Not quite perfect, but definitely helpful
I have used several of these in both the cotton solids and prints. I have a 3-month old daughter and at 11 pounds she is just starting to outgrow the small size but is too little for the large size. They need a medium size. One thing I like about the prints versus solid colors is that it’s easy to tell when the swaddle is right side out which can be tricky with the solid colors in the middle of the night when the light is low and you’re getting the swaddle set up one-handed because the baby is in your other arm. There have been several occasions where she manages to wriggle an arm out which is why I don’t give this 5 stars. Even though the velcro pads are designed to avoid catching on other things in the laundry, the swaddle has been stuck on something more than once when I take the clothes out. We also own a “Miracle Blanket” which really keeps her arms from escaping, but I find it a pain to use compared to this one. When we first brought her home we swaddled her in blankets but found that most of the time they would loosen up and her arms would get free. For the price, I think it is a worthwhile product.
