Have you read The Happiest Baby on the Block? This book (and Becoming Baby Wise) has always been my go to book through the birth of all five of my children. The Happiest Baby on the Block focuses on 5 S’s. They include…
1.) Swaddle
2.) Side or stomach position (supervised, normally in your arms)
3.) Shush
4.) Swing
5.) Suck
Of all of my kids, three off these are very important to me – the swaddle, the shush (white noise) and the suck (I love pacifiers!) Recently I gave birth to twin boys. From day one, we realized holding them and keeping them feeling secure would not be as easy as it was for the singletons (first three kids.) Since this was the case, the swaddle became all the more important in our home so they could feel secure and held. I have used many different swaddles in my life. Blankets, wraps and more but I have recently fell in love with the latest swaddle – The Ollie Swaddle.
The Ollie Swaddle is made from custom moisture-wicking material to reduce the risk of overheating. I think this was my favorite feature. The swaddle is soft to the touch. It is stretchy, it reminds me very much of quality bathing sit materials. This most recent delivery gave me two 4 pound premies and we began using this swaddle around 3 weeks of age when they had hit 6 pounds (yes, I fed and fed and fed – they grew fast.) The swaddle is custom fit and I can individualized it to meet the needs and size of each little one. Additionally, if you do a dream feed (feed without waking) in the night, there is easy access for diaper changes accessible through opening at the bottom. You never have to un-swaddle your child!
This swaddle is easy to use! In fact, it’s easy as 1…2…3 (and 4). These simple steps give your child a tight fit and comfy swaddle. Unlike many other swaddle brands, I love that this one-size promotes ease with transitional stages. I never have to buy a size larger – Woot, woot. Talk about money saved!
The Ollie Swaddle is an adorable shower gift idea. Take a look at the adorable packaging. The packaging come in this adorable box with a washable mesh bag. We saved the box to store things on top of the kids’ dresser like pacifiers, a thermometer and more.
