling her at birth and she cried for hours in her crib. We tried swaddling her again after weeks of trying everything else and she finally slept in her crib! However, finding a blanket in a store that is big enough to swaddle a baby is a hard task. Olivia can get her hands out of an ordinary blanket in record time. Each morning I would go in to find her with her arms out and the blanket down around her waist or bunched up under her arms. I was always scared she would end up with it around her face one day. I would tell my husband "I need to find a blanket that will keep her arms down!" I stumbled across the Miracle Blanket while doing a search on the internet. Like anyone else was a little leery of a $30 blanket. I saw others with velcro but was not sold because they did not look like they were very snug and had read that they are still loose on smaller babies. But..60 pages of great reviews for the Miracle Blanket can't be wrong. When I called you with questions you were patient and very helpful. Now, after having my blanket one night I wish I had it months ago! Olivia slept through the entire night! She's usually up at 4 or 5 on the dot. This morning when I woke up, she had her arms down and was still wrapped up snug in the blanket. Fantastic!! Even if I only use this for 14 weeks...$10 a month is worth every penny for my sanity!!!
Thanks again,
Cindy

One more thing . . .I belong to a pregnancy website and I posted your website, www.miracleblanket.com on 4 of the circles there - First baby, pg in twenties, pg in thirties, and pg in forties. One gal already responded about her cheaper Wal-Mart version (SwaddleMe) and I posted a message suggesting that people read the "warning" link from your website before they run off to Wal-Mart to purchase the "cheaper" version. Another woman wrote saying she didn't even know what swaddling was, so I told her about it and suggested she look at your site. Two women I chat with privately both looked at the site today after I e-mailed them, and both plan to buy them! I hope you get MANY orders! Based on customer service alone - you deserve to be successful! Thanks again!

I actually got this for a gift, I had a SwaddleMe for my daughter ... I found the Miracle Blanket when my baby was about 6 months old and wished I had found it sooner!!! I really push the swaddle issue with anyone who will listen ... it took me 3 kids to finally figure out how wonderful it is. My friend that I am sending this one to is expecting her 3rd baby next month and suffered with non-sleepers as I did with my first 2. I have been encouraging her to swaddle tight and thought this would be a great gift. My SwaddleMe was okay, but I hated the velcro which always woke (startled) my baby.

Dear Mike,
I received my blanket yesterday, baby slept in it last night. He slept from 7.30pm until 7.10am waking at 2.15 am for a feed. He had a very cosy nights sleep. Thank you very much, it is a great swaddling blanket and he didn't come undone at all during the night.
Regards, Anne
ps - if you could get the blanket stocked over here in Australia in stores like Myers, Target and Kmart I'm sure it would be very successfull!

I used the MB on my son tonight. He just got his first set of shots today and he is sleeping like a baby as we speak. I had been wrapping just his arms at night but he kept getting out so I ordered the MB and I love it. It was so easy to get him in it and he loves it too. As soon as I started wrapping him he started falling asleep. Well I just wanted to say thank you and you have a great company and I will be spreading the word to everyone I know. Even if they don't plan to have children so they can tell anyone they know that are having babies. Anyway thank you.

I originally saw the MB in the San Francisco Chronicle article (I think?). I actually have one I received as a gift; I'm buying a second one for the nights our son's diaper leaks! :) I also have the velcro one by Kiddopotamus and hardly ever use it; he's able to get his hands out, it doesn't seem to hold him snugly and that velcro is too loud and so strong it's hard to get it apart. Only used that when our MB was wet (leaky diaper) or in the laundry...

My daughter-in-law already has one that I bought her, and I am buying another one to keep at my house. I wish that I had had one of these for my babies. It really does seem like a miracle how well it works sometimes. The other day, I just could not get him to quit crying no matter what I did, his mom came swaddle him in the blanket, that was the end of the crying and he slept for 3 hours! so now I want one to keep at my house.

I was scrolling through different baby websites when I was pregnant and read about the blanket and decided to give it a try and it has been a miracle blanket for sure!! I love your product so much, it has made our lives so much more rested than you could ever believe. When my baby was born I didn't use it the first few weeks, because I was scared to wrap him up in it, but ever since we did I can tell you he has slept every night since we wrapped him up in it. I am telling all of my friends about this wonderful product. I am now ordering this blanket for all of the baby showers I am invited to. This is a must have for every new mother. I will definitely bring this TO the hospital for my next baby, I will not go a day without it. Thank you so much for the Miracle Blanket.

It is so wonderful talking to customers and hearing how happy they are with the blankets. I spoke with Sandy Austin last night when she was placing her second order as a shower gift and commented that the blankets were pretty wonderful. She responded, 'you don't understand he went from sleeping 4 hours at night to 9!!!' So Mike you have truly made a difference in many people's lives and we are enjoying being a part of it. We are also starting up a new business that will have a greater emphasis on children's products so will present greater cross-sell opportunities to sell more blankets!
Take care,

Mike,
Just want you know that I love the miracle blanket! It's funny because I was thinking about making a blanket myself because my 4 week old always broke free from his swaddle. Then I saw your clip on (T.V.) channel 8 KFMB news in San Diego and I bought it right way. Anyway my baby cannot break free from the miracle blanket. I only use it at night & he fights it for a minute and closes his eyes. He also has slept longer through the night.

