Swaddle Sacks/Swaddle Me's / Sleeper questions

Okay, so I was going through what I got for the shower/what I have and I think I have 3 Swaddle Sacks, no swaddle me's, no newborn size sleepers and about 8 3month/3-6 month sleepers. 

Should I invest in more swaddle sacks? Buy swaddle mes? They were on my registry but no one got any and should I get some newborn sleepers? Or more 0-3 sizes?

  • I have no idea on qtys anymore, BUT - There are some Swaddle Me's half off or buy one get one half off at Babies R Us right now. I had to try very hard not to buy them.

    Also, I think there were some of the lightweight large swaddling blankets half off as well (if not Aiden and Aidis, comperable.)

  • I'm not familiar with the swaddle sacks but we loved the SwaddleMes.  I would probably get some 0-3 month sleepers.  DD#1 wasn't in newborn sizes for very long at all.

  • We had 2 swaddle me's/swaddle sacks with Gabe and I hardly used them.  I found he did much better in the sleep-n-play sleeper with a light blanket tightly around him.  The swaddleme's weren't tight enough to keep him in, lol.  I don't even know where they are now, I'd forgotten completely about them, so I won't be using them with Isaac.

  • SwaddleMes, Miracle Blanket, any of those are great for tight swaddles and little babies that try to bust out of them.

    In my experience, the swaddleme got puked on just about every night so have enough depending on how you do laundry. Also, make sure you take the fabric and season into consideration. 

    My girls were in newborn for quite a while and then 0-3. In reality, they LIVE in sleepers at that point. You think they won't but it ends up that way usually.

  • We also used Halo Sleepsacks once they were out of swaddles. We quit using them about 9 months and only because it's warm enough in their room, they don't need it.
  • We do also have 8 aiden and anais blankets.  So, maybe hold of on more sleepslacks, perhaps get 1 swaddle me to see if she likes it and maybe a few more sleepers?

    This is exactly what I would do in your shoes.

  • I love the Halo Swaddle Sleep Sacks. I would get 2-3 in newborn, and 2 in small. Baby Bun stayed swaddled until she was 6.5 months. There were some breaks in there, but she loved to be swaddled. She still uses a Med sized sleep sack now.
  • Thanks ladies!

    I wouldn't open one pack of the a+a until you try them out. Ian has been able to break out of those since the minute we got home.
