Merlin Sleep Suits

What age are these recommended up to? Thinking of buying one of DD who has become a HORRIBLE sleeper but not sure if its worth it since she's almost 4 mos.

There biggest size is 6 to 9 months so i would think until they can't fit it in that size anymore..i would recommend getting one!

Do you mind sharing how your LO sleeps in it? How many hours etc?

Mine sleeps about the same in it when we swaddled her. She started to hate the swaddle and I needed something else and the merlin sleepsuit has been great. She has started sleeping longer and better...not sure if I can chalk it up to sleepsuit or not but I would recommend it. I tried to nap her the other day without it (because I was washing it) and it was an epic fail. As soon as I put her in she slept for 2 hours.

DD slept great in hers from about 3m3w to 4m3w, when she started rolling in it. We transitioned to the Zippadee-Zip after that and she sleeps even better in that than in the SleepSuit. We've found, however, that DD likes to belly sleep, which they can't do in the sleep suit.

He usually sleeps through the night without waking up and this started a few nights after we started using the sleepsuit. I absolutely love it! I need to order the bigger size.

I don't have personal experience with one, but a friend of mine bought one when her baby was about four months and she recommends it to other moms all the time! Seriously, the suit was all she wrote about on her Facebook for weeks after she bought it because it made such a difference for her LO!

hmm So we are about 5 days in and have had 2 good nights but other nights she's fussing often. I can't figure it out.

You just have to keep trying different things to see what works. Babies change constantly so you have to just roll with it.

Im definitely rolling with it. Just looking to see if these things are common around this age or with certain sleep suits,etc.

so does that mean you bought a sleep suit?

not all babies like the same things, and as i often joke when someone asks whether LO likes ____, i say "he likes it when he likes it and doesn't like it when he doesn't"...they change all the time.

my LO currently loves the sleep suit so hopefully that works for you in the end. good luck.