Post-order survey response:
How did you hear about the MB?
Glad you asked. I was shopping at Costco and a new father had his six-month old baby girl in the child portion of the shopping cart. She was adorable. She was also surrounded by a "shopping cart bumper pad", which I hadn't seen or heard of until that moment. I thought, "what a clever idea". I approached the proud father and asked him where he purchased the "bumper pad". I explained that my niece Lauren was born the day before (February 9th) and that I would love to get one for my sister-in-law. He said, "well, if you really want to buy her something nice and something she'll love YOU for, buy her an item called the "Miracle Blanket". I hadn't heard of this either. I asked him for more details and he couldn't tell me enough about your product. He said it was the best investment he and his wife made! ... After the baby of course. He explained the swaddling effect on the baby's sleep, happiness, etc. I thought, that sounds like a gift Lauren will enjoy as well. So, here I am a day later buying your product on line. Not something I'd normally do on a total stranger's recommendation. Perhaps he needs a sales job -

I bought the MB after searching on line for a swaddling specific blanket after reading Dr. Karps book, The Happiest Baby on the Block because my baby always came out of the blanket we had. I came across the MB and was a little skeptical but the 100% lifetime guarantee satisfaction policy made me at least try it. My Emi was a challenging baby and never slept day or night unless she was in my arms for the first few weeks. Then at night she finally would sleep about 2 hours at a time but during the day still wouldn't sleep more than 5-15 min at a time unless I was holding her. At night time after her baths, she would cry so hard that we couldn't get her dried and dressed and fed fast enough! The first night with the MB, she was doing her same fussy routine and before I got the last wrap around her, she was actually SMILING! I yelled for my husband to come see the miracle and we both couldn't believe our eyes. She kept smiling and even when I was ready to feed her, she just laid in my arms smiling. My husband and I laughed so hard for about 5 minutes. We just couldn't believe it! She was about 2 months at the time and we weren't sure if it was too late to start swaddling. Obviously it wasn't. And she is almost 5 months old and we are still swaddling EVERY night and most naps. With the MB, she is sleeping 5-6 hours straight the first time down and is now only waking up once or twice during the night! It is so wonderful! Thank you so much for your wonderful product. I have recommended it to many ladies I know that have new babies and have given it for a shower gift recently! Great job and thank you!

Dear Mike
Well here we are 2 weeks into receiving our Miracle Blanket and we are absolutely thrilled with it!!!
From the moment that we put baby Jay into it we noticed that he would sleep longer between feeds and that there was no more "sudden" wake ups from bashing himself in the face. He is completely swaddled into the blanket and there is no escape!!!
This has indeed been possibly the best buy that we have made for our baby and I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone who has a newborn, regardless of their current sleeping habits!!!
Furthermore, I hope that you get your UK distribution sorted out, it was the only dull spot on your otherwise excellent product. I would love to be considered as sole agent for the product as it would be a joy to sell and I would have absolutely no problem generating interest and sales for the product here.

I just purchased the MB 4 days ago after my sister (who's baby is 5 months old and still uses the MB) raved about how great it was, I was skeptical and just thought she had a good "sleeper" My baby is almost 10 weeks old, and from day one I had out of town family visiting to help out until he was 6 weeks (so he was held ALOT) at 7 weeks he got the flu and was held constantly for about a week, after which he would NOT sleep for more that 45 min in his crib or bassinet. The first night with the MB he slept 4 1/2 hr, the second night 5 1/2 hr, the 3rd 6 hr and last night a wonderful 9 hr all by himself in his bassinet!!! Not to mention he takes 2 hr naps during the day instead of his 15 min naps before. This is the most wonderful baby product yet! All my expecting friends will receive a MB as a shower gift and I will rave about it to every pregnant women I know. I've never written to a company before about their product, but I just had to let you all know how wonderful the MB is! My BURRITO BABY (my husband now calls him) and I THANK YOU!!!

Michael,
It was nice talking with you the other week when I ordered my blanket. Thank you for taking the time with me. I was impressed by your help and by your concern with what your customer wants. Your email confirms this! I have NEVER received such a prompt and thorough reply from a company before! THank you for such a great product and great service. I have told many other moms about your miracle blanket and hope that word of mouth is good marketing for you. You are right--I would hate to part with mine. Actually it would be unthinkable!
Thanks again. Please call me if you need anything.

