Frequently asked questions

Is there a step by step instructional video?

Here's a short YouTube Tutorial

What age and size does this swaddle fit?

The 0 to 3 month age range is from the American Pediatric Association as a general recommended guideline for safe sleeping. The swaddle sweet spot is 7 to 12 lbs. However, the swaddle has been tested on babies over 12 lbs and even then, there is ample room for growth! Thankfully, with the four-way stretch of the fabric along with how adjustable the wrap is, we are confident you will find great use in the swaddle for the first three months and maybe longer (if there are no signs of rolling over).

My baby is a Houdini. How does this help with arm break throughs wrapped?

To ensure that your skilled wiggle-worm doesn’t break through, make sure that you adjust the wrap to be as snug as possible! Snugness should not exceed you being able to still fit at least one finger between the wrap and the baby. Here’s an instructional video on wrapping and adjusting: Butterfly Tutorial.

What's the best way to get baby's arms in the sleeves correctly?

Place your fingers through the cuff of the sleeve and guide each hand through.

What does my baby need to wear underneath the sleep sack?

In a regulated nursery temperature of 68 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit, a simple short-sleeve onesie is all you need.

Can the swaddle be used as a pajama with nothing underneath?

Absolutely. The swaddle is organic and finished on the inside with utmost care keeping your delicate baby’s skin in mind. The two way zipper has a special binding to prevent pinching and scratching.

Do I have to unwrap my baby for diaper changes?

Although you don’t have to remove the outer wrap, you may find it easier to simply open the wrap and utilize the two way zipper. The silent closure will ensure the baby isn’t disturbed during the wrapping and unwrapping process.

When do I stop swaddling?

All forms of swaddling must stop as soon as the baby shows signs of rolling over.

Can the swaddle sleep sack portion (without wrap) still be used if baby shows signs of rolling over?

First, it must be restated that all forms of swaddling must stop when the baby shows signs of rolling over. This includes no longer using the wrap (unless used exclusively around the tummy region for tummy relief).

While on the baby's tummy, test your baby's ability to use their arms to lift their head while wearing the sleep sack.

*** If the baby struggles to lift their head and use their arms while on their tummy, STOP USING THE SLEEP SACK. ***

You should notice that the sleeves are three quarter length. This allows for the sleeves to ride up as the baby is using their arms to lift themselves.
