I just came across this, and I'm intrigued! It's a swaddle strap that leaves the legs free - seems perfect for warm weather.
Anybody used one before? Think it would be worth trying?

OMG I was JUST thinking the other day that somebody needs to make something like this! Although my thoughts were because of diaper changes. Anxious to hear if its been used!

Dang, $30? It looks cool but I'd swaddle over it anyways because I'd think baby could wriggle out. But it looks really cool as a reinforcement!

@TurtleDoves: I'm not sure how they could wriggle out of this vs any other swaddle?

Watch the video-there's a pillow thing of some kind to keep the arms down! Almost like a guide
My baby sweats SO much in her swaddle-I've been wondering how warm she will be this summer. Gross baby

@blackbird: I just bought one! I'll report back the heat is what sold me - sweaty baby is no fun

@aprk: that's why i'ddouble swaddle (the only way it's ever worked for us!) always had 2...but then again: we had a winter baby so the double swaddle was a good thing.

I love the swaddle strap so far. It is to much easier to put on than the miracle blanket, and sturdy while still being soft. Thumbs up for MOTN feeding and diaper changes, too.

Glad you like it! We used something similar...the halo swaddle sacks, to kep ds from overheating in a double swaddle in summer, and it worked pretty well too. Your strap looks nicer than what we had though

@coacheswife123: @mrskc: I think the big cloth diaper butt makes him look even smaller, lol
@MerryC: this was a random google find. A bit of a gamble at $30, but I'm pleased with it
Also I just noticed that in these pictures the swaddle is on upside down. Oops!

This looks great. Wish I has known about it sooner since we are probably about a few weeks to a month away from swaddle weaning.

@aprk: Haha! He looks so teeny and cute!
How long have you used it now? I'm really intrigued by this!

Omg love their video of the little guy. He was a great real actor and immediately stopped fussing when the swaddle strap was on him! Such an interesting product. I would have bought one to try for sure but we're done! I thought it would be similar to the miracle blanket "strap" part but it's not. I like how small it is too!

@shopaholic: just on night #2 right now. I really love how quick it goes on, and the fact that he's not so overheated with a regular swaddle

We have an old halo blanket that has the wrap part as removable. It's fleece. So we took the wrap part off, put LO in a light sleepsack, and wrap her arms. It's been working for a few weeks now.
