The Woombie

My baby slept through the night since she was 7 weeks old which I attribute to swaddling.

The few times that she awoke in the middle of the night was because she got out of her swaddle. This started happening when she starting out-growing the miracle blanket (which is a GREAT product too)! I didn't know what to do because she was getting bigger and out-growing the miracle blanket but she only slept well when she was swaddled.

I came across the Woombie which is a great transition swaddler when your baby starts to get bigger. They have bigger sizes and it enables the infants to move around but the movements are limited so she won't wake during the night. It contours to their shape like when they're in the womb and confines them but doesn't constrict their movements. There is a lot of research out there about when you should or shouldn't start/stop swaddling but I had to listen to my baby's cues and she isn't ready to stop swaddling. The woombie helped ease my fears of whether or not it was unsafe to continue swaddling.

She loves the Woombie and it was a very smooth transition from the miracle blanket. The biggest bonus is that she sleeps well which helps me sleep well too.

Well worth it!

My son started using Woombie when he was little over a month old. Before discovering Woombie we used one of those swaddlers that were extremely tight and my son would bust his hands out very fast and that would wake him up. If that didn't happen he would just fight it until he would fall asleep.

My son is almost four months now and he absolutely loves his Woombie. What makes it so nice is that he can stretch, play with his hands and still be nice and snuggly, we can also change his diaper in the middle of the night without taking the whole Woombie off because of its' two-way zipper. He falls asleep immediately in it and can easily go 10hrs without waking up. It was amazing how his sleeping habits changed after he got Woombie. I recommend it to everyone - there's no better swaddler than Woombie!!!
