First off, I really love this product. It's the quickest, easiest way to swaddle my baby girl, who sleeps much better at night when she's securely wrapped up. We went with this kind of swaddle over a blanket because she has been a "mobile sleeper" since birth, and always managed to wriggle out of our blanket swaddle. Note that these notes below pertain to the small size.
Now - here's what you need to know about sizing, based on my three months of experience and multiple attempts to get it right.
- There are three kinds of swaddle fabrics at the time I'm writing this:
1. Flannel (in the gingham prints)
2. Fleece
3. Cotton jersey (like a t-shirt). This variety has the most options in terms of patterns and colors.
I've arranged them in that order because that's the order of smallest to largest. The flannel variety stretches, well, not at all. It's the smallest of the three types of fabrics, therefore, in terms of fit. (My daughter outgrew her small size swaddle at 13 pounds, after washing it a few times - even though it's supposed to fit up to 14.) The fleece variety does stretch a bit - she's now 15 pounds and this still fits her.
The cotton variety is the stretchiest one - and it REALLY stretches. The first time after I wash and dry it, it's pretty snug. But if I'm lucky enough to get 2 or 3 nights of use out of it, by the third night it's considerably bigger than it was. I just bought another small cotton one and my baby's 15 pounds.
What's more, I just bought a flannel gingham swaddle in large, and that fits her great. (But the cotton variety in large was HUGE and I'm returning it.) Anyway - hope this is helpful to all of you out there. This is a great product and I wish you luck!

When my daughter was born, I didn't know about swaddling, and it would take me HOURS to get her to sleep! I would feed or rock her in my arms until she falls asleep, then put her in her crib... and she'd flail her arms, wake up and cry, and I had to start all over! What a nightmare!
Then I figured out that since her arms wake her, it would make sense to wrap her in something so she couldn't move them as much... so I started wrapping her in regular receiving blankets. It worked! It became much easier to get her to sleep. But then she wiggled out of those receiving blankets and wake up again.
When she was a little over a month old, somehow I came across SwaddleMe blankets on the Internet and immediately bought it. It worked great! It was so easy to wrap my daughter in it, and it stayed put. My daughter started sleeping so much better!
I wish I found those blankets sooner - it would've saved me from so many sleepless nights!
2 years later, my son was born, and thankfully I already knew about those blankets from the start. He goes to sleep great in the SwaddleMe blanket! Out of curiosity, I tried to put him to sleep without this blanket, and his arms wake him right away - exactly the same as my daughter!
I consider this blanket one of the most important baby items you could buy. It should be a must for a new mother who wants to get some sleep!

Kiddopotamus Snuzzler Complete Head and Body Support

Product Description


Color: Ivory Terry
Amazon.com Review
Parents may want to give their infants the Snuzzler for the luxurious comfort factor alone. But what will really make them happy is the fact that the award-winning Snuzzler provides gentle support for baby’s vulnerable head, neck, and back, keeping her stable and comfy in the car seat, stroller, swing, bike trailer, backpack, and bouncy seat. The plush terrycloth is reversible to smooth, woven fabric, so baby can sit in comfort and style any time of the year. The soft support cushions fit all harness systems, with no need to thread (and unthread) straps when transferring Snuzzler between seats.
The Snuzzler Is Different Other support products do not actually support a baby’s head. Parents cringe at the sight of their sleeping baby’s head cocked practically at right angles to her body—the Snuzzler prevents the head flop, and keeps baby’s entire torso in the proper posture.
How It Works Switching the Snuzzler between baby seats (car seat, stroller, bouncy seat, etc.) couldn’t be easier or more intuitive. Open-ended strap openings allow caregivers to drop the Snuzzler right into the seat, pull the harness straps through the openings, make sure the head support is set at the right height (adjust height with Velcro tabs), and there you have it. Ready for baby!
Crash Tested for SafetyIf you’ve done your parenting homework, you know that adding fluffy, squishy things to your baby’s car seat can compromise her safety, as the harness straps may not fit as snugly as necessary with all the cushioning around baby. Have no fear, Kiddopotamus knows all about baby safety. Snuzzler has no padding behind baby for the safest harness fit. It has undergone rigorous crash tests by accredited United States agencies to ensure that it conforms to federal standards.
Snuzzler Grows with BabyThe clever head support element of the Snuzzler is detachable and adjustable (with Velcro tabs); as baby grows, the head support moves right along with her, unlike all-one-piece supports. The head support can also be used on its own.
Award-Winning SupportAmong its accolades and parent kudos, the Snuzzler is also the recipient of several awards, including the 2005 Pregnancy Magazine Buyer’s Guide Award, the 2003 iParenting Media Award, and the 2003 iParenting "Hot Product" Award.
Machine WashableWhat’s the point of baby gear if you can’t throw it in the laundry basket? Of course the Snuzzler is machine washable (cold water, gentle cycle. Line dry).--Emilie Coulter
Product Description The award-winning Snuzzler provides the ideal support for baby's back and head, adjusting upward as baby grows. Keeps baby perfectly supported and comfortable in any seat, and in any season! The soft terry cloth material provides comfort to baby all year long, and is perfect for warmer climates. The unique contours work easily with all harness straps, including 3 and 5 point harness systems. The Snuzzler transfers with ease between all infant seats to provide support in car seats, strollers, jogging stroller and swings. No need to thread straps! To stabilize wobbly newborn heads, the lower portion of the head support overlap the body support cushions. The head support adjusts upward as baby grows and it can detach from the body support to be used on its own. With padding only on the sides, not behind baby, the Snuzzler does not interfere with the safety of car seat harnesses. Crash tested for safety and Machine washable for easy care.