Last night I had occasion to baby-sit for a 5 week old little girl. Fortunately, my daughter had given her a Miracle Blanket for a baby gift. The baby was tired and fussy, and we were trying to sit down for dinner, so we wrapped her in the blanket, and within seconds she was still and quickly fell asleep. We had a quiet dinner. Everyone was amazed at how well it works. It was kind of funny when my grand daughter said "That's amazing, what is that blanket called?" - Of course my daughter and I chimed in "The Amazing Miracle Blanket!"
I thought you might like to know you have another happy customer.

I already have one miracle blanket, which I have been using since my now 9-week old daughter was about 2 weeks old. It is AMAZING ... it truly means the difference between a 2-hour sleep and a 6-hour sleep. It really calms her and prevents her from waking herself or making herself upset when her arms flail around.
I tell EVERYONE about the miracle blanket and I recommend it to many women on the Web site that I am part of ... www.inciid.com. Word of mouth on that site is VERY powerful and I would recommend that you look into purchasing a pop up ad...I think it would do wonders for your business.
I just purchased a second miracle blanket for myself, as well as an additional blanket for a friend who is due in May.
I've inspired at least 10 women to purchase from you.
Anyway, thanks for this fantastic invention!!!!!! I'd say it is probably the most useful and valuable item that we purchased for our baby.
Thanks!

The MB has worked so well for us and today I was able to show the blanket to a nurse manager at the region's largest birth center (hospital). She is so excited to get one for her new grandson AND to show it to the director of the postpartum depression support group - as so many of the moms who struggle with ppd do so because they are overtired because their babies aren't sleeping! So... you may have LOTS more Minneapolis/St Paul business coming your way. Thanks again! I'll look forward to hearing from you with an address to send the old blanket to.

I was given the Miracle Blanket as a gift from a woman who takes care of infants awaiting adoption. I scoffed at first, since my baby always slept with his fists up near his face - but the blanket is fantastic! Sometimes he frets at being restrained but most of the time I put him in it and he drops right off to sleep - I've been using it for 2 1/2 days and I wouldn't give it up - the only time my baby really fusses is when the miracle blanket is in the wash!

I purchased one of your Miracle Blankets when my daughter was 4 mos. old. She was in heaven once she was wrapped in it. She had a problem with her legs keeping her awake and when I posted this problem on the board I belonged to, someone suggested the Miracle Blanket. It helped ALOT and she got the sleep she needed.
I am going to be purchasing one for my sister-in-law who is pregnant with their first! Thank you for such a wonderful product!!!!!

Mr. Gatten,
Have I already told you that you are a wonderful person? I just received an e-mail from a [military] friend saying that you sent a blanket for her niece, thank you. I had sent the e-mail to as many military friends as I could, sharing with them your appreciation for the military because it is great to hear now and then. I find it remarkable that you are such a kind person. Thank you from all of us and those that don't take the time to say it! I hope the new year is wonderful for you and your family. I also hope that the holidays were wonderful for you. And I continue to tell people about the miracle blanket and give them the site to find it on.
Bless you,
Rebekah B.
I posted this one to let our brothers and sisters in the military know how much everyone at AMB Enterprises (Miracle Blanket) appreciates them. If you are military, please call before you order. We want to attempt to do some small thing in return for the incredible sacrifice all of you make for all of us here at home.

Mike -
If you don't mind sparing the time (this is a long one):
Yesterday, I received the blanket. I was tired of straddling my daughter as we struggled to swaddle her in an oversized blanket from a trendy store. I had safety pins in it. It was two thick layers of cotton, which I know made her overheat. In my every attempt to swaddle, it would get all bunched up in the back and sides. Inevitably, I would find her scratching at her head wildly an hour later. She likes to pull on her hair. She's got a lot of it. We tried the blanket last night. W/o a little fuss, she went to bed -that was typical for her anyway. But, she did calmly look around after she was in the swaddle. We were impressed by that. Her last evening feeding was at 9:30 pm. I kept her in the MB while I fed her. She is a "fussy" eater sometimes and will kick and thrash her body in frustration while feeding (another story for another time). She didn't in the MB. She ate calmly at 9:30 pm. Unfortunately, we had to change her diaper before she went down for the night. In our anxiety that she would wake up, we carefully unraveled her. Hoping she would stay asleep. Of course, she didn't. Her eyes opened and stared at her favorite toy, the digital alarm clock - wide open. We began to re-swaddle her. W/o a passifier, she looked around, refused the passy and closed her eyes! I nearly fell out of the bed! We carefully picked her up and put her back in the bed. Five minutes later, my husband and I were both sleeping.
The story gets better:
She normally would wake up (I apologize) to pass gas and have a bowel movement. She woke up a lot. She didn't do that last this time. She used to wake up to be soothed and for one midnight feeding. I didn't get out of bed until 5:27 am! That I attribute to the blanket! 9:30 pm to 5:30 am - the first full night of rest for us since October 21, 2003 (the night before I went into labor).
Another note - Your biggest critic was my sister who is in the medical profession, with one child and another on the way. Her first child slept through the night at 8 weeks. She was not a big swaddler b/c she didn't like the whole idea of any kind of blanket in the crib. This morning, after I told her what had happened (or should I say didn't happen), she said, "I might have to get one of those." :-)
Thank you -
Well-rested, Neda

