"I definitely recommend Halo"

"The Halo SleepSack has been a lifesaver during those exhausting nighttime shifts. Its easy-to-use Velcro design means I can get my baby swaddled quickly without fuss."
"The Velcro closures make late-night diaper changes so much easier, and I appreciate how securely it keeps our baby wrapped without being too tight."
"I've tried a few different swaddles, but the Halo Sleepsack Swaddle has been a game-changer for us. The adjustable fit is fantastic for growing babies."

Ergopouch
4.3
(12)
"Ergopouch club here! We had LTD but they didn’t allow for as much options. For example, ergopouch cocoon gives you arms by side or arms out and up."
"My daughter loved the Ergopouch Cocoon swaddle bags. It would keep her arms a bit restricted, but not too much."
"I highly recommend purchasing an ergopouch and love to dream secondhand and see what your baby prefers."
"My baby... loved the ergopouch cocoon."
"We love the ergopouch transitional swaddle sleep sack! We started with one arm out, then 2."
"I like ergopouch as they have more longevity if you have a smaller baby."
"I bought ergo. You can do arms in, out and you can get an attachment that makes it arms up."
"I would def recommend going down your path of buying a few second hand just to try xx"
"My favorite is the ergopouch cocoon (will use a lesser tog this time)."
"We used traditional swaddling before changing to ergos and love to dreams later on."
#6
Woolino
4.5
(10)
"The woolino sleep sack is great because it covers a big temp range and will fit until baby is 2 years old."
"We use Woolino. It’s pricey but worth it and regulates temp so you don’t have to worry about TOG."
"Woolinos are life!!"
"The woolino ultimate one is sized 2-24 months and fit our 9 week old without modification."
"I love for many reasons."
"Woolino!"
"Woolino is expensive but it’s a no TOG system. You can use it until 2 years old"
"The woolino is good until around 2 years and I I wish I’d just bought two and skipped the rest (kyte, gunamuna, halo etc.)"
"Merino sleep sacks can generally be used all year round because they help regulate temp."
"Then we moved on the the Woolino for 0-6 months, then the Woolino that is 3-24 m"

(6)
"I like the miracle blanket swaddle. Only one my LOs haven’t been able to escape!"
"The only one that worked for us."
"We think Miracle Blanket is the best out of them all."

#10
Woombie
4.8
(4)
"I swear by the woombie."
"Oh for sure these are the best. No zips that you have to find in the dark or Velcro that loses its stick or is too big for baby."
"The Woombie was the perfect solution for us. It kept his arms from beating him about his own head, and it is stretchy and allows for movement."
"I know you've already gotten a lot of feedback but we had great luck with the "Woombie." It's another swaddled that you zip up."

#16

4.7
(3)

#17
Nested Bean
4.7
(3)
"Used halo as a newborn, transitioned to nested bean around 4 months, and agree--he's less likely to wake when I lay him down with the chest weight."
