Miracle Blanket Review and Giveaway! Ends 07/16

Giveaway Closed!

Last week I had the opportunity to review The Miracle Blanket.

The Miracle Blanket is a blanket specially designed for proper swaddling of your baby. Why swaddle? Here are some facts (courtesy of The Miracle Blanket):

  • FACT: Medical research showing the incredible efficacy of PROPER swaddling has been done using a snugly wrapped blanket with arms down at-the-sides.
  • FACT: Babies are not coordinated enough to self-soothe (ie. suck hands) reliably until 14-weeks. Swaddling is a substitute during this time to prevent awakening from the Moro Reflex.
  • FACT: PROPER swaddling has been shown in clinical studies to calm a fussy, colicky baby while helping baby sleep safer, netter, deeper and longer.
  • FACT: PROPER swaddling has been shown in clinical studies to reduce SIDS by as much as 30% even over back-sleeping babies without swaddling.
  • FACT: Wearable blankets are not PROPER swaddles.
  • And here are the great things about The Miracle Blanket:

  • This unique, patented design combines all the aspects of swaddling that helps colicky, fussy babies sleep while eliminating everything that could be problematic or meaningless.

  • Miracle Blanket was designed with all the true swaddling FACTS in mind.

  • Miracle Blanket allows for freedom of movement and development of the hips/knees.

  • Miracle Blanket uses no knots, zippers or Velcro that could disturb or scratch baby and it will not unravel.

  • With over 1-million blanket’s sold and approaching a decade on the market, Miracle Blanket is the most proven product of it’s kind.

  • This unique, patented design combines all the aspects of swaddling that helps colicky, fussy babies sleep while eliminating everything that could be problematic or meaningless.

    I swaddled my twins when they were first born, but I had problems with it. The blankets I would use would come unraveled as they would move in the night, s switched to fleece swaddlers with velcro. Those were ok, but my daughter didn’t like the fleece (being in the Pacific Northwest we have cold nights, so the light fleece was appropriate), so I switched her to a jersey swaddler with velcro. But every time I would take either of them out to change them in the night, the velcro rip would wake them up. So after about 2 months I stopped swaddling them altogether. They both began waking up in the night A LOT, especially my son. It was so bad that we camped out in the living room on nights when my husband had to get up early the next day. Plus I was getting little sleep.

    My twins are 3 months old now. They began mostly sleeping through the night (5-6 hours) around 2 weeks ago. Then I was sent two Miracle Blankets to test out. The first night didn’t seem any different, still slept 5-6 hours and then woke up. But the second night…

    9 hours.

    9 HOURS!!! 9 blissful, wonderful, uneventful hours of sleep!!

    And the next night? Another 9 hours! And every night since….

    So, do like the Miracle Blanket? ABSOLUTELY!

    I love that it’s easy to use. The babies love it too. Just this evening my daughter was throwing a little “I’m too sleepy” fit and once I swaddled her in The Miracle Blanket, she calmed down and was asleep within 10 minutes.

My happy boy…

My sweet happy sleep-through-the-night babies!