The snuzzler does an excellent job keeping baby from slumping in seats and swings. It can be used with just about any kind of buckle/harness including 5 point, 3 point, and typical swing belts.
Despite information posted by other reviewers, I would like to note that this item is safe for use in car seats. It is designed so that the padding is to the side of the baby and NOT behind the baby. This is stated on the packaging: "Safe for use in all car seats, Snuzzler is specially designed with padding only on the sides of baby's head and body, not in back of baby, for proper harness fit." This meets the requirements of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration which states "Never place any extra cushioning under or behind your baby. This also prevents harness straps from being snug." The NHTSA also recommends using towels to support baby's head and neck, but the Snuzzler stays in place better because of its design and, therefore, in my opinion, would be safer to use than towels.
Also, the NHTSA recommends not putting jackets and heavy clothes on your baby in a carseat because this also prevents harness straps from fitting properly. The Snuzzler is designed with warm fabric on one side and a cooler feeling fabric on the other side to accomodate seasons, keeping baby warmer in colder temperatures and cooler in warmer temperatures, decreasing the need for bulky coats and clothing in the winter.

I was able to take my little one out in the running stroller at 7 weeks using the Snuzzler. I stuck to smooth bike paths until she was about 4 months, but her little head didn't budge when she was laying on this thing. In fact, I think she slept better in the running stroller w/ the Snuzzler than at home! The two sides are convenient b/c you can just flip it over depending on the kind of weather you're having: fleece side to keep her warm and the other to keep her cool when it's already warm out. By 4 months, she didn't need it in the car seat or swing anymore, but it still seems comfy for her in the running stroller even now at 5 months.

Customer Reviews


It's very difficult to wrap a constantly moving baby, and her hands will get out of the wrap very easily. We much prefer Halo's sleepsack with swaddle, although her hands will still get out it, but it was much easier to use.

I love the features of being able yo use this in a car seat and being able to diaper change without unswaddling the arms but our little one outgrew it before she outgrew her halo sleep sack the hospital had given us. This is a cheaper one though but as she got too big she would get her arms free in less than an hour of sleeping. Also my husband could never figure out the Velcro layout on this one for some reason although I thought it was obvious. Fit until about 1 month old, but we have a big girl who was 11 pounds at 1 month so it might fit smaller babies for longer. Good price for the use we got out of it.

We bought this prior to the birth of our son and brought it with us to the hospital for his birth. He developed pneumonia the morning after his birth and was sent to the NICU for a week. This blanket was so wonderful to have. He was hooked up to many tubes and needles, etc. and this blanket kept him from flailing his arms around and pulling something out.
Once we brought him home, we wrapped him in this blanket every night and it stayed put. It never came undone or loose. It kept him warm all night.
When we have our next baby we plan to buy a few more- one was not enough! When we had to wash it we hated to be without it.

