Swaddle Up Lite Newborn 5-8.5lb - Olive

A lighter version of the award-winning zip-up swaddle that allows baby to sleep in a more natural ARMS UP™ position. Patented design promotes self-soothing by giving baby access to their hands. When you place your baby to sleep on their back, their natural position is for their arms to go up. The Love to Dream Swaddle UP Original features a patented design that allows you to swaddle your baby with their arms up in this more natural position. The medical reason behind baby's desire to have access to their hands is that when they wake up at night, they want to self-soothe, which is simply stroking their cheeks or sucking on their hands. If they are swaddled with their arms restricted, they cannot do this, which causes them to wake, get frustrated, and try to get out of traditional swaddles.
