FTM mom here (not due until May 13) but a gal on our BMB posted about the Miracle Blanket on special online today so I thought I'd come here to get any experience and opinions.
Anyone here used this? Is it worth it?

We ended up needing to use it for swaddling because DD learned quickly how to work her arms out of every other type of swaddle. It is more of a PITA to do diaper changes in it than in some of the others like the Halo and Swaddle Me, so I'd try the other types first.
It was our main swaddling blanket because it worked so well. Definitely recommended! We used ours for about 4 months, so I consider it money well spent.
And with the delivery trifecra of one twin vaginal, one c-section with general anesthesia for twin B, Spencer and Sidney joined us at 35 weeks exactly on June 18.
As with most baby items, it totally depends on the baby. With DS1, we used and loved the Miracle Blanket. It was the only swaddle we used. I almost bought another one when I was pregnant with DS2, but I'm glad I didn't, because he has never been swaddled. He just didn't need it. So you never know!
I started with the miracle blanket but switched to the woombie. I like the woombie better since it just zips up and DS can put his arms near his face. The miracle blanket pins them to his side. He was also able to bust out of the miracle blanket from time to time as he grew.

This! We actually have 4 of them. Never know when you are going to have a night of epic blow outs and need a new swaddle quickly.
