Swaddle your baby safely, comfortably, and effectively with Swaddle Strap baby swaddle. Easy to use, even for sleep deprived parents. Doctors and nurse-midwives recommend swaddling infants to help calm them and improve the quality/duration of sleep, but suggest that it is important to make sure: 1) baby does not overheat and 2) baby’s legs are not constricted, which could cause hip displacement as baby’s hips develop. Swaddle Strap is designed with these considerations in mind. Made of soft, non-stretch, 100% cotton fabric with baby-friendly (strong but not scratchy) hook-and-loop closures, the unique two strap design of Swaddle Strap arms only baby swaddle provides maximum swaddling safety and comfort with the least amount of fabric. In order to achieve a secure fit with so little fabric, we found it essential to use a non-stretchy fabric! The inner strap goes under baby’s arms to prevent sliding up over baby’s face. The soft pillows and outer strap secure baby’s arms down at the side. Swaddle Strap baby swaddle does not enclose baby’s hips—the International Hip Dysplasia Institute acknowledges the Anna & Eve Swaddle Strap baby swaddle as a Hip-Healthy product. Perfect for any climate. Baby can be swaddled with our swaddle while wearing anything, from just a diaper to jammies or a sleep sack. Use with or without your choice of blanket. The legs-free design allows you to swaddle baby while strapped into a swing and to change diaper while swaddled. Secured arms prevent babies with eczema from scratching themselves and keeps babies with feeding tubes from pulling on tubes. Works with Pavlik harness, for babies with Hip Dysplasia. Swaddle Strap is adjustable and comes in two sizes to fit most infants. PLEASE USE CHEST CIRCUMFERENCE (not age or weight) TO SELECT THE CORRECT SIZE. To measure baby’s chest, use a soft tape measure around the widest part of baby’s chest under the arms. SMALL SIZE fits chest size from 13.5” to17” (34cm-43cm / newborns to approx. 3 months). LARGE SIZE fits chest size from 16″ to 20.5″ (41-52 cm: approx. 2-6 months). WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: We recommend machine laundering in a mesh laundry bag. Wash before first use.

Awesome for tiny newborns â especially cranky, overtired ones!
We got one of these for our newborn when he was about 2-3 weeks â he really wanted his hands at his face, so he would bust through the swaddle, but then would wake himself up with his startle reflex and be SO upset. It made the first few weeks so rough! We had velcro swaddles, but our little guy was still a bit too small for those (born 7lbs 5 oz) â this arm swaddle was the perfect bridge til he was big enough to use the velcro ones. You could absolutely just use this with swaddle blankets instead of velcro swaddles as baby gets bigger (I would have if I hadnât received velcro swaddles at my baby shower).The magic of these will save you if you are in the first weeks of babyâs life! Newborns literally have no control over their arms; even if you think your baby âlovesâ to have their hands at their face, as ours did, you will find they love not being disturbed by their startle reflex even more! This arm swaddle immediately got our baby to relax and start sleeping according to his schedule at only 3 weeks old (if youâre wondering â schedule is from my holy grail, âMoms on Call – 0-6 Monthsâ book, which got our newborn to start sleeping 5-7 hrs each night at 3 weeks old. Heâs now 11 weeks old on the schedule, has slept predictably during the day and through most of the night since being on the schedule, and is now sleeping 10-11 hrs at night! Itâs crazy!! Get the book while youâre here buying this!). Moms on Call says you must buy their special (expensive) swaddles and learn their technique (which I struggled with); never bought their swaddle, just used this with larger swaddle blankets and it worked perfectly!If youâre struggling with a very cranky newborn that likely just needs to sleep, give this a try. I would absolutely gift this along with some nice swaddle blankets, and the Moms on Call book, for a new mama, and would present it as âthe gift of sleep and a happy babyâ 😉 My husband and I have had no trouble sleeping since week 3, when our baby went from pissed off all the time to happy and beaming, and this arm swaddle was an important step in making all that happen!

