Babies: 3 - 6 Months

woombie

For those who have used it, do you like your woombie?  Did you use it to swaddle your LO or as a transition between swaddling and no swaddling?  We still have to swaddle our LO at night because he still flails his arms around and wakes himself up.  Do you think it's worth trying out?  Another mom on the board recommended trying the woombie but I also wanted to get the opinions of some other mom's.  Also, where can you get the best deal for it?  Thanks ladies!

Re: woombie

  • We were using a halo sleepsack with a swaddler but it only comes in newborn size and DD outgrew it. I am hoping to use the woombie as a transition, but DD loves to stick her hands in her face and wake herself up so we will stick to using the woombie for now. Since DD is a pretty big baby (14 lbs 2 oz at her 3 mo) I love that the woombie has bigger sizes. I also love that the fabric is really lightweight so I don't have to worry about her overheating as the weather warms up. The biggest thing I don't like is that it says to line dry. Since she always wears a sleeper under it for now I just don't wash it that often. When I do I wash it right away in the AM and I just throw it in the dryer for a couple minutes if it is still damp in the evening.

    FYI The Halo swaddle sleepsack now comes in a larger size.
