The Miracle Blanket

When we had Leo, we lasted 3 sleepless weeks until we finally went searching for help.  Walking up and down the aisles of the expensive baby store we were sure we would find something that would help him sleep (or that would help us sleep through his crying...kidding.) 

Suddenly all the lights went out, angels started singing and the spotlight directed us to "The Miracle Blanket."  With promises like "Your baby will sleep better, longer and will be less fussy since he/she will finally get the sleep they (and you) so desperately need" we were sold.

I don't remember how much we spent for this miracle but it was worth every penny!  Leo loved his blanket and we had to swaddle him at night until he was 7 or 8 months old!

  

Elena is a fan as well.  We let her sleep on her own a few times last week to see if she needed it and she woke up in 1/2 the time.  So she is now swaddled every night.  If you are wondering how it works, here you go:

First, arms in.  Then, legs in.

Then wrap the long portion of the blanket

The blanket should be rolled around the child, not the other way around ... Jason
