Ziggle bunny print muslin swaddle baby blanket

New parents love swaddles for several important reasons let us tell you some of them:

• Helps babies sleep better Swaddling mimics the snug, secure feeling babies experienced in the womb, which helps them feel calm and safe. This familiar sensation often helps newborns settle more easily and sleep for longer stretches, which is invaluable for exhausted new parents.
• Reduces the startle reflex Newborns have a natural startle reflex (called the Moro reflex) where their arms suddenly jerk outward, often waking them up. Swaddling gently keeps their arms secure, preventing these sudden movements from disrupting their sleep. Also it helps to put the baby down feet first and then lower the upper body. We love useful new parenting tips here at In The Box baby Hampers.
• Soothes fussy babies The gentle pressure of a swaddle can be calming for babies who are overstimulated or fussy. Many parents find it's an effective tool for settling their baby during crying episodes or before naps.
• Prevents scratching Babies have surprisingly sharp little nails and limited control over their movements. Swaddling keeps their hands covered and still, preventing them from accidentally scratching their face.
• Maintains safe sleep position A properly swaddled baby stays on their back more easily, which is the recommended safe sleep position to reduce SIDS risk.
• Gives parents confidence For new parents who may feel uncertain about how to comfort their newborn, swaddling provides a concrete technique they can use. Successfully swaddling and calming their baby gives parents a sense of competence during those early, sometimes overwhelming weeks.
• Creates a sleep routine Using a swaddle as part of a bedtime routine helps signal to babies that it's time to sleep, establishing helpful sleep associations from early on.
• Material & Comfort The muslin is made from thick, 100% soft cotton that becomes softer with every wash, making it gentle on your baby's delicate skin and increasingly comfortable over time.
• Generous Size At 120cm x 120cm, this is an extra-large swaddle that provides ample coverage for wrapping your baby securely , while still being portable enough to fold and store easily.
• Versatile Uses The large size makes it perfect for multiple purposes including swaddling, use as a lightweight blanket, burp cloth, nursing cover, stroller cover, changing mat, and even as a play mat when you're out and about.
• Practical Features The muslin is colourfast, machine washable at 30°C, and suitable for tumble drying, making it easy to care for and maintain. It's also highly absorbent and quick-drying.
