So far so good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513603 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 15:06:59 +0000 Beehive 513603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the miracle blanket - J needs to have his hands swaddled down to sleep long stretches at night (and for naps too). We're sad though - this week he has started breaking out of it every night, so it may be time to switch to something else! Any suggestions for a houdini who isn't ready to sleep unswaddled yet? </p> <p>@mrswagon: We tried putting him in the woombie last night and he hated it! Did your LO like it right away, or did he have to get used to it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513388 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 14:08:27 +0000 pelikila 513388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For us it was a yay because my husband can't do a traditional swaddle so if he was in charge of putting him to sleep that night, he needed to use a miracle blanket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513271 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 13:12:05 +0000 Mrsbells 513271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we hated it. the flaps are way too wide </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513220 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 12:56:41 +0000 sooz 513220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The miracle blanket was our savior. Our LO could break out of any blanket EXCEPT for the MB. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513176 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 12:34:52 +0000 mrskc 513176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't like it. I found the swaddleme and the halo swaddle easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513135 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 12:13:50 +0000 ChelseaRose 513135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one, but only use it for naps at 11 weeks. He was breaking out of it regularly and waking up. We now use the large swaddleme blankets that are velcro closed. He doesn't break out of them and started sleeping 9:30pm-6:30am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513123 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 12:06:05 +0000 Rescuemom10 513123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm well havent used it yet but I have a miracle blanket but now I see I need to look into Woombie and the Halo sleep sacks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513119 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 12:03:31 +0000 Jenn23 513119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used it until we discovered the halo swaddle sleepsack. WAY easier and faster...just two velcros and you are done. Now THAT is a miracle blanket. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-513108 Fri, 18 Jan 2013 12:00:56 +0000 mrs. wagon 513108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used the miracle blanket religiously until LMW started breaking out of it every night. We switched to the Woombie and OMG, no turning back. All you do is zip it up! So easy!! And impossible to break out of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511935 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 21:42:47 +0000 Weagle 511935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! They're awesome. And as soon as your LO stops pooping during the night, stop changing those diapers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511916 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 21:40:58 +0000 prettylizy 511916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found all swaddles to be a PITA for diper changes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511907 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 21:38:20 +0000 mrsjyw 511907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: ahhhh congratulations on rowan!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511841 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 21:26:04 +0000 winniebee 511841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It helped us immensely. LO would bust out of very other swaddle. He needed a swaddle fo sleep ubtil 4 months. But if your LO doesnt need it to sleep long stretches you might as well ditch it then you won't have to swaddle wean later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511585 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 20:41:42 +0000 Mrs. Oyster 511585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay. It was definitely a PITA when we were still doing night time diaper changes, but once we stopped that it was the best swaddle we have. He's able to bust out of all the other ones and it seems to help him sleep longer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511360 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 20:06:21 +0000 mediagirl 511360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nay. M didn't like any swaddle. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511359 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 20:05:56 +0000 cvbee 511359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just coming in to recommend the Halo swaddle sleep sack, but it looks like you already know about Halo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511355 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 20:05:05 +0000 littlecasita1122 511355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only used it for night time and it saved us big time in the early weeks. He would get his arms out of all the other blankets we tried no matter how tight we swaddled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-511132 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 19:15:34 +0000 birdofafeather 511132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the miracle blanket for day use but not for night for the reason you said with diaper changes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/yay-or-nay-miracle-blanket#post-504122 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 17:17:36 +0000 mrsjyw 504122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we bought one a couple of weeks ago when LO was going through his 6 wk growth spurt and as we were trying to reswaddle him...(lo is 8 weeks)... while we like how tightly we can swaddle him, it's a PITA for nighttime dipe changes, and honestly we get longer stretches of sleep in the halo sleepsack (6 hours or so)... </p>
