Full details

FAQs

What are the dimensions of each swaddle blanket?

Each swaddle blanket measures 112 cm x 112 cm (approximately 44 inches x 44 inches).

How many swaddle blankets are included in a pack?

This product includes a pack of 2 swaddle blankets.

Can I use these swaddles for tummy time?

Yes, the large, soft surface makes them suitable for supervised tummy time sessions.

Are these blankets suitable for newborns?

Yes, the soft muslin and breathable nature are ideal for newborns, providing comfort and security.

How do I ensure the swaddle is safe for my baby?

Ensure the swaddle is not too tight around the hips (allow room for leg movement) and that the baby's face is always uncovered and they can breathe easily. Always follow safe sleep guidelines.

Will the colors fade after washing?

While generally durable, excessive exposure to direct sunlight during drying or harsh detergents might cause slight fading over a long period. Washing inside out can help preserve colors.

What makes this swaddle 'breathable'?

The 'breathable' quality comes from the open weave of the muslin fabric, which allows air to circulate freely, helping to prevent the baby from overheating.

Troubleshooting

Blanket feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can coat the muslin fibers. Air drying instead of tumble drying can also help maintain softness.

Baby seems too warm even when swaddled.

While the muslin is breathable, ensure the room temperature is comfortable and the swaddling technique is not too tight. Consider lighter layers underneath or swaddling for shorter periods.

Fabric snagged or has a pull.

Gently try to work the snag back through from the underside. Due to the open weave, it's best to keep the blankets away from sharp objects like jewelry or rough surfaces.
