Brings back memories

Ahhh... the Miracle Blanket.

My best friend Carol is due this spring, so I am gathering my list of "must have" products. I went to the Miracle Blanket site, and man does this video bring back memories. Swaddling became an art for us! Trey couldn't sleep unswaddled, so for 6 months (if memory serves me right) we swaddled for every nap and at night. Once he got too strong for the amazing Miracle Blanket, i sewed velcro strips onto the blanket to make it stay. It wasn't pretty, but it did the trick. And remember parents...a swaddle is not a light wrap. Its not for warmth. You have to tightly wrap so they can't move.
