FAQs

Are these blankets suitable for newborns?

Yes, the soft 100% cotton flannel and lightweight design are ideal for newborns, providing a gentle and secure swaddling experience.

How do I best use them for swaddling?

Fold the blanket into a triangle, place the baby on top with their neck aligned with the top edge, wrap one side across, tuck it under, then fold the bottom up and wrap the other side across, tucking it securely. Ensure the swaddle is snug but allows for leg movement.

Can these blankets be used in a crib?

While they can be used as a layer, it's crucial to follow safe sleep guidelines. Never place loose blankets in a crib with an infant. Swaddling should be discontinued when a baby shows signs of rolling over.

What is the return policy?

Elaine Karen offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for customer satisfaction. Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for details.

Are these blankets hypoallergenic?

Made from 100% natural cotton, they are generally considered hypoallergenic and gentle for sensitive baby skin. However, individual sensitivities can vary.

How many blankets are included in this pack?

This pack includes 12 receiving blankets.

What are the dimensions of each blanket?

Each blanket measures 30 inches by 40 inches.

Troubleshooting

Blanket feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can reduce the absorbency and natural feel of cotton flannel. Tumble drying on low can help restore softness.

Baby is still fussy when swaddled.

Ensure the swaddle is snug but not too tight, allowing for hip movement. Also, consider if the room temperature is optimal; the lightweight blanket may need layering in cooler environments.

Fabric seems to be pilling after a few washes.

This is a common characteristic of some cotton flannel fabrics. Continue washing as recommended; the pilling often reduces over time. Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim.