Just a quick note to let you know that our 5 month old son Jack has slept in his Miracle Blanket since he was three weeks old. I bought the AMB after seeing it in Good Husekeeping while I was pregnant. Jack sleeps 12 hours at night and takes two 1 1/2 hour naps [during the day]. He started sleeping thru the night at 6 weeks old. He is a happy, well slept baby and we love the AMB. He is quckly growing out of it, but I find that if I at least put it on to get him to sleep, that is good enough for him. He also has one at the daycare he attends two days a week. They wish it was a requiremnt for all the babies as Jack is the best napper. Thanks for the great product. Several of my friends have purchased AMB on my recommendation and are having the same great success. Keep up the good work and please consider a larger size!
Thanks,
Deanine

I just wanted to write how much I love this product. I am a mother of twin girls. I bought the miracle blanket when they were a few weeks old. I was so excited when i got the blankets. The first night I got them my baby girls slept for 6 hours!!!! Even at a few weeks old they were sleeping WONDERFULLY!! I believe that it was because of the MiracleBlanket. The girls loved being swaddled so much that I continued to swaddle them till they were 8 months old. Now that they are 10months old they are still great sleepers. I think that the miracle blanket helped my twin girls get into a sleeping routine that they have been able to continue. I just wish I would have found these blankets when I had my first child. I have a dear friend who is having a baby soon and I am buying two for her. Thankx again for a Wonderful product.

Hi Mike,
I wanted to let you know that your blanket worked wonders for me and my little girl! She slept through the night in it from the time she was 9 months old until I took her out of it at 15 weeks last weekend. She still sleeps through the night now without the blanket. I was dreading the day I had to take it away but so far so good. It truly is amazing! I have now passed it on to a friend at work who has had a struggle with a fussy baby and now she is getting about 7 hours of sleep a night! I tell everyone I know about this blanket. I also called the hospital where I delivered (Norton Suburban) and told them about it today. Hopefully someone will call you for a sample and literature. Every new mom needs one of these blankets!!!

I just wanted you to know that I have 2 of your Miracle Blankets now and LOVE them. My daughter slept through the night for the first time at 8 weeks (when we received our Miracle blanket). She is now almost 4 months old and still loves to be swaddled for naps and bedtime. She gives me the biggest smile after I swaddled her up as if she's saying, "Thanks Mommy!" I only wish I had the blanket for my older son, who was a preemie with an underdeveloped nervous system. He had the hardest time settling down to sleep, and the Miracle Blanket would have worked wonders on him I'm sure.

Hello!
I just wanted to get back w/ you about my blanket (sorry it took so long). I absolutely love it! Max slept the longest span the first night I used it! Some nights he has the hardest time falling asleep ... he gets real jerky movements and hits himself in the face and stuff! Then, I swaddle and he's out like a light. I want to thank you for taking care of us! I really appreciate it....it means alot! I wanted to attach a picture of Max in his blanket ... he is sitting in his vibrating chair. I love the fact that his feet can be out of it so he can still swing, and sit in bouncy chairs.
Thank you soooo much for your kindness!
Take care,

I bought my first blanket before my 3rd child was born, and used it from day one in the hospital. I am buying 2 more today; one for a pregnant friend as her baby gift, and another for myself because another newly pregnant friend assured me she would buy both of mine once she had her baby ... so I consider it no expense.
I just love it! I swaddled my first 2 kids with standard blankets but even though I was good at it by most standards, it was never anywhere close to this. This is easy and escape proof, and my baby LOVES to get wrapped. He starts cooing the moment we start tucking his arms ... even if he was just in an all-out "I'm overtired now, you grownups really messed up!" wailing the second before.

The day I received our miracle blanket in the mail, I washed it so that we could use it that night. My baby had been sleeping 4-6 hours straight at night, but with the Miracle Blanket he slept almost 9 hours! It calms him when he's upset just as you advertise. I love this product!!! And last time I ordered there were backorders and your customer service was great. Thank you!!!

I absolutely love your products... and swear by the following two: The Miracle Blanket and the Podee Bottles. I have told all of my friends about them and am getting the Miracle Blankets for my neighbor's baby shower!
We have twin 6 month old girls and I don't know what we would have done without these two products. They have made a huge difference in how easily our lives run. We are still swaddling the girls, and wish that there was a "plus size" Miracle Blanket!
I am sending a picture of the girls to you... using both products. I just thought that you would get a kick out of it!

