great!May 31, 2010
Our infant liked being swaddled until she was older and longer. She was about 4 months old before we were able to stop swaddling her (but she was a long baby). This swaddle fit her perfectly. She liked it and slept well in it.
Now I use it by rolling it up tightly and tucking it into my diaper bag, it works for trips to the park when she had "tummy time" and now I can use it as a light blanket for her if we are out and it gets chilly. So it has been one of the most versatile blankets and well used blankets we have had.
This is a great baby gift for yourself or a friend, because those initial receiving blankets only work for about the first 4 weeks of life, and then it seems the baby outgrows them, so those seem like a waste to me now.

The only receiving blanket you'll ever needMay 29, 2010
This wonderfully soft swaddling blanket is amazing and well worth the money. We used it every night during the swaddling stage. The swaddling stage varies a lot from one baby to another. My baby liked to stretch her legs and arms, so she outgrew swaddling around two months. Some babies still like to swaddle at six months. We got by with one of these. Of course my baby had no issues with spitting up since she was breast fed, but one or two should do unless your baby has problems with spitting up and dirtying things quicker. For any new moms looking at packages of less expensive receiving blankets, you won't need them! Most receiving blankets are 30"X30", too small to swaddle a baby and useless as a blanket, plus they get really hard and wrinkly in the wash. Every mom I know agrees with me. Some people use them as burp rags or to sop up messes. A lot of experienced moms never open, but just regift them because they are so useless. I use mine to line the changing pad so the wonderful pretty soft changing pad cover doesn't get poopy all the time. To sum up: buy the Swaddle Designs blanket! Don't buy small cheap receiving blankets.
Love it!Dec 26, 2009
This is a wonderfully soft and warm receiving blanket. My favorite thing about it is the size. It is much larger than the other receiving blankets I've used. It is easier to wrap the baby up snuggly and he stays wrapped up. We've used Swaddle Designs for both of our kids, I highly recommend them!

Wonderful blanket!May 27, 2009
PROs
1) Arrives soft
2) Washes VERY well and stays soft (for 3 months so far, at least in Dreft which I use on Pediatrician's rec)
3) Perfect size for swaddling... a nice, large square
4) Good material for swaddling... not too stretchy
5) Available in attractive patterns... and photograph well
6) The labor/delivery and maternity/baby ward nurses all exclaimed over how great these are
CONS
1) a little pricey...but worth it
2) if your baby will be in a very hot climate without air conditioning (like Honolulu in August) you may want to go with something else.... in air conditioning this is fine in warm weather
best swaddler we've usedJun 22, 2008
We actually have two of these blankets now (blue and red trim) and have given a third (chocolate trim) to a friend who's expecting. These are by far and away the best blankets we have for swaddling. As other reviewers have mentioned, they are big enough to remain useful long after our baby outgrew his other blankets. They are also very soft. We also love the weight of them. Not too heavy. We used them all winter over footed things and sleep-sacks. Now that it's summer, we use them with onesies or just over a diaper. Great that they are organic too!
