I loved the idea of this swaddle and how well made it was. This does not mean it couldn’t work for you though! I just have a sassy little lady. She will only fall asleep with one certain type of blanket and will only let me swaddle her one way. So sadly this lovely swaddle did not work for us. The girl is demanding and emotional already at a month old! I am in trouble I think. She hates pacifiers and will only be held to go to sleep a certain way. She is really particular for the things she likes and is not shy to tell you when she doesn’t like something.

Hayden was fine with anything we gave him he loved any pacifier, any bottle, and any blanket. One reason for some of her fussiness is because she is a super gassy baby and the poor girl has terrible reflux. Halli on the other hand needs to be held, talked to, rocked, bounced, and sang to pretty much all the time. He was just a happy, easy going, low maintenance baby and he is still that way. Hayden was very easy going and was more than fine to sit in his swing or bouncy chair while I showered or made dinner. Halli already has an interesting little personality, which is VERY different compared to my son Hayden. I am majorly sleep deprived and couldn’t wait to try something that could mean more sleep for everyone. You know when you get to the point where you would try anything to get even a few more minutes of uninterrupted sleep. I was more than excited to get this washed and ready to use as soon as I could. Swaddled nice and snug and held in place by velcro The sweet little bird is one of the spots the swaddle is lightly weighted, the other 2 are at each of her sides. Halli is in the little pouch, but I also think she is big enough now to not be in it as well. It has a large wing span so I could swaddle her nice and snug. The swaddle was also super easy to use and get her all swaddled up. I love baby products made by moms.” Moms are brilliant! They know what is important and what is not for baby products.

The swaddle is so super soft, and I thought was even softer after I washed and dried it! “ The Zen Swaddle™ was designed by a mom, Manasi Gangan, who came up with the idea because her second son could never calm and sleep without being held. Any baby product that can grow with them is an extra bonus in my book especially since I have big babies that grow and get super chunky really quickly. The blanket has a little pouch to put their feet in when they are just tiny, and then they can be wrapped out of the pouch when they have grown out of it. It is also designed so you can swaddle your baby with their arms in or out. The lightly weighted areas are to give the feeling where your hands would be when you are snuggling your sweet baby. One spot is a cute little bird on the top where their chest is and two spots on the sides. The blanket is lightly weighted in three spots. It is designed to give your baby the sensation that they are being held. I was so impressed with the Zen Swaddle™ by Nested Bean.