Perfect for the strong baby!
In the hospital, we called our baby Houdini because they managed to get out of every swaddle no matter which nurse, parent, or grandparent attempted it–including blankets and velcro swaddles. Zipper swaddles were better but our baby moved their arms a lot and stretched out the material to get their arms up. So we tried a zipper arms up swaddle, but those had too much mobility to keep our baby sleeping soundly. Finally we saw these on taking cara babies blog. It’s stretchy enough to not be uncomfortable but not so stretchy that your strong little Houdini can escape.1) The double velcro with the pad actually keeps the arms down! Our baby fought it at first and was grumpy they couldn’t move their arms but after a few minutes with the pacifier, we could lay them in the crib and let them sleep soundly!2) the long velcro strips allow for a little growth before sizing up. It’s also pretty high quality velcro — not the fuzzy falling apart or long scratchy spikes kind.3) the design means pretty good bum access without undoing the velcro so your baby can stay swaddled without loud velcro sounds so you don’t wake your baby when they decide to poop right after you lay them down.4) good for both hot and cold. Hot rooms? Just this and jammies. Cold room? Use fleece jammies and add some baby mittens.Love this product! Repeat purchaser and recommending to all my expecting friends!

This product is truly an answer to prayer!
My LO is a swaddle breaking champion. It never seems to matter how snug they are, in what feels like the blink of an eye, there are those little hands…and a wide awake baby. DH and I were getting desperate to find something to contain those hands and allow LO–and by extension ourselves–to sleep.On a 3 a.m. sleep-deprived whim, I searched for “arm swaddle”. I was beyond excited when I saw this product…until I saw the price tag. DH and I went back and forth for almost another sleepless week until during another 3 a.m. sleep-deprived episode, I looked at him and said, “We are getting this. We cannot do this anymore. If it doesn’t work, we’ll send it back, but at least we will have tried.”Fast forward about a week and a half: We have used this miracle swaddle each night and sometimes naps, too, and let me reassure you if you are like me and concerned about the price: Worth. Every. Damn. Cent. LO sleeps, we sleep, the world is a brighter place, and we have regained some semblance of sanity. I can lay LO down without worrying they will break their swaddle, their arms are by their side, inhibiting their Moro (startle) reflex, we can latch easily at night without little hands getting in the way, and while they initially protest losing access to their hands when they go in, within seconds, LO is calm and dozing. This product is truly an answer to prayer.We ordered both sizes (3 a.m. desperation doesn’t play), and our 9 lb., 8 oz., 22.5” 1 month old fits the small perfectly. It works well with standard swaddle blankets, as well as swaddle and sleep sacks/pods. LO sleep in Halo swaddle sleep sacks at night and takes naps in swaddle blankets during the day. We live in the deep South, and LO has not been overheated using any combination. We are so thrilled with this purchase that we are planning to purchase another to be used when the current one is in the wash.If your LO is the fastest swaddle breaker in the West (or anywhere else), I encourage you to try this swaddle. It has been a sanity and sleep saver for our family.

Good transition
We had a big boy who outgrew every swaddle I could find before he outgrew the startle reflex. This worked perfectly to transition to the sleep sacks. Other products we tried didnât have the inner layer to keep it in the correct place and I was worried he would wiggle out of it and get it caught around his face. The inner layer on this product keeps it positioned perfectly. My only wish was that it was a bit longer so we could have used it for even longer!

It actually worked really well for a couple weeks. But now the velcro doesnât stick at all. Iâve made sure itâs clean and thereâs nothing stuck in it but it still hardly sticks
Yousuf A. –
Really like it .. at first I bought the small size for my little baby but noticed it wasn’t comfortable and had it replaced with large size
Asami –
Finally found this swaddle strap much better than the normal swaddle , my boy is 3months and he feels comfortable with it sleeping so nicely and deeply.

My baby boy has a trach, and when we do trach changes or cares, he always succeedes getting out of a blanket swaddle. With this, our life is 100% easier!! I recommend for every trach parent!!
