Almost exactly a year ago, I hosted a joint baby shower for my bloggy buds Erin and Tricia. I could not have even imagined that a year later I’d be having another baby of my own! At that baby shower, I gave Erin and Tricia both some swaddlers from aden + anais. Although a big fan of swaddling, I had never tried aden + anais’ muslin swaddlers, but I’d heard great things about them so that’s why I got them for my friends. Since then I’ve heard praises for aden + anais from several other moms, including my friend Maria.
And now I get to try them out on my own little guy! I’m so excited! These swaddlers are super-soft muslin, and are just the perfect size for a nice, snug swaddle. And of course, the patterns are adorable! There are SO many benefits of swaddling, and like I said, I was already a believer. (Sophie NEEDED to be swaddled!) Now, I am glad to have another great swaddling resource to use on baby Jonah.
Another thing I like about aden + anais is that they are committed to the fight against SIDS, which swaddling is shown to help prevent. Since 2009, they’ve been donating a portion of their profits to the CJ Foundation for SIDS with their Sleep in Safety, Grow In Style campaign. The SSGS campaign educates parents about how to set up a safe sleeping environment that is cost-effective, comfortable for baby, and most importantly, reduces the risk of a sleep-related death.
Thanks, aden + anais for the beautiful muslin swaddles you sent for my baby boy, and for working to prevent SIDS deaths!