I hope you don't mind but I e-mailed my local TV stations about your blanket. They are WAVE-3, WLKY 32, WHAS 11, and FOX 41 in case someone does really call.
I am a true believer in your blanket and think more people need to know about it!
Olivia has slept through the night the past 3 nights that I have had the blanket. I don't worry about her getting her arms out at night and I know it will stay bundled! I wish I had known weeks ago about this blanket. If I can spread the word and help other moms that would be wonderful!
Here is what I wrote to them:
I wanted to give you a wonderful idea for a story. It's called the Miracle Blanket! This would be a hot story for all new mothers and mothers to be! Please, Please, Please check out this web site...Miracleblanket.com.
Please don't stop reading, this is a great product and so many people can benefit from it if only they knew it existed. I wish I had found it weeks earlier! I could have avoided many stressful nights.
I have a 9 week old baby who hated her crib and I can't tell you how many nights I was up from 10:00 at night to 3:00 in the morning ready to pull my hair out because I could not get her to sleep in her crib. As soon as my head hit the pillow, she screamed! I thought I was going to end up in the looney bin! Finally after trying everything, time after time, I tried swaddling her again and TADA!!! she slept in her crib.
So where does the Miracle Blanket come in you ask? My daughter is the most active 9 week old around and every night at her 4 am feeding I would go in to find her out of her blanket with it bunched around her feet or up around her neck. I was afraid I would find her one morning with it over her face. I did an internet search on swaddling blankets and came across a web site for the Miracle Blanket. It really peaked my interest because it had arm flaps to hold my daughters arms in place (it's advised to swaddle babies with their arms down to their sides), plus, unlike many store bought blankets, it was long enough to wrap around her and stay in place so she could not wiggle free! (and it does it without Velcro or buttons or anything). I am a huge skeptic so I called with questions. Mike, the inventor of the Miracle Blanket, answered the phone and spent almost 10 minutes with me on the phone answering everything I threw at him. You won't find better customer service!
Point is I ordered a blanket. My daughter has slept through the night every night since I have had my blanket and has not wiggled her arms out once. Not only am I sleeping at night, but I have peace of mind that I will not wake up in the morning and find her blanket over her face. This is truly a wonderful product!! I can't express to you enough what a benefit this blanket would be to parents who are struggling to get their babies in a crib at night or naps during the day. Parents with fussy babies need this blanket without a doubt.
If you would like a sample of the product to test for a story, call Mike. He may be willing to send you one to test.
Thank you for your consideration.
NOTE FROM MIKE: Thank you Cindy! We have been featured in many news stories (TV and print) and it's because of wonderful people like you. Anyone else that wants to help like this ... we LOVE you! :-)

These blankets work great, he still isn't sleeping through the night, but he does a 5 hour shift which is great for a 6/7 week old breast fed baby. Then, I feed, swaddle again, and get another 2 or 3 hours. The other swaddle blanket I bought (SwaddleMe)doesn't work at all, he breaks out of it in 5 min or less. Last night was the worst night we have had all week, my son's diaper leaked and got the miracle blanket wet. Had to swaddle him in other things and could't get him to sleep. We just ordered another of your blankets in case that happens again.

I thank you for my first night of full sleep at 9 weeks! I thought we would never see the day with Olivia. She hated her crib until she was about 7 weeks old. We had tried swaddling her at birth and she cried for hours in her crib. We tried swaddling her again after weeks of trying everything else and she finally slept in her crib! However, finding a blanket in a store that is big enough to swaddle a baby is a hard task. Olivia can get her hands out of an ordinary blanket in record time. Each morning I would go in to find her with her arms out and the blanket down around her waist or bunched up under her arms. I was always scared she would end up with it around her face one day. I would tell my husband "I need to find a blanket that will keep her arms down!" I stumbled across the Miracle Blanket while doing a search on the internet. Like anyone else was a little leery of a $30 blanket. I saw others with velcro but was not sold because they did not look like they were very snug and had read that they are still loose on smaller babies. But..60 pages of great reviews for the Miracle Blanket can't be wrong. When I called you with questions you were patient and very helpful. Now, after having my blanket one night I wish I had it months ago! Olivia slept through the entire night! She's usually up at 4 or 5 on the dot. This morning when I woke up, she had her arms down and was still wrapped up snug in the blanket. Fantastic!! Even if I only use this for 14 weeks...$10 a month is worth every penny for my sanity!!!
Thanks again,
Cindy

One more thing . . .I belong to a pregnancy website and I posted your website, www.miracleblanket.com on 4 of the circles there - First baby, pg in twenties, pg in thirties, and pg in forties. One gal already responded about her cheaper Wal-Mart version (SwaddleMe) and I posted a message suggesting that people read the "warning" link from your website before they run off to Wal-Mart to purchase the "cheaper" version. Another woman wrote saying she didn't even know what swaddling was, so I told her about it and suggested she look at your site. Two women I chat with privately both looked at the site today after I e-mailed them, and both plan to buy them! I hope you get MANY orders! Based on customer service alone - you deserve to be successful! Thanks again!

The Miracle Blanket was talked about and raved about in our Mommy and Me classes. I used it with my daughter and am ordering another one for my sister who is having a baby next week.
I love this blanket and recommend it to all new moms I meet, especially when they talk about their babies not sleeping.

