love to swaddle up...layer on merino- a review.



Despite her expression, Poppy was truly pleased with her sleep gear. How bout that hair?!

I am a huge fan of Love TDream’s Love To Swaddle UP. It keeps bubba cozy and allows them to access their hands to help soothe and calm them. It helps ward off the startle reflex and keep bub calm and centred. The problem is that in a cold and wet place layering blankets on top of a swaddle is annoying. Cue the clever folks at Love To Dream who came up with a sweet and natural solution. The Love To Layer ON Merino.

I was given a Love To Layer ON Merino to review. Poppy is 5 months and technically no longer needs to be swaddled but she still startles between sleep cycles and is more content when wrapped. Designed in line with Sids and Kids, this extra layer is made from soft merino wool. It is less bulky than blankets and breathes better helping regulate her temperature. It zips up easily over the swaddle she is so used to. 

There is a clever guide on the back to help decide what to wear under the swaddle and layer on and three sizes to follow your little one to 11 kgs (6 months).

The first nap with this lovely addition saw her sleep for nearly two hours {unheard of around these parts}. Merino is said to help your baby sleep better for longer. What a blessing that this was the case for us! 

The Love To Layer ON™ Merino is available in Small, Medium and Large to fit perfectly over the Love To Swaddle UP range. It comes in Grey and is sold for RRP $59.95.