I cannot recommend this product enough. Both of my daughters were fussy and required swaddling to sleep well. With my first, it often took two blankets to contain her flailing arms (thankfully she was born in the winter!). With my 6 week old, I tried this and it worked GREAT -- it kept her snug even though it wasn't as tight as I had needed to wrap the receiving blankets to get the same effect. The first night we used it, she slept 8 HOURS straight, and woke up happy as a clam. Why didn't they think of this sooner

We are using this swaddler with our second child, after having great results with our first. We wore out the ones we had with our daugther from sheer overuse! And we hated to put our little boy in a pink one, so time for a new one or two! Great product! helps baby feel secure and rest better in the early months

Item was not as described. It was described as fitting babies 8-14 lbs. It was too small for my 11 lb baby. We had a very difficult night time experience when we used the SwaddleMe blanket for the first time . My baby had difficulties sleeping and cried all night. I got no sleep.
I would recommend the seller changing the product description so other new parents and newborns don't go through the same unpleasant, stressful experience. I sent the product back to the seller over 2 months ago and have not yet received a response.

I bought two of these for our two cars at the beginning of the summer when I started potty training. My daughter had no accidents in the car until we went on our long road trip. We were driving from North Carolina to New Jersey. My daughter had fallen asleep in the car and we didn't want to stop and wake her up (note: stop every 2 hours for 3 year olds for potty time). She woke up screaming because she wet herself. My husband pulled off at the first exit, but there wasn't anything at this exit in remote, southern Virginia. However, we did find a car wash that you can use yourself and it was empty. So we pulled off there. As I got my daughter changed, my husband tackled the car seat. We feared the worst. However, the car seat was DRY! Except for a little leaking around the buckle, it caught about 98% of the urine. It only took about five papertowels to get the buckle clean.
I must credit my husband with what he did next. He took the piddle pad to the car wash and power-washed it. He also sprayed my daughter's shorts and underwear to get the urine out. She thought it was funny. Then we put it all in plastic shopping bags as we drove further and found a rest stop. Then my husband used the blow dryer in the bathroom to dry it. It was good to go again for the rest of our long journey.
I highly recommend this. If we didn't have it, I bet we'd still be stuck in Southern Virginia because we'd have to clean and dry the car seat itself.

I bought this for my 21-month-old who's potty trained at home. I'd hoped it would help us be able to keep her in underpants for car rides. For those little accidents where she starts to go, but realizes in time to stop and wait for the potty, it did ok, but not great. A little bit of urine wicked down to the car seat cover from the buckle, but I was able to spot clean and not have to remove the entire cover. However, if she has a bigger accident where she just goes until she's done (which doesn't often happen, but she's still pretty young, so it does from time to time), the piddle pad might as well not be on the seat. Everything soaks right through, all the way down to the car upholstery underneath the car seat. I can't even imagine trying to use this with an older child who pees more at one time. It just doesn't seem to absorb much at all. We have a Britax Boulevard, and I suppose it could be that it just isn't a great fit for our car seat. I also hate that it needs to line dry, and takes quite a while. Ultimately, I think a plastic grocery bag covered with a cloth diaper does a better job of keeping the seat dry.

Customer Reviews


I bought three of these for my new granddaughter. I had something similar for my kids when they were babies, called Pelican Bib, and they were awesome, so I didn't hesitate to order these. They were a major disappointment. This bib is way too short, so it's always in the wrong place at the wrong time. We tried one a couple of times, hoping it would work, two of them we never used, and now they're all going to Salvation Army.
The design is a great idea, but this particular interpretation missed the mark.

We've got a drawer full of bibs, but these are the bibs that our 4-year old daughter and 1.5-year old son use for every meal. If you're looking to keep clothes 100% clean, you'll need a bigger bib (or even a shirt bib), but we love these because they catch a majority of what our kids tend to drop and they're super easy to rinse off between meals. Best of all, they're free of all those nasty chemicals that tend to pop up in other plastic baby items (phthalate ; lead, among others). I'm buying another for baby 3, and will also purchase a set for Grandma ; Grandpa. (Well, Grandpa probably won't want to wear his, but maybe he can put it on the kids when they visit. :-)
