but not really a good for covering baby. I regeistered for these based on the name. After I opened them I realized they aren't very big, they're thin, and after a few washes looked cheap. We ended up using them first rolled up in our carrier seat to keep our 4 lb. preemie in place, then as a top sheet in his bed. I now use them as changing pads or play mats while I'm away from home.

I would recommend Carter's receiving blankets because are a little bigger and heavier and held up better after washing.

This blanket set has 1 yellow, 2 green, and 2 white blankets with a very faint print- very disappointing that it pretty much looks white. I only saw them online and thought they would be useful. Although it says they are great for swaddling, don't be fooled- they are hardly big enough or heavy enough to keep a fussy baby snug. They are also extremely lightweight, which I suppose is fine if it is really warm and you just need to keep drafts off the baby. But, that also means they fold up very compact and fit easily in the smallest diaper bag. After 2 months, I have found that I use these blankets as "sneeze guards" over the car seat while shopping, rolled up to help support baby's head in the car seat, and for privacy while nursing. Bottom line is that if you are looking for a blanket to keep the baby warm, or something that looks cute, look elsewhere. But, for $10 you, too, will probably find random uses for these.

These are my one year old daughters favorite blankets she won't go to sleep without at least one of them.(sometimes she likes to sleep with two) They are good for a spring/summer baby as they are lighter than some of the others that I have. They're just big enough to swaddle a newborn. I didn't swaddle my daughter for very long as she was born in May and it gets hot in Virginia in May. She would break out in a heat rash if I swaddled her. The blankets have worn well and I've washed them a lot. On average 2 to 3 times a week. The colored ones have not faded at all. The 2 with the design are faint to begin with they look almost white but there is a cute design on them and they haven't faded either. They are a good quality blanket which haven't faded or pilled . They are smaller than the carters but, they hold up just as well.

My baby loves these blankets. They are good for swaddling a newborn and are warm enough for a spring/ summer baby. My baby won't go to sleep without them. She especially likes the green ones. (I like the pale shade of green too.) If you don't find them suitable you can cut them and use them as burp cloths.

these are rather small for a swaddling blanket, i actually prefer the hospital ones over any. but otherwise make sure they are large, that goes for the hooded towels too.

They are very small and thin. My son was a preemie at 5.13lbs and they wrapped around him with little extra room. I could not see how a full term baby would fit swaddled in these. They are cheap looking but have many other good uses. Like rolled up in the car seat for head support. In the diaper bag for burp clothes/clean up rags. Or a covering for feeding.
Would not recommend if you are looking for a durable blanket.
