4.0 out of 5 stars Happy overall with purchase July 30, 2009

We bought the Miracle Blanket when our son was 3 months old. We had been swaddling him in Halo sleep sack and Kiddopotmus swaddlers until he started to break out of them. He is now 4 months old and we have been using the Miracle blanket for naps and at night, however we are starting to transition him out of swaddling, so he always has one arm free of the swaddler.
Positives:
1) The fabric is lightweight, so it is great to use in warmer weather
2) It is easy to swaddle only the arms, leaving the legs out of the bottom sac
3) When we swaddle our son perfectly, he stays swaddle all night without breaking out of the swaddle.

Negatives:
1) It is hard to perfectly swaddle a squirming baby ;) and if we haven't made sure each arm flap is smooth and covering his entire arm, he often breaks free of the swaddle in the middle of the night.
2) Our son kicks his legs out of the sack almost immediately, now matter how tightly we swaddle him. This isn't a huge issue, but I thought it was worth mentioning

The only other suggestion I would make is to purchase a pattern. We have the green with off white trim and it has a few stains on it from leaking diapers. I think having a pattern would hide these spots better.
Overall I would say this was a good purchase. Considering the cost, I would have bought it sooner than 3 months in order to get more use out of it but having used it for 4 weeks now, I am happy with it.

Our baby was a terrible sleeper until we figured out that we had to swaddle him. Most swaddling blankets are much too small and completely useless. The "ultimate receiving blanket" is much bigger than most and for a while did the trick but pretty quickly the baby outgrew and outmuscled that one too. Then came the baby bonkie, a swaddling sleepsack. It was the best thing ever. Very user friendly and it had our baby sleep through the night instantly. However, that too got too small too soon. Then I found the miracle blanket. It's a little less user friendly than the baby bonkie. It takes a bit more effort to wrap your baby up in this. But it's not hard and you get the hang of it fairly quickly. Our baby is now 25" long and weighs almost 15 lbs and he still fits comfortably in the miracle blanket. I hope this will last until he has outgrown his moro reflexes and can sleep in a regular sleepsack. If not, I guess I'll have to find a way to put together my own miracle blanket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great swaddle blanket! December 27, 2010

We have tried the Swaddle Me, the Swaddle Blanket, and the Miracle Blanket. The ONLY one our daughter AND son did not break out of was the Miracle Blanket ( she is now 5 1/2, he 3 1/2 - they each used it for about 3 months).

ADVANTAGES
* Works differently than others - holds arms at side with two "flaps" that tuck under the body (uses body weight), and then a longer piece wraps around the baby. The end result is a very tight but comfortable looking cocoon that works!
* NO VELCRO - The velcro on the Swaddle Me kept waking our daughter up and sticking to everything in its path.
* Keeps them warm with nothing else required.

DISADVANTAGES
* The part that swaddles the bottom half of the body sometimes come loose - you have to make sure that you wrap the blanket around the lower half o the body REALLY well!
* Nothing else we can think of

We are aware of other blankets on the market, but honestly haven't read a review or heard a testimonial from a friend to change our reco. We still get this as a gift!
