I was just curious if you you use a receiving blanket or some other swaddling blanket.  My LO sometimes seems to break free of receiving blankets, and I have been debating on getting a larger blanket or something else.  Just wondeing what works for you all.  I just want my LO to get the best sleep he can get...his sleep is pretty restless with grunting and squirming (probably from gas).[Poll]

    I voted SwaddleMe blankets but I also use aden and anais blankets because they're big and lightweight.  You can buy them at target now!  :)

    We mostly used the Halo Sleepsack they gave us at the hospital or the First Years Organic Swaddler we got as a shower gift.

    We use the aden + anais muslin blankets - I love that they are big, lightweight, stretchy. My toddler now uses his swaddling blanket as a regular blanket so they can be used for a very long time.

    I LOVE Aden + Anais blankets.  They are so easy to swaddle with and LO, who is a huge wiggle worm, has never broken out of one.

    We used Halo Sleepsack Swaddlers!  Like other PP mentioned, we also used them while in the hospital and were sent home with one.  They are the best!  The velcro is strong and the inverted zipper really helps for diaper changes, plus is safer.

    We actually use 3 methods of swaddling Smile

    Aden & Anais blankets (as mentioned before)

    SwaddleMe's

    And this Swaddle Designs 1-2-3 swaddle blanket.  It is fantastic, its huge, its warm, its soft, its just effing awesome:

    They are also sold at Target.  FWIW, I have their burp cloths too, and they are just as awesome.  A little pricey, but so worth it.

    I just bought the convertible Woombie and LOVE it! LO hates to have his arms swaddled, but likes the rest of his body to be wrapped tight, so this Woombie opens up to let his arms out. I tried SwaddleMe's, Aden & Anais, receiving blankets... but he wiggles out and it is a pain to take off and change him in the middle of the night. The Woombie has a double zipper, so I can unzip the bottom and leave him swaddled.
