Frances West says: Having used other swaddles, ones that Velcro or large muslin sheets the love to swaddle is just on another level. DS is 6 months and as it's stretchy it gives him room to move his arms without being too constricted, but stops his arms from moving about too much and waking him up.

Wasn't the magic bullet we were hoping for but it's easy to put on and better option than the arms by side swaddle we used with DD which makes him really angry!

I've brought a love to dream swaddle but still unsure how I feel, I've read so many mixed reviews on how these can be bad for the baby and also I dont want to rely on this. However, babies will eventually have to learn to sleep without being swaddled, then this sleep sack with adjustable sleeves can let you place one arm or both out of the swaddle to get them used to sleep with their hands "free" .

This technique can come in very handy during nighttime diaper changes so baby does not become fully awake and will go back to sleep more easily. While I still think the straitjacket method is more effective for encouraging long stretches of uninterrupted sleep, this swaddle is our go-to for naps. Once your baby is rolling on their own, if they independently roll on to their tummy in their sleep with their arms out of a swaddle, you do not need to roll them back. It gives babies the benefit of staying in this cactus-like pose if they're used to it, but also allows them to feel more cocooned than if they weren't swaddled at all.

Your baby should be sleeping in a sleeping bag appropriate for the room temperature of the nursery, with no blankets, pillows or other sleep aids in the cot.But you don't need to go completely cold turkey - arms up swaddling is a great way to adjust your baby to sleeping swaddle free gradually. My concern was how small they are, my baby is a bit of a chunk (13lb 4oz at 9 weeks) so it looks quite small compared to the usual sleeping bag types. No matter how good you are at swaddling, at some point your baby is going to force out of there and end up with a blanket on their face or mouth. with mitten cuffs closed, the little sleeves provide partial suppression of the Moro reflex, so even when both arms are out from under the swaddle wrap, baby will sleep better with less risk of baby being awakened by the startle reflex.