I actually got this for a gift, I had a SwaddleMe for my daughter ... I found the Miracle Blanket when my baby was about 6 months old and wished I had found it sooner!!! I really push the swaddle issue with anyone who will listen ... it took me 3 kids to finally figure out how wonderful it is. My friend that I am sending this one to is expecting her 3rd baby next month and suffered with non-sleepers as I did with my first 2. I have been encouraging her to swaddle tight and thought this would be a great gift. My SwaddleMe was okay, but I hated the velcro which always woke (startled) my baby.

Dear Mike,
I received my blanket yesterday, baby slept in it last night. He slept from 7.30pm until 7.10am waking at 2.15 am for a feed. He had a very cosy nights sleep. Thank you very much, it is a great swaddling blanket and he didn't come undone at all during the night.
Regards, Anne
ps - if you could get the blanket stocked over here in Australia in stores like Myers, Target and Kmart I'm sure it would be very successfull!

I used the MB on my son tonight. He just got his first set of shots today and he is sleeping like a baby as we speak. I had been wrapping just his arms at night but he kept getting out so I ordered the MB and I love it. It was so easy to get him in it and he loves it too. As soon as I started wrapping him he started falling asleep. Well I just wanted to say thank you and you have a great company and I will be spreading the word to everyone I know. Even if they don't plan to have children so they can tell anyone they know that are having babies. Anyway thank you.

I originally saw the MB in the San Francisco Chronicle article (I think?). I actually have one I received as a gift; I'm buying a second one for the nights our son's diaper leaks! :) I also have the velcro one by Kiddopotamus and hardly ever use it; he's able to get his hands out, it doesn't seem to hold him snugly and that velcro is too loud and so strong it's hard to get it apart. Only used that when our MB was wet (leaky diaper) or in the laundry...

Mike was extremely helpful and polite when I called and immediately fixed our problem. This excellent customer service combined with a great product is why I am a returning customer! I also admire you for your blanket donation program :)

My daughter-in-law already has one that I bought her, and I am buying another one to keep at my house. I wish that I had had one of these for my babies. It really does seem like a miracle how well it works sometimes. The other day, I just could not get him to quit crying no matter what I did, his mom came swaddle him in the blanket, that was the end of the crying and he slept for 3 hours! so now I want one to keep at my house.

I was scrolling through different baby websites when I was pregnant and read about the blanket and decided to give it a try and it has been a miracle blanket for sure!! I love your product so much, it has made our lives so much more rested than you could ever believe. When my baby was born I didn't use it the first few weeks, because I was scared to wrap him up in it, but ever since we did I can tell you he has slept every night since we wrapped him up in it. I am telling all of my friends about this wonderful product. I am now ordering this blanket for all of the baby showers I am invited to. This is a must have for every new mother. I will definitely bring this TO the hospital for my next baby, I will not go a day without it. Thank you so much for the Miracle Blanket.

I have twins and these blankets have saved my life! Now they are 6 mos old and they still love them, it keeps them calm and stops them from scratching the eczema on thier faces. I was wondering if it is at all possible for you to make us a big blanket! My pediatrician says it ok to swaddle even up to a year, but this is the only blanket that works!

It is so wonderful talking to customers and hearing how happy they are with the blankets. I spoke with Sandy Austin last night when she was placing her second order as a shower gift and commented that the blankets were pretty wonderful. She responded, 'you don't understand he went from sleeping 4 hours at night to 9!!!' So Mike you have truly made a difference in many people's lives and we are enjoying being a part of it. We are also starting up a new business that will have a greater emphasis on children's products so will present greater cross-sell opportunities to sell more blankets!
Take care,

Mike,
Just want you know that I love the miracle blanket! It's funny because I was thinking about making a blanket myself because my 4 week old always broke free from his swaddle. Then I saw your clip on (T.V.) channel 8 KFMB news in San Diego and I bought it right way. Anyway my baby cannot break free from the miracle blanket. I only use it at night & he fights it for a minute and closes his eyes. He also has slept longer through the night.

Post-order survey response:
How did you hear about the MB?
Glad you asked. I was shopping at Costco and a new father had his six-month old baby girl in the child portion of the shopping cart. She was adorable. She was also surrounded by a "shopping cart bumper pad", which I hadn't seen or heard of until that moment. I thought, "what a clever idea". I approached the proud father and asked him where he purchased the "bumper pad". I explained that my niece Lauren was born the day before (February 9th) and that I would love to get one for my sister-in-law. He said, "well, if you really want to buy her something nice and something she'll love YOU for, buy her an item called the "Miracle Blanket". I hadn't heard of this either. I asked him for more details and he couldn't tell me enough about your product. He said it was the best investment he and his wife made! ... After the baby of course. He explained the swaddling effect on the baby's sleep, happiness, etc. I thought, that sounds like a gift Lauren will enjoy as well. So, here I am a day later buying your product on line. Not something I'd normally do on a total stranger's recommendation. Perhaps he needs a sales job -

