Product Description

Swaddling a baby in the safe, soft comfort of muslin is something that mothers and their babies in other countries have enjoyed for centuries. Now the comfort, safety and breathable weave of larger muslin swaddling clothes is available here in the United States from Aden + Anais.

muslin wraps are soft and light

Muslin is a unique cotton fabric first introduced into England in the late 17th century. Muslin has a light, open weave that allows air to flow seamlessly through the material. The soft natural fibers allow your baby's body temperature to adjust naturally, eliminating over-heating, but ensuring warmth and comfort. aden + anais wraps will allow you to safely swaddle your baby, giving you confidence that your baby will experience a peaceful and secure sleep.

easy to wash

These delicate cotton wraps are light, yet extremely durable, and can be machine washed and tumble-dried. Best of all, the more you wash aden + anais muslin wraps, the softer they get, as the air from drying creates a unique waffled effect in the fabric.

Be sure to wash before your first use.

Each packet includes 2 or 4 large unique cotton muslin wraps (47 inches x 47 inches) and are packed in a 100% recyclable bag.

There are two methods used to swaddle: the Basic method and the Aussie Method.

This age old technique is used to make your baby feel safe and secure:

  • Swaddling helps to make your baby feel secure and comfortable, as it is designed to imitate the security of the enclosed surroundings they . experienced in the womb
  • Swaddling helps your baby sleep on their back, the pediatrician recommended sleeping position
  • Swaddling helps your baby stay asleep by reducing sudden arm and leg movements (startle reflexes)
  • Swaddling keeps your baby's face uncovered
  • Swaddling prevents your baby moving around the crib and getting into dangerous or uncomfortable positions

New research shows that swaddled babies sleep better with fewer spontaneous awakenings and longer REM sleep, yet are more likely to experience cortical arousals from outside stimulation. (Journal of Pediatrics 2005; 115; 1307-1311)

Because swaddled babies sleep better, parents are more likely to place baby to sleep on their backs rather than in the unsafe tummy position. (Journal of Pediatrics Vol. 110 No. 6 Dec 2002)

The aden + anais muslin wrap is not only great for swaddling, but has many other uses as well.

I love these! We received on with a gift with purchase and are now so addicted. I don't leave the house with out it. They wash up so soft. I will be using these for a long time even past swaddling as a lightweight blanket. And I can't wait to try more of their products.

These are a fantastic size & feel. I was almost able to swaddle our 2 year old (he wanted to be wrapped like his new baby brother). We swaddled #1 until he was 12 months old - it was the only way he could stay focused enough to nurse... Wish we had had these back then. They were a great gift. Any swaddling parent's dream.

I love these. Yes, you need the four pack! We used these for over 6 months for swaddling, and after that, we used them as a light sheet for the baby in the summer or on the stroller. They are very large - so much larger than any other swaddle we tried - and these ones are also MUCH larger than the Target ones. The target ones are half or 3/4th the size, which would mean they wouldn't be useful for a baby older than a month or so.

They have a 4 pack of these at Target for $29.99. They feel the same, but could be lower quality, not sure. But i do feel like I got gypped for paying $20 for one! I do love the blanket, so only giving four stars just for the price.

This is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE baby gift to give. Every mom I've given these to tells me later how much she loves them. They are great for so many things...swaddling bigger babies, nursing cover, ground cover, sunshade, you name it. They wash beautifully and do not bind or get ragged. The prints are absolutely delightful. I receive compliments all the time on my mod prints, especially the green apple and bumblebees. You wouldn't think a blanket could be that special, but these are really wonderful!

We love these blankets. When my son was born in June we swaddled him every night and it helped him sleep so well, but then around 2 1/2 months he was able to unwrap himself in a regular receiving blanket. We did a little research and found these blankets, which are a little bigger than the normal ones. We have also covered him from the sun with them and used it as a nursing cover. They are truly the best blankets on the market for swaddling, and they have so many more uses.

I love these blankets. They are a must have for bigger babies, the receiving blankets you buy at places like Target are way too small. However, the blankets are pricey. You can get a four pack of 45"x45" for much cheaper at Target.com. I would say they are a must have.

I absolutely love thse blankets and they are now the "must have" gift I get for all my friends who are expecting. I use them daily for multiple things like a stroller cover, nursing shawl, picnic blanket, floor cover and swaddler. These are a great investment!!

These are the best light-weight swaddling blankets around. Receiving blankets are way too small for any newborn over 7 lbs, and the rectangular shape of most receiving blankets make proper swaddling difficult with even smaller babies. But, these wraps are roomy for even a large 3 month old, and their light weight makes them ideal for the summer months.

Reviewed by Erin on Monday 27 April, 2009

My baby weighed over 9 pounds when he was born, and now weighs over 16 pounds at 3 months old. The large square design made these blankets the only ones we could swaddle him in; rectangular receiving blankets were a joke. They would still fit as a swaddle if he didn't learn to wiggle out of it at 2.5 months. I love how lightweight and soft they are, and they have so many great uses. These are by far my favorite baby item!

These blankets are definitely worth every penny. My Mom gave us two, one single and one double layer. My husband and I prefer to swaddle our daughter in these over any other blankets or velcro swaddlers that we own. The properties of the muslin allow you to swaddle more securely, but the material is breathable and keeps baby warm without over heating.

These swaddles are amazing. We ordered them when our 4 month old had outgrown her old swaddles. These are the best, they stay swaddled, are very soft and breathable, yet kept her warm and snug. Also, they work super well as blankets to take to cover the stroller. We also throw them down on the floor when she needs a place to roll around on. They fold up into small spaces to pack easily. And, they really do get softer every time you wash them. Worth every penny!!

I love these blankets! Although they seem expensive, they are well worth the money. They are bigger than most blankets, so they can be used to swaddle even bigger babies. I wish I would have known about these when my older two children were little.
