The Miracle Blanket













The very best investment my husband and I made was to buy four miracle blankets before our twins were born and they have come to the rescue for us. They really are very serious when they call it a miracle blanket. If used properly this blanket can bring you and your babies endless nights of sleeping joy. They not only calm your baby when fussy and make them feel secure but help them to sleep better, more soundly, and longer.We bought four of them because we have twins and when one set is dirty we have the other set to use.I have tried other brands of swaddling blankets and was not as happy with them. I just can not say enough good things about miracle blankets.The only thing I would say they could do to improve is make more color options, maybe some cute patterns and larger sizes for larger babies.
They are a good size but I could see them not working too long for a baby that was a 10 pound baby at birth.We swaddled one of our twins with the miracle blankets until 6 months of age. At 8 months our smaller twin still prefers to be swaddled. He fusses if we do not swaddle him for his naps and at bedtime. The moment he gets swaddle he is instantly happy and ready to sleep. If you follow the instructions properly and do understand that at first they will resist just a little but as newborns and it may take you two or three times each time you swaddle them to get it right and get them calm, you will really get great use of thhe miracle blankets. Our twins really have enjoyed the secure feeling the miracle blankets bring them when they sleep.
There is a video available of how to swaddle with a miracle blanket at theit website.

  1. I have to second the notion that swaddling is a great idea! We received swaddle blankets as a shower gift from a mother of TWO sets of twins, and they were the BIGGEST blessing. Especially for my son, who was always a bit more anxious than his more mellow sister. Swaddling would calm him down almost immediately. He would even sleep through the night longer (my twins slept through the night early on) when swaddled than when he wasn't. We also received one of the 'miracle' blankets which worked great for him as well. I highly recommend swaddling as well!
