Aden Anais swaddle question

ellewoodsSC · June 2011

Hope you don't mind me asking a question here, but your purchase must-haves and do-overs post have attracted a lot of lurkers from the other boards. Since a lot of mommies have mentioned A+A swaddle cloths, I was curious if you found the more expensive boutique versions (47" squares) to be preferable to the standard 44" versions that are found in most stores? Or are the 44" just as good? TIA

I only have the 47" ones (two sets, both gifts) and I love them. They are the only thing we use for swaddling, all other blankets are used for playtime. I don't know that the extra 3 inches would make a big difference to me though. My DD's "best friend" has the Target ones and they seem to work just as well. We would have bought the Target ones too had we not been gifted the others.

I have both, and other then the "boutique" ones being a bit thicker, they are pretty much the same to me.

I have a boutique one (a gift) and the Target ones, and I prefer the Target ones just because they are a touch thinner. We live in Arizona, and the thin muslin is just the right weight for our hot weather.
