This zip-up swaddle from Love to Dream allows your baby to sleep in a more natural ARMS UP™ position, while still feeling comforted as they sleep – 1.0 TOG is ideal for moderate room temperatures between 20°C and 24°C (68°F and 75°F). Parents say they love that baby knows it’s time for bed as soon as they pop them in the swaddle.
One reviewer said: “Not only are they much quicker (especially in the middle of the night), they are effective. As soon as my baby shows tired signs, I place him in his suit as part of his sleep routine. He is still able to self-soothe by using his hands around his face/mouth.”

Prewashed and available in cute patterns, the Bubba Blue Premium Muslin Swaddle Wrap is a popular choice for parents.

Officially recognised as Hip Healthy, the Gro Company Swaddle Grobag is made from super soft cotton with elastane to allow for some stretch.
“I love the fabric of this swaddle, it is so soft,” said one reviewer. “The print is also super cute. This particular swaddle is perfect for transitioning from swaddle to sleeping bag with the arm dome closures allowing you to open one or both arms. The easy zip access is great for nappy changes, and the shape allows movement of hips and legs. Highly recommend these.”

The Ergobaby Swaddler features a Healthy Hip Positioner that helps keep baby’s hips in an ergonomically correct ‘frog-leg’ position, as recommended by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute.
One reviewer wrote: “I really loved this swaddle when my baby was a newborn. It was so easy to keep. Him secure and tight, he couldn’t get his arms out easily as he did with other swaddles. The material is beautiful and soft and stays soft even with a few washes, lovely.”
