HALO SleepSack Swaddle {Review & Giveaway}

Baby Brother loves being swad­dled. And, I only love swad­dling him in some­thing that he’ll be safe in while sleep­ing. So, enter the HALO Sleep­Sack Swad­dle! We LOVE this prod­uct– just look at how happy Baby Brother is in it! Now…I know you might be think­ing, wait…he’s not swad­dled in that pic­ture. And, you’re right, he’s not really being com­pletely swad­dle there. But, that’s the beauty of this swad­dler. It still func­tions like a nor­mal Sleep­Sack, but has the option to swad­dle arms in or arms out. Are you famil­iar with HALO Sleep­Sacks? Here’s a lit­tle info just in case: “Cre­ated by Bill Schmid after los­ing a child to SIDS, HALO® Sleep­Sack® wear­able blan­kets replace loose blan­kets in the crib that can cover your baby’s face and inter­fere with breath­ing. It’s the #1 trusted choice of hos­pi­tal nurs­eries and par­ents alike”. A HALO Sleep­Sack swad­dle was actu­ally rec­om­mended to us at the hos­pi­tal. Our nurse explained that they are now only rec­om­mend­ing swad­dling with receiv­ing blan­kets at our hos­pi­tal for the first 24 hours. Then for safety, only a prod­uct like HALO’s swad­dle should be used. That advice is fine with me because I find a swad­dle blan­ket so much eas­ier to use than a blan­ket any­way. HALO’s ver­sion is by far my favorite! I LOVE the way the vel­cro works on these! The two hook vel­cro pieces can attach vir­tu­ally any­where on the oppos­ing wing, mak­ing it pos­si­ble to get the per­fect snug fit. In addi­tion, they’ve sewn direc­tions right on to one of the wings for any­one using it who doesn’t know how. And, another fea­ture I love is the fact that the zip­per ends at the bot­tom (feet end)! Thank you!! This way, we don’t have to com­pletely undo him in the mid­dle of the night for dia­per changes! To see a bet­ter look at all the fea­tures, check out the swad­dle direc­tions on HALO’s web­site!

Baby Brother gets swad­dled in this every night and he’s really been sleep­ing well for such a young baby (we’re only up about once a night). I love that he’s nice & comfy, while at the same time, being safe. These pho­tos were all taken after wear­ing the blan­ket all night. And, although he’d def­i­nitely worked his arms up a bit, he’s not worked them out or worked the flaps over his face (which has hap­pened with other swad­dle blan­kets we’ve tried). So, we’re big fans here! Want to try a HALO Sleep­Sack Swad­dle for your lit­tle one or give as a gift?! WIN IT!…