I bought the MB after searching on line for a swaddling specific blanket after reading Dr. Karps book, The Happiest Baby on the Block because my baby always came out of the blanket we had. I came across the MB and was a little skeptical but the 100% lifetime guarantee satisfaction policy made me at least try it. My Emi was a challenging baby and never slept day or night unless she was in my arms for the first few weeks. Then at night she finally would sleep about 2 hours at a time but during the day still wouldn't sleep more than 5-15 min at a time unless I was holding her. At night time after her baths, she would cry so hard that we couldn't get her dried and dressed and fed fast enough! The first night with the MB, she was doing her same fussy routine and before I got the last wrap around her, she was actually SMILING! I yelled for my husband to come see the miracle and we both couldn't believe our eyes. She kept smiling and even when I was ready to feed her, she just laid in my arms smiling. My husband and I laughed so hard for about 5 minutes. We just couldn't believe it! She was about 2 months at the time and we weren't sure if it was too late to start swaddling. Obviously it wasn't. And she is almost 5 months old and we are still swaddling EVERY night and most naps. With the MB, she is sleeping 5-6 hours straight the first time down and is now only waking up once or twice during the night! It is so wonderful! Thank you so much for your wonderful product. I have recommended it to many ladies I know that have new babies and have given it for a shower gift recently! Great job and thank you!

Dear Mike
Well here we are 2 weeks into receiving our Miracle Blanket and we are absolutely thrilled with it!!!
From the moment that we put baby Jay into it we noticed that he would sleep longer between feeds and that there was no more "sudden" wake ups from bashing himself in the face. He is completely swaddled into the blanket and there is no escape!!!
This has indeed been possibly the best buy that we have made for our baby and I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone who has a newborn, regardless of their current sleeping habits!!!
Furthermore, I hope that you get your UK distribution sorted out, it was the only dull spot on your otherwise excellent product. I would love to be considered as sole agent for the product as it would be a joy to sell and I would have absolutely no problem generating interest and sales for the product here.

I just purchased the MB 4 days ago after my sister (who's baby is 5 months old and still uses the MB) raved about how great it was, I was skeptical and just thought she had a good "sleeper" My baby is almost 10 weeks old, and from day one I had out of town family visiting to help out until he was 6 weeks (so he was held ALOT) at 7 weeks he got the flu and was held constantly for about a week, after which he would NOT sleep for more that 45 min in his crib or bassinet. The first night with the MB he slept 4 1/2 hr, the second night 5 1/2 hr, the 3rd 6 hr and last night a wonderful 9 hr all by himself in his bassinet!!! Not to mention he takes 2 hr naps during the day instead of his 15 min naps before. This is the most wonderful baby product yet! All my expecting friends will receive a MB as a shower gift and I will rave about it to every pregnant women I know. I've never written to a company before about their product, but I just had to let you all know how wonderful the MB is! My BURRITO BABY (my husband now calls him) and I THANK YOU!!!

Last night I had occasion to baby-sit for a 5 week old little girl. Fortunately, my daughter had given her a Miracle Blanket for a baby gift. The baby was tired and fussy, and we were trying to sit down for dinner, so we wrapped her in the blanket, and within seconds she was still and quickly fell asleep. We had a quiet dinner. Everyone was amazed at how well it works. It was kind of funny when my grand daughter said "That's amazing, what is that blanket called?" - Of course my daughter and I chimed in "The Amazing Miracle Blanket!"
I thought you might like to know you have another happy customer.

I already have one miracle blanket, which I have been using since my now 9-week old daughter was about 2 weeks old. It is AMAZING ... it truly means the difference between a 2-hour sleep and a 6-hour sleep. It really calms her and prevents her from waking herself or making herself upset when her arms flail around.
I tell EVERYONE about the miracle blanket and I recommend it to many women on the Web site that I am part of ... www.inciid.com. Word of mouth on that site is VERY powerful and I would recommend that you look into purchasing a pop up ad...I think it would do wonders for your business.
I just purchased a second miracle blanket for myself, as well as an additional blanket for a friend who is due in May.
I've inspired at least 10 women to purchase from you.
Anyway, thanks for this fantastic invention!!!!!! I'd say it is probably the most useful and valuable item that we purchased for our baby.
Thanks!

The MB has worked so well for us and today I was able to show the blanket to a nurse manager at the region's largest birth center (hospital). She is so excited to get one for her new grandson AND to show it to the director of the postpartum depression support group - as so many of the moms who struggle with ppd do so because they are overtired because their babies aren't sleeping! So... you may have LOTS more Minneapolis/St Paul business coming your way. Thanks again! I'll look forward to hearing from you with an address to send the old blanket to.

I first heard about you from an on-line parenting website.
I bought one for my daughter when she was about four weeks, and one for our neighbor's daughter when she was about the same age. I just ordered one today for a baby due in mid-March. I love the Miracle Blanket!!!

