GIVEAWAY - SwaddleDesigns Swaddle Duo! (CLOSED)

SwaddleDesigns, founded by Lynette Damir (a registered nurse and mother of two), focuses on stylish, innovative, modern, durable and quality baby products that help parents comfort and care for their baby.  SwaddleDesigns is an eco-friendly company that uses many domestic fabrics, sustainable fibers, recycled fibers, and recyclable packaging.  In addition, they offer a certified organic collection.  SwaddleDesigns' line offers a wonderful assortment of mixing and matching that coordinates with your baby's style - swaddling blankets, wearable blankets, security blankets, stroller blankets, adult blankets, burp cloths and bibs, baby apparel, towels and washcloths, baby bedding, and baby gift sets.

SwaddleDesigns is proud to announce their Safe Sleep Program that helps educate parents and caregivers by providing the most current information and research to increase awareness of Safe Sleep practices and help reduce risks of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).  The program includes key recommendations from the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) and NIH (National Institute of Health).  I just recently learned from their Safe Sleep Program that in addition to overheating, overchilling is also a risk factor for SIDS.  It is also important to understand that when baby is too cool during sleep that baby will use his or her energy to stay warm instead of spending energy to grow and thrive.  As parents, we must ensure baby is comfortably warm by dressing baby in the appropriate fabric for their environment and touching and feeling baby's chest, back, or tummy.

“The SwaddleDesigns Goldilocks Guide™ ~ baby should not be too hot, or too cold, but just right ~ comfortably warm.”

The Swaddle Duo is a brand new product from SwaddleDesigns with many chic designs to choose from! The Swaddle Duo is a set of two premium, yet different, baby soft swaddling blankets - The Ultimate Receiving Blanket and the Marquisette Swaddling Blanket. The Ultimate Receiving Blanket is a lightweight 42" x 42" 100% premium preshrunk cotton flannel blanket appropriate for moderate to cooler environmental temperatures and the Marquisette Swaddling Blanket is a very lightweight 46" x 46" 100% openweave cotton marquisette blanket appropriate for warmer environmental temperatures. Each blanket features their exclusive 1-2-3 Swaddle instructional tag sewn to the edge (patent pending). You may also learn How to Swaddle on their website with additional valuable information on sleeping environment and benefits of swaddling.

I love how the Swaddle Duo blankets are generously sized!  It's versatile in ways that can be used for swaddling, tummy time, privacy throw, teething object, and covering the stroller to protect from a cool breeze or the bright sun.  Since Baby Hsu is a "big boy" now, I swaddle him with his arms out to keep his tummy warm while sleeping.  He loves to spread his arms straight out when he's sleeping (as you can tell from the photo).  Another one of my favorite product from SwaddleDesigns is their Fitted Crib Sheet, which you may read all about it from my previous review (here).  SwaddleDesigns Swaddle Duo makes a thoughtful gift for parents to enjoy two different swaddling blankets to keep their baby comfortably warm!
