BEST FOR ARMS UP: Love To Dream Swaddle UP
When babies are first born, they usually love to have their arms up just like most did in utero. The Love To Dream Swaddle is an easy to use, no fuss swaddle for your new little one. I recommend the 1.0 TOG for a warmer sleep environment, and the 2.5 TOG for a cooler sleep environment. Follow their weight sizing for the best fit for your baby.

5 to 8.5 pounds

BEST FOR ADJUSTABILITY: Halo Sleepsack Swaddle
The Halo Sleepsack Swaddle is a classic and one of my favorites because it easily transitions with your baby as they grow.
0-8 weeks: Arms in, up or down
8-12 weeks: One arm out, alternating each nap/sleep time
12 weeks+: Both arms out with the wrap still secure around baby's waist

BEST SILENT VELCRO: The Butterfly Swaddle
Two words.... SILENT. VELCRO! Picture it being 2am, your baby is up to feed and needs a diaper change. You start to take their swaddle off and you have to get through the awfully loud riiiipppp as you pull apart the velcro pieces- your baby wakes up startled and takes longer to settle back to sleep. Avoid all of that night time craziness with this swaddle! The Butterly Swaddle is incredibly quiet which makes those night time changes a breeze. The chest wrap can also come off separately and helps transition to the arms out position.
The Butterfly Swaddle 1.5 TOG
7 to 12 pounds
The Butterfly Swaddle 1.5 TOG
12 to 17 pounds
BEST LUXURY SWADDLE: Kyte Baby Sleep Bag Swaddler
The Kyte Baby products use the most luxurious silky smooth and comforting fabric! It is made of Bamboo and a small percentage of spandex so it is extremely soft, breathable, and stretchy. The only downside is they need to be hung to dry, BUT the one of a kind fabric makes it worth it.
Kyte Baby Sleep Bag Swaddler 1.0 TOG
Up to 13 pounds
When choosing the right swaddle size for your new baby, look at each product's size chart because sizing will vary! Visit this post to learn more about what a TOG rating is and how to figure out what TOG is right for your baby.
*Always stop swaddling with "arms in" or with any arm restrictions at the first signs of rolling which typically happens between 8 weeks and 12 weeks of age*
