A: Hi there - We recommend you choose the swaddle size by your babies weight. For 11 lbs we recommend size Small which goes up to 13 lbs and 25"in length. You can also refer to the size chart on our website. https://lovetodream.com/pages/size-guide Thanks!
A: Hi- Thanks for your question! Our swaddles are sized by weight. At this time the smallest size we have is Newborn which fits 5 to 8 lbs.
A: Hi! The item will not shrink in the wash. You are OK to wash and tumble dry. Please note the item is meant to fit snuggly. Thanks!
A: Hi! Our swaddles come in various TOG weights. The 0.2 TOG is great for summertime. It's up to you how to dress the baby under the swaddle but for a warmer room a onesie should work. See our site for more information on TOGS and our recommendations for dressing baby in various temperatures. https://lovetodream.com/blogs/baby-sleep/what-is-a-tog-rating
A: Hi- Since our S and M can both fit a 13 lb baby both would fit but if you are buying new, I would recommend the Medium so your baby can continue to wear it as they grow. Thanks!
A: Hi There! The Swaddle up allows the baby's to be in an arms up position. If the swaddle is fitted properly they should have one arm up on each side of their body. The arms should not be crossed. Please check our website for more info.
A: Hi there! At 6 months we recommend your baby to try the Swaddle Up Transition bag. This allows baby to transition from the arms up swaddle to having their arms free with the snug comfort around the chest of a swaddle. Once the baby is able to roll over the transition bag is the best choice.
A: Hi there! The Swaddles are meant to go over your baby's onesies. If you are concerns about temperture please check out our lighter weight .2 TOG styles on the website.
A: Hi! Thanks for reaching out. All our products have weight suggestions in the descriptions. Please note the current weight of your baby and compare that to the product size chart. The swaddles are meant to be snug to give a swaddled feel. Small is 8-13 lbs and Medium is 13-19 lbs. If the baby is showing signs of rolling we suggest moving to the Transition Bags. Those sizes are also by weight. Thanks!
A: Hello and thanks for checking in! Our Swaddle UP is suitable from “day-one” up until your baby is showing signs of rolling over. Even if they are a “squiggler” as long as they are placed on their back to sleep, in their own sleep environment, the swaddle is still suitable. The arms-up position allows baby to self soothe by bringing their hands to their face or mouth whilst still providing enough resistance in the wings to calm the moro/startle reflex in the first 3 months. As a baby gets older, they start to move around the cot, this is part of their development and is great for them. You should not inhibit this natural desire for movement and your baby's arms should not be restricted when they are able to roll over. No matter what their age, as soon as baby starts showing the signs of getting ready to roll, it’s really important for both their safety and development that you transition them from arms-in swaddling to arms-free sleep. For some babies this can happen as early as 8 weeks but for others it may be much later, anywhere from 3 – 6 months. So, you need to be on the lookout! Signs that baby is getting ready to roll include: - Starting to roll over during playtime - Pushing up during tummy time - They can lift their legs and flop them to the side - Attempting to roll when swaddled
