I then became a pro and all of a sudden - they don't want to be swaddled anymore! LOL<br /><br />Anyway, thanks so much for sharing the great swaddling blanket options.<br /><br />Have an awesome day!<br /><br />DAWNPainter Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18100835126351418170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-35428997320726335242009-09-18T16:53:08.716-04:002009-09-18T16:53:08.716-04:00Another type of blanket that we happened upon beca...Another type of blanket that we happened upon because Leah was a warm weather baby too: muslin gauze blankets. SOOOO breathable. Great for strollers in warm weather, or layering in colder weather. They are a little pricey (I think around $40 for 4 blankets), but Leah is using them as crib blankets now too. I think the brand we have might be Aiden & Anais?MedeirosATLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04409572940038642495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-34756654477004420272009-09-18T12:32:05.208-04:002009-09-18T12:32:05.208-04:00I really want to try a Woombie when the baby gets ...I really want to try a Woombie when the baby gets here. Have you seen these? They are only 23.99, which is not too bad compared to some of the other products out there. They allow baby to move while still feeling comforted, and they have different materials for different seasons/climates. I really want to get one!Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09155461143562481858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-85019426327771389292009-09-18T10:14:50.475-04:002009-09-18T10:14:50.475-04:00@ Kim @ What's That Smell?:
You guessed right...@ Kim @ What's That Smell?: <br />You guessed right when you said Marlie was a cuddler in an earlier post. She loves to be snuggled. Thank goodness for the swaddling blankets...she loves it and it gives my tired arms a rest. What is it that makes the daddies such pros with the swaddling?! I am like you, I can't get it right. The Kiddopotamus ones are the only ones I can do. I am angling to buy some more to put in our rotation. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700057904506855793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-54654211992322419642009-09-18T08:05:50.569-04:002009-09-18T08:05:50.569-04:00My husband was a pro with the regular blankets.

When I did it, they were off by the time I went to pick them up.<br />After I discovered the Kiddopotamus ones, we used those forever.

Marlie won't go to sleep unless she snuggled: in someone's arms, in my wrap, or swaddled. She's one of those cuddly babies. Damon prefers the regular blankets, but I can't do the swaddle with them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700057904506855793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1745513252224031567.post-26824632547017712902009-09-18T04:18:37.774-04:002009-09-18T04:18:37.774-04:00@ keyalus said:

I couldn't ever fathom spending $$ on special blankies, without knowing for certain they'd like being swaddled. Most babies do, yes. But my OJ...phew. He was different entirely. Money was wasted on pacifiers, and swaddling blankets would have been a waste too. Of course, $$ was why I breastfed. Maybe I'm just cheap after all. ;) Happy Thursday Teresha!jmthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15910737494137891606noreply@blogger.com
