The legendary SwaddleMe has revolutionized the way babies - and parents - sleep around the world. The newest additions to the award-winning SwaddleMe line feature hip new color combinations, well suited to the trendsetting bamboo fabric and a new generation of parents.
New research shows that swaddling may help reduce the risk of SIDS by promoting better sleep when infants are on their back.

SwaddleMe FAQ
How should I dress my baby under the SwaddleMe?
- Be sure the room temperature is cool and only dress your baby in light clothing (or a diaper only) under a SwaddleMe to ensure that your baby does not get too warm.
- If your baby is small and you are concerned that she may not be able to self regulate her temperature, discuss with your pediatrician how warmly your baby should dressed for sleep. Ask if your baby should use a warmer SwaddleMe fabric or an additional layer of clothing for sleep.
When should we stop using the SwaddleMe?
- You should discuss with your pediatrician when your baby should no longer be swaddled to ensure appropriate motor development.
- If you feel there is any risk your baby could possibly roll from the back to stomach position while swaddled (this is unlikely even for older babies because babies use their arms to roll over), discontinue swaddling.
- You should no longer use any kind of swaddle if your baby is large enough or strong enough to break free of the blanket. Most babies should no longer need to be swaddled when they have outgrown the large size SwaddleMe.
Common sense safety considerations:
- Always place infants on their backs to sleep.
- Use discretion when using any covering in warm rooms; overheating may be a factor in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
- Loose bedding that can cover the mouths and noses of infants may increase the risk of suffocation. The SwaddleMe is designed to reduce this risk with correct use.
- Only use the SwaddleMe as directed, with the foot pocket secured in place and with the wings snug and securely fastened so the fabric cannot cover the baby's mouth or nose. Be sure the SwaddleMe wings are below chin level.
- Do not use the SwaddleMe with an undersized infant around whom the wings cannot be snug.
- Always ask your pediatrician if you have any questions about your baby's needs.