I was given the Miracle Blanket as a gift from a woman who takes care of infants awaiting adoption. I scoffed at first, since my baby always slept with his fists up near his face - but the blanket is fantastic! Sometimes he frets at being restrained but most of the time I put him in it and he drops right off to sleep - I've been using it for 2 1/2 days and I wouldn't give it up - the only time my baby really fusses is when the miracle blanket is in the wash!

I purchased one of your Miracle Blankets when my daughter was 4 mos. old. She was in heaven once she was wrapped in it. She had a problem with her legs keeping her awake and when I posted this problem on the board I belonged to, someone suggested the Miracle Blanket. It helped ALOT and she got the sleep she needed.
I am going to be purchasing one for my sister-in-law who is pregnant with their first! Thank you for such a wonderful product!!!!!

Mr. Gatten,
Have I already told you that you are a wonderful person? I just received an e-mail from a [military] friend saying that you sent a blanket for her niece, thank you. I had sent the e-mail to as many military friends as I could, sharing with them your appreciation for the military because it is great to hear now and then. I find it remarkable that you are such a kind person. Thank you from all of us and those that don't take the time to say it! I hope the new year is wonderful for you and your family. I also hope that the holidays were wonderful for you. And I continue to tell people about the miracle blanket and give them the site to find it on.
Bless you,
Rebekah B.
I posted this one to let our brothers and sisters in the military know how much everyone at AMB Enterprises (Miracle Blanket) appreciates them. If you are military, please call before you order. We want to attempt to do some small thing in return for the incredible sacrifice all of you make for all of us here at home.

I read about the Miracle Blanket in Good Housekeeping and I am so glad we did. We love the Miracle blanket and our baby sleeps great already. The Miracle Blanket is long and strong enough to snuggle tight even the strongest, biggest of babies for a pleasant nights sleep.

If you don't mind sparing the time (this is a long one):
Yesterday, I received the blanket. I was tired of straddling my daughter as we struggled to swaddle her in an oversized blanket from a trendy store. I had safety pins in it. It was two thick layers of cotton, which I know made her overheat. In my every attempt to swaddle, it would get all bunched up in the back and sides. Inevitably, I would find her scratching at her head wildly an hour later. She likes to pull on her hair. She's got a lot of it. We tried the blanket last night. W/o a little fuss, she went to bed -that was typical for her anyway. But, she did calmly look around after she was in the swaddle. We were impressed by that. Her last evening feeding was at 9:30 pm. I kept her in the MB while I fed her. She is a "fussy" eater sometimes and will kick and thrash her body in frustration while feeding (another story for another time). She didn't in the MB. She ate calmly at 9:30 pm. Unfortunately, we had to change her diaper before she went down for the night. In our anxiety that she would wake up, we carefully unraveled her. Hoping she would stay asleep. Of course, she didn't. Her eyes opened and stared at her favorite toy, the digital alarm clock - wide open. We began to re-swaddle her. W/o a passifier, she looked around, refused the passy and closed her eyes! I nearly fell out of the bed! We carefully picked her up and put her back in the bed. Five minutes later, my husband and I were both sleeping.
The story gets better:
She normally would wake up (I apologize) to pass gas and have a bowel movement. She woke up a lot. She didn't do that last this time. She used to wake up to be soothed and for one midnight feeding. I didn't get out of bed until 5:27 am! That I attribute to the blanket! 9:30 pm to 5:30 am - the first full night of rest for us since October 21, 2003 (the night before I went into labor).
Another note - Your biggest critic was my sister who is in the medical profession, with one child and another on the way. Her first child slept through the night at 8 weeks. She was not a big swaddler b/c she didn't like the whole idea of any kind of blanket in the crib. This morning, after I told her what had happened (or should I say didn't happen), she said, "I might have to get one of those." :-)
Thank you -
Well-rested, Neda

I first heard about you in Good Housekeeping Magazine. I have had nothing but wonderful comments from the mothers and grandmothers that I have given this blanket to. Wish I had had one when my kids were babies.

A friend of mine gave me her miracle blanket for my new baby. She said it was the best thing she got and I completely agree! I just ordered 2 more and have told all my friends if they are going to a baby shower this is the perfect gift!

Any time you need a testimonial about this blanket - LET US KNOW! The blanket works like a charm. That is why we are purchasing one for our best friends - and we might be buying another for our next door neighbor.

Just a quick note to let you know that our 5 month old son Jack has slept in his Miracle Blanket since he was three weeks old. I bought the AMB after seeing it in Good Husekeeping while I was pregnant. Jack sleeps 12 hours at night and takes two 1 1/2 hour naps [during the day]. He started sleeping thru the night at 6 weeks old. He is a happy, well slept baby and we love the AMB. He is quckly growing out of it, but I find that if I at least put it on to get him to sleep, that is good enough for him. He also has one at the daycare he attends two days a week. They wish it was a requiremnt for all the babies as Jack is the best napper. Thanks for the great product. Several of my friends have purchased AMB on my recommendation and are having the same great success. Keep up the good work and please consider a larger size!
Thanks,
Deanine
