Blankets to Choose From

There are all sorts of different baby blankets out there to choose from. Lately, some of the most popular blankets to rise on the scene are swaddling blankets. The technique of swaddling has been around for 100s of years, but manufacturers today are using state of the art technology to make this process better for both the baby and the parents.

What Is Swaddling?

What is swaddling? It's simple enough. It's basically a way of wrapping your baby in a blanket that creates a tight and snug fit. It keeps arms and legs from squirming while your baby sleeps and gives them a secure feeling. When done correctly, a swaddled baby sleeps better at night, which means the parents get more sleep too! Swaddling also reduces the risk of SIDS, so it is important for every parent to learn.

If you don't know how to swaddle, I'll help you out. It's not too tough. Fortunately, there are tons of tutorials on the internet. And some of the blankets have directions right on them, like SwaddleDesigns blankets. You can buy a swaddle blanket from SwaddleDesigns or other great companies by clicking here.

aden + anais

I believe that one of the best lines of swaddling blankets available today are aden and anais blankets. These blankets are made large, 47 x 47 inches, so they give you plenty of room to wrap your baby. They are often made with muslin cotton, which is a very breathable fabric. Because the fabric breathes easily, your baby won't overheat and wake up during the night. Their are different blanket stores selling these blankets online. The best deal I've found is on the aden and anais 4 pack. You can get them here for $38.95 with flat rate shipping.
