It also supports hip-healthy development and ensures a snug, secure fit without loose blankets.

FAQs

What does 1.5 TOG mean?

TOG stands for 'Thermal Overall Grade'. A 1.5 TOG rating indicates the swaddle is suitable for moderate room temperatures, typically between 18–22°C.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Love to Dream. The swaddle should fit snugly around the chest and allow for comfortable leg movement, with the baby's head not able to slip down inside.

Can I use this swaddle in warmer temperatures?

The 1.5 TOG is best suited for 18–22°C. For warmer rooms, Love to Dream offers lighter TOG options (e.g., 0.2 TOG or 1.0 TOG).

Is the 'arms up' position safe?

Yes, the 'arms up' position is a natural sleeping position for many babies and is designed to help them self-soothe. The swaddle ensures this position is maintained safely.

How often should I wash the swaddle?

It is recommended to wash the swaddle after each use or as needed, following the care instructions. Machine washable and tumble dryer friendly for convenience.

When should I stop using a swaddle?

It's generally recommended to stop swaddling when a baby shows signs of rolling over, or typically around 3-6 months. This swaddle is designed to help facilitate that transition.

Can I use this with a baby who has reflux?

While the swaddle is designed for comfort, consult with your pediatrician regarding the best sleep solutions for a baby with reflux, as specific positioning might be advised.

Troubleshooting

Baby seems uncomfortable with arms up

Allow a transition period of a few nights. Some babies may initially resist the 'arms up' position but often adapt quickly. Ensure the swaddle is the correct size and not too tight around the chest.

Swaddle seems too warm or too cool

Adjust the baby's sleepwear underneath based on the room temperature. If the room is warmer than 22°C, consider a lighter TOG swaddle. If cooler than 18°C, add a warmer layer underneath.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the zipper up and down. Regular use should smooth out operation.

Baby is escaping the swaddle

Check that the swaddle is fastened securely around the chest and that the correct size has been chosen. The snug fit is crucial for preventing escape.
