How to Choose the Right Baby Swaddle

Newborn baby skin is very sensitive. With that in mind, it's important to choose a baby or newborn swaddle that is lightweight, breathable, and most importantly, gentle on your baby's skin.

Here at Wildbird, we've engineered CloudBlend™ fabric that combines the best features of a number of other fabrics. It's soft, stretchy, and durable, ensuring that it's a perfect fit for every baby.

Size also plays an important role in choosing the right baby swaddle. It's important to make sure the swaddle is large enough to wrap your little one securely. However, if the swaddle is too big, your little one may become tangled.

Tips for Successful Baby Swaddling

Here are a few tips for successful baby swaddling.

Early Introduction

The earlier you introduce swaddling to your little one, the more likely they are to adapt to it and find comfort in this practice. Keeping it consistent can also help your baby recognize swaddling as a cue for sleep. This is a great way to develop a healthy sleep routine and establish good sleeping habits from the start.

Keep an Eye for Overheating

Overheating must always be avoided, because it creates a really uncomfortable environment for your baby. Keep an eye on signs like sweating, flushed cheeks, and rapid breathing. Use a lighter swaddle to bring the temperature down and ensure proper airflow.

Keep it Snug, but Not Tight

Swaddling is meant to be cozy and compact, but not too restrictive. Be sure to wrap the swaddle snugly around your baby's body, but avoid making it too tight. If you swaddle too tight, it can interfere with your baby's physical development.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is the ideal age to start swaddling my baby?

Swaddling is ideal for newborns and can be done until your baby shows signs of starting to roll over. This can happen as early as 6-8 weeks of age or approximately 2 months.

Can I swaddle my baby for naps during the day?

Yes! Swaddles for babies are great for every type of sleep, including naps.

How do I know if my baby is too hot or too cold while swaddled?

Your baby may be too hot if they seem fussy, or uncomfortable, are sweating, or are flushed or have red skin while swaddled. Similarly, if your baby is shivering or is pale, they may be too cold.

Should I swaddle my baby with their arms in or out?

Swaddling babies with their arms in can help them feel more secure and relaxed. It's often recommended for newborns, as having their arms swaddled mimics the feeling of being in the womb. As babies grow older, however, they may start to be more active. Swaddling with arms out will allow them to have more mobility and control over their limbs.
