Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe Blanket Review

December 18th, 2008

If you’re a looking for a great Swaddle Blanket for a price that won’t break the bank, Kiddopotamus SwaddleMe blanket may be exactly what you are looking for.  Kiddopotamus has developed some solid design techniques that they claim will enhance your child’s safety, comfort, and developmental needs.  Of course, we all know that the real test for a swaddle blanket is whether or not it works.  Because if it does, it could mean a great night’s sleep for you and your baby, and how much is that worth to you?!?  

The SwaddleMe blanket is probably Kiddopotamus most popular and well known blanket.  The company has put the blanket through numerous safety standards, and they are constantly on the lookout for the latest in design techniques.  The SwaddleMe comes in a variety of fabrics, designs and sizes:

  • 100% Cotton Knit Solids
  • 100% Cotton Knit Prints
  • 100% Cotton Flanel
  • Microfleece Solids
  • Microfleece Prints
  • Bamboo
Swaddling Can Reduce the Risk of SIDS and help babies sleep through the night. New research shows that swaddling can help reduce the risk of SIDS by promoting better sleep when infants are on their backs.
My favorite thing about Kiddopotamus is that they have a heart.  They are an active fighter in the battle against SIDS, and each year, they donate a minimum of $100,000 to First Candle.  The First Candle Leadership Council was formed to elevate issues of infant mortality, including SIDS and stillbirth, to more appropriate levels of public concern, and to advise First Candle’s Board of Directors in securing resources for its mission.  Any company that cares this much about babies is a company that I can get behind.  That’s why we recommend you give this blanket a try.   You can generally get the SwaddleMe blanket anywhere from $9-12.

Blue Receiving Blanket by SwaddleDesigns

December 7th, 2008

This blue receiving blanket is a real winner for its look and its health benefits. Your new baby boy would sleep wonderfully in this swaddle blanket.

Swaddling your baby can reduce the rids of SIDS. Any blanket that can keep your baby warm, give them comfort, and protect them from potential harm is a winner in our book. Better yet, if you are unfamiliar with how to swaddle, this blanket comes with easy to see directions sewn onto the blanket so that you won’t forget!  The Ultimate Receiving Blanket® is the only blanket with swaddling instructions sewn to its edge. This is an excellent little perk that the folks at SwaddleDesigns has made available for all of their customers.

The blanket is made of super-soft, preshrunk cotton flannel (measuring 42 X 42 inches square). This is noticeably bigger than your typical receiving blanket, but no worries, it still rolls up nicely for travel. It should fit your diaper bag without any problem.

The blanket can be bought for $24.95 at BMB.  Just click here. And be sure to check out all of our swaddling blankets.
