They have aden and anais swaddling blankets today. I was going to get the four pack at BRU since I had a gift card but I just ordered a single one from Babysteals instead. Yay!
why are these better than the Gerber/Target/Carter's ones?
They are super light, stretchy and breathable. They make a great swaddle and I didn't have to worry about her breathing when LO started busting out of her swaddle and pulling the blanket over her face. I also have their sleep sacks , which are nice now that it's warmer at night.
You can also find these at Target. I really like that is is lightweight and I use it as a nursing cover, because it is a bit bigger than a receiving blanket, but still lightweight and it doesn't look like a blanket, if that makes sense.
We got a 4-pack from Target for DS and loooooved them. They were all we used for the first several months of his life - they went on the beach w/ us, we kept one in his car seat at all times, I used them as a nursing cover, etc. The only thing we didn't use them for was swaddling, but that was b/c DS refused to be swaddled. In any event, they were/are one of my very favorite baby things!
Re: Baby Steals today!
I have heard that they are made of a nice light cotton which will be good for a summer baby.
... every single day of forever.
