When I was about 34 weeks pregnant, I got an email press release about the TrueWomb swaddler. At first I was like, “eh, I already have a really great swaddler I like..” but THEN I watched the TrueWomb video and I was sold! Check it out below:
Cool, right? I couldn’t NOT review that after watching the video. So TrueWomb sent me a swaddler to review, and I LOVE it. My husband loves it, too, even my mom (who like me, is um…mechanically challenged) finds it very easy to use. AND it keeps Jonah very snug. He CANNOT get out of it, and he loves being in it. Here’s what I like about the TrueWomb:
- It has pockets for baby’s arms and legs to keep them secure
- It has giant, really strong velcro closures which do NOT come loose
- It’s really easy to use, even in the middle of the night after you are cross-eyed from sleep-deprivation
I will be reviewing a couple of other swaddlers, and I will let you know how they compare!
The one “drawback” I can see to the TrueWomb is that it comes in different sizes – this is actually good AND bad. It’s good because you can swaddle your baby longer, it’s bad because you have to purchase an additional swaddler as your baby outgrows them. BUT, I can say that so far, the TrueWomb is well worth the cost. They also offer a daytime “weaning” swaddle to help get your baby weaned off of swaddling as he or she gets older. I am really interested in this as well as we had to cold-turkey un-swaddle Sophie when she outgrew her swaddler at about 5 months and it was pretty much the saddest day of my life!
So: my review: this is a GREAT product – well done, TrueWomb!
