Product Information

The weight in the suit seems perfect for my son and it clearly helps him to relax more and fall faster asleep and sleep longer periods. Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centres that host Etsy. Unlike a swaddle, a sleep sack is worn like a piece of clothing that zips up; it keeps your baby’s arms free while covering their torso, legs, and feet like a blanket.

Gentle weight is located on the front (or top) of the sack only and will not restrict movement, so your baby can safely roll, sit or stand. Ashley Olson is a certified pediatric sleep consultant, owner of Heaven Sent Sleep and The Collective for Family Rest and Wellness, and is passionate about helping new parents, experienced parents, and desperate and sleep-deprived parents form healthy sleep habits for their children. If you’re looking at sleep sacks and trying to choose between the lemon, stripes, or cloud patterns, we can’t help you there (they’re all pretty adorable). Our products are helping a lot of babies and parents," Manasi Gangan, founder and president of the infant sleepwear company Nested Bean, told NPR.But covering a baby with a blanket at bedtime is not safe, which leaves some parents wondering if a weighted sleep sack is a safe alternative. Swaddles, that restrict the movement of babies’ arms and legs, should be discontinued the moment babies show signs of attempting to roll over independently (around 2 months of age).

Moon is chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics' task force on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), which last year said weighted swaddles are "not safe" and recommended against using them and other weighted infant sleep products. The sack features our exclusive CoverCalm® Technology, evenly distributed weight from your baby’s shoulders to toes to naturally reduce stress and give your baby the feeling of security and comfort - just like a hug.The practical two-way zip makes it especially easy to put your baby in or take them out of the sleeping bag, and changing nappies is also easy (even at night).
