What to Consider When Buying Swaddles Swaddles Help Everyone Get More Sleep To find the best swaddle, we looked at the fabric quality, ease of use, special features, storage, fit, comfort, ease of wrapping and adjustability, ability to change a diaper and overall experience. I wrote down the results as they were happening because as anyone who has a newborn knows, those first few months are a whirlwind of feed, burp, change, sleep (hopefully) and repeat. We would test each swaddle through at least two sleeps and we revisited each a month later. Over the course of the first three months of our baby boy’s life, we tried out many different swaddles. The days can be long and the nights longer, so it was fun having this little swaddle experiment to keep my mind occupied during those late-night feedings watching Queer Eye on my phone also helped. Products are constantly changing and improving and it’s so exciting for me to see what is out there and try it all-so you don’t have to. I’m a writer and performer living in Los Angeles, and I used to run a podcast called, “Yer Mama.” I love reading about the latest baby gear and sharing my opinion, so I was excited to have the opportunity to review products that are helping me with baby number two, starting from day one.Īs a second-time mom, I had a much better handle on what to expect in those first months home from the hospital. Here are the best swaddles we tested ranked, in order. Several other swaddles, like our Best Value-winning SwaddleMe by Summer Infant ( available at Amazon) also proved to be pretty great, while others missed the mark. It’s tight, easy to get on and off your baby, easy to change a diaper in, and just great all around. In our experience, the best baby swaddle is Happiest Baby ( available at Amazon). We spent the first three months-from the hospital to home-testing every different type of swaddle imaginable. Enter swaddle wraps! They keep babies content and cozy, creating a perfect recipe for a good night’s sleep. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) warns against having loose blankets or sheets in the crib with babies younger than 12 months of age.

Parents all have the same hope for our newborns as we venture home from the hospital please, let this one be a sleeper!
