Has anyone tried these?? I need to transition her out of a swaddle and she can't handle going one arm out even.

  • I just googled these and now I'm curious too.

    We use a different brand but same concept. My LO loves this. It's worked great for us. I got it on amazon.

  • @bmerr‌ would you be able to measure the wingspan of your small for me...from zipper to point. This just looks so easy to make I really don't want to spend 35 dollars but would love to give it a try.
  • I ordered one yesterday! Hoping it works well, so I'll try to report back.
  • I made one and it works great!
    I just googled for the sizes but ended up adding more arm room for my babe.
  • My mom made me one and used a 24 in zipper and it is a little short in length but works...probably should have added a little fabric to the bottom. I tried it one night and she slept great for about five hrs I couldn't get her to go back down though after and needed to swaddle her. I tried it again for her morning nap this morning and she fought sleep for an hr then I swaddled her and she was out in five. I'm thinking we aren't quite ready yet but who knows...I think the swaddle transition is going to be really hard for her.
  • LO breaks out of swaddle and now with her legs up in the air, I am convinced swaddling days are done. I was still trying to swaddle and she would wake up out of swaddle and it wasn't working anymore. That zipadeezip sounded so good but they were sold out of the sizes. 

    So DH went to store and purchased a Halo sack yesterday, the one with arms free. I don't know if it was a fluke but it worked. She STTN, and she hasn't done that in weeks. 
    I am this close calling my DH a genius, but I need to live with the man!

  • @FFwifey‌ where did you find the tutorial for that swaddle technique? LO loves to sleep with his arms up. I would love to give it a try.

  • not sure if you got one or not but we use it for our LO and love it. It was the best sack we could find to transition out of the swaddle too. kept her secure and she could move so its a win win!
