This is seriously the most important blanket I've ever owned for a baby. Swaddling can be a mother's best tool in helping a fussy baby feel secure and quiet them enough to sleep for long periods of time. The tight feeling of swaddling mimics the womb and keeps baby from jerking or startling themsleves awake. The design of this blanket is superior to other swaddle blankets available and makes sure baby stays wrapped up all night. I never worry about her kicking off the blankets and getting cold or accidentally suffocating from loose blankets. Every baby should have a miracle blanket!
