I have a halo sleep sack and it was great till she spit up on it and I only have one so until I get some time to do laundry I have been swaddling with receiving blankets.

I'm a terrible swaddler so I need something foolproof MH on the other hand is fantastic at it with the A&A swaddles. But I'm the one up in the middle of the night!

Right now we use a swaddleme. Once we stop swaddling we'll use sleepsacks. At least that's what I think we'll do, that's what we did with Gavin. The sleepsacks didn't keep him contained enough.
Not to threadjack but what about the swaddleme vs the Woombie? We are using the miracle blanket now bc she sleeps best in it vs a+a but it's a PITA to use at 3am.
I'm a swaddle pro and use my A&As but I had bought some SwaddleMes before he was born and was going to take them back to BRU after I realized A&A was good enough...yeah, it had been over the 90 day return limit by 3 days! GRRR. So, I'm glad people like them as I guess I get to use them!
We have both and I much prefer the Halo Sleep Sack with the swaddler attached - so much so that I went out today to buy a couple more of the cotton ones because we only had one and he pukes on it every single night. The SwaddleMe gives you a better swaddle overall, but I hate having to undo the entire thing to do a quick diaper check. The only thing I dislike about the Halo is the fact that they don't have any laundry tabs for those ginormous pieces of velcro, so if you're not careful it will ruin EVERYTHING that you wash it with.
We just started using the Swaddleme over just swaddling with the A&A blankets because he gets out of my swaddles in the middle of the night but not out of the Swaddleme. It is a pain when you have to check or change a diaper though so I always do that before feeding then re-swaddle and start feeding.

I need more containment than the sleep sack so we use the swaddleme... My little one gets out of that! I love my A&A blankets for naps though and use swaddleme for bedtimes.
Hey Gymnst! I loved the Miracle Blanket for overnight with both kids. I was using the Swaddle Me for daytime swaddling as well. Now I use the Halo Sleep Sack with the swaddle attached all the time. H is starting to want to get free, so I let him do it in this and he's good.
If you want Miracle Blankets you can buy mine from me if you like.

Oh I forgot about the Miracle Blanket.
