Wrap Me Up!

As parents ourselves (of a 2 and a half year old and a 6 month old) we've had the opportunity to try out just about every product in the 9 Months Waiting range.

We've decided to put together a series of reviews from our personal experience that may be useful for any new parent out there trying to decide on which product best suits them.

Our first review will be of the Miracle Blanket.

I am a HUGE fan of the Miracle Blanket and feel that it's a must have for babies up to about 3 months of age. It features a flap inside the blanket that keeps those crazy little arms in place. Combined with the foot pouch, this swaddle would have to be the most secure swaddle on the market.

Can your little one get out of the Miracle Blanket?

Yes, they can, but it takes an incredible effort if you have used it properly. My daughter is a serious kicker and wriggler in her sleep and if anyone is going to get out of it, it's going to be her. We found that if we wrapped her securely enough, she just couldn't get out of it no matter how hard she tried. The nights that she did get out of it were nights that we hadn't used it properly.

I would have to rate the Miracle Blanket as my choice of swaddle for a young baby up to the age of about 3 or 4 months (depending on the size of your baby). I've used just about every swaddle available, and this one would be my pick. It's a shame they don't make them in a larger size.

Miracle Blankets are available in white, pink, blue, and pistachio for $39.95 - the best investment you'll make!
