Thank You BMB Customers

I haven’t been able to do this enough, but I wanted to take some time to thank you to all of our customers!  You guys are the best!  BlanketMyBaby has steadily grown each month for the past six months, and we don’t plan on stopping any time soon.  You are helping us do that.  So, thank you!

We are continuing to add more blankets to our selection in an effort to be your one stop shop on the internet for all of your baby blanket needs.  We are even looking into adding additional categories to our site.  So, be on the lookout for that.

Our most popular blankets have been and could continue to be our aden and anais 4 packs.  We have scoured the internet for you in an effort to give you the lowest net price of blankets + shipping.  Many of you have heard the great news at how great these swaddling blankets are, and you are spreading the word.  Again, thank you!  These blankets get softer with every wash and are excellent for swaddling.  Target has come out with their own line of these blankets for $29.99, but the quality is not the same and the blankets are smaller.  So, we look forward to being the best destination of aden + anais 4 packs.  Plus, if you are interested in the sleeping bags, let us know!  We might start adding those blankets for when your baby is growing and outgrowing his or her blanket.

Ok, I guess I’ll wrap it up.  I just can’t say THANK YOU enough!  We hope your Christmas shopping is going well and that you will be able to focus on this wonderful season for its true meaning.

Best,

Eric

How Important is Sleep?

We’re back to offer another great video from Expert Village.

For our babies to function their best, they need a good night’s sleep.  Newborns will be sleeping anywhere from 10 and 18 hours a day, and this varies greatly from baby to baby.  There also will have very little adherence to night and day, which makes it very difficult for mom and dad.  By around 8 weeks of age, your baby will start to get a bit more predictable.  By 6 months of age, most babies are sleeping a total of about 14 hours a day.  A 3 month old is going to be taking naps of 2, 3, or 4 short nights a day.  By the age of 6-9 months, most babies are sleeping in their naps in the morning and night.

Most children will fall asleep in their bassenet right away, but others need some transition time.  Perhaps a massage, talking, or cuddling up to their favorite blanket.  We can help there!  We have some great new receiving blankets by Luvable Friends that provide tremendous value.  You can get a 6 Pack of blankets for only $14.95.  Check em out.

New Functionality

We are ever working to improve the functionality of our website so that you our welcomed guest will have the best shopping experience possible.  Today, if you went to our site, you will notice that we added several new categories in which to shop for blankets, all sorted by color.  So, if you are particular about finding a color, it will be much easier for you to navigate our site.  In addition to blue, pink and green baby blankets, you can now shop by yellow, orange, purple, red and brown blankets!  There are many choices to choose from.

Happy Camper

Soon, this navigation will look even better.  We’ll be separating your shopping experience on the home page by category, color, material, and price.  This is a functionality rarely seen on other baby websites, and we hope it sets us apart in the industry.  On top of this, it’ll be easier for you to check out our blog as we will have the latest blog post on the home page.

Also, we are still on an aggressive hunt for adding more of the best baby blankets available.  We have top brands already including Swaddle Designs, AllyZabba, Sleep Pea Pod and more.  We are currently out of stock on our aden + anais blankets, but hope to have those replenished soon.  We are also looking to add some great value in receiving blankets from Luvable Friends.  We hope to provide 4, 5 and 6 packs of receiving blankets for a VERY low price.  Be on the lookout for those products soon.  As always, if you have a favorite brand of blankets that aren’t on the site, let us know about it, and we’ll do our best to add them.
