swaddleaze_rotate.jpgDid you have a samurai swaddle nurse when your first child was born? The one with the amazing ability to enter a room with a crying baby, take said baby from your arms and in a flash of swaddling, transform your bundle of joy from wriggling mess to happy baby? If so, you no doubt sweated when the time came to take your new little bundle home. “Sure, the nurse showed me how to swaddle, so why does my newborn always have an limb peeking conspicuously through the so-called swaddle blanket?”

Put those worries aside, next time go with the very clever Swaddleaze. After trying everything she could to get baby Grace to sleep (and to get some sleep herself), Heather Allard decided to design something herself and Swaddleaze the Startle-Free Sleeper ™ was born. “No shoulder straps. No leg pouches. No diagrams. No engineering required. Just a simple, fast effective sleeper that swaddles your baby in womb-like comfort.” The Swaddleaze is a sleep suit with a built in ‘wing’ for swaddling. Did we mention it’s also made of the softest microfleece we’ve ever felt?

If not, use the armholes and fold her arms across her chest. Then, wrap the “swaddling wing” around your baby, tucking it under her chin and fasten in back with a long velcro closure.

Once your little one is through with swaddling, you can still use Swaddleaze as a sleep suit - just use the armholes and wrap the wing around your baby’s torso. Nighty night!
