Anyone use one of these? Thoughts?
It's a weighted swaddle that is supposed to help sooth by providing pressure that mimics the sensation of touch. http://nestedbean.com/

Is try it if I was expecting. How much is it?

@TurtleDoves: Like $40 on amazon. We had such sleep issues with DS that we are thinking about trying it for this one.

Wow...hmm...
LO slept fine with the Summer swaddled and/or A&A, so at $40, maybe I wouldn't try it?
Looks really cool though -
I bought one. It is a beautiful swaddle - cute design and good quality fabric. The weighted part is really secure and padded. The downside is the fabric is so stretchy that my LO got out of it within seconds. A friend with a baby 10 weeks younger than mine borrowed it and same thing - her baby's arms were out in seconds.
I tried the Swaddle Me, Halo Swaddlers, Zen Swaddle, and Swaddle Strap. The only one that was Houdini-proof was the Swaddle Strap. Is your baby breaking out of swaddles or just waking up? If it is the latter maybe the weights will help. If you are interested I could sell you ours.

@Richelle: This would be for my baby due in November. DS is 2 and still a horrid sleeper. We used SwaddleMe's briefly, but I hated them as he could get right out of them from day one. We had better luck swaddling with an A&A and later using their sleep sacs. I thought maybe this one might be good because he loved/needed to be held/touched all the time.

@ Anbanan15: Oh whoops, I missed where you said you were thinking of trying it for the new LO. (I no read so gud since bebe
)First congrats on your Thanksgiving baby. I wish you a stress free and ache free third trimester.
I also thought the zen was a great solution since my LO would wake up the minute he was put down. I ordered it at 3 am and paid for one day shipping. Momma was tired. But he has been a swaddle breaker since birth and this one was a cake walk for him. Maybe if the new LO is mellow it could work.

@Richelle: Thanks! Besides LO being able to break out easily, do you think the weighted areas helped soothe at all? That's the part that has me interested the most
