He started frequently waking up through the night again as well.
He is almost 6 months now, and the past few weeks he has been hard to put down for naps and bed time. We didn’t buy the sleep sack because he had a well established bed time routine and was sleeping through the night. We chose nested bean because we weighed benefit versus risk of weighted sleep wear, and this does not put weight on babies whole body which is safer compared to the Merlin sleep suit and dreamland. We started out with 2 of the nested bean transitional swaddles when our baby was 6 weeks old. The weight on just the upper body is plenty to help settle and soothe baby. We like nested bean because it does not weigh arms or legs down allowing baby to stir, and be startled which is protective against SIDS in younger babies. They have not been proven to be safe for sleep. Save your money and get those.ĭo your research on sleepsacks and weighted sleepwear. Long story short - there are cheaper options on the market that I would say do the job just as well (at least for my baby). Then all of us first time moms feel like we're missing something special and buy it, then by the time you realize it's all just marketing crap and it's the same thing you could get for 1/3 of the price, it's too late to get your money back. For some reason all these companies try to market their items as some kind of God-send for babies and charge so much for them. I don't think his sleep quality was improved much if any, so while I like the weight and comfort of this sack, I just can't justify the cost. When this one no longer fits, I'll probably just go back to my old sleep sack that was like $10-12. So when this is in the laundry, I use my old sleep sack as a back up, which breaks the consistency of the "egg weight" and probably makes it even less effective.
Especially when he's already outgrown the one we just got like a month or two ago. But for this price, I can't justify buying a back up. I like to have two of things like this so if we have a spill or diaper leak I can wash one while we use the other. I expected to at least get to 12 months or so before having to size up. I ordered the 6-15 month size and he's already almost out of leg room. I like the feel of the fabric, the zipper access and the weight of the fabric (not too heavy or too light). I'm not 100% sure that it vastly improved my babies sleep, but I'll go with it.
