You could slow it down by doing one at a time but we thought that our LG would just fidget even more. I've only heard great things about Gro Snug so may well have an Xmas pressie all sorted now – thank you! The fact that you can unzip the arms meant I could use it during the particularly hot weather without worrying she would get too hot. G is approaching 10lbs and as he now seems to be growing at a rapid pace he will probably have outgrown his in a couple of weeks. Although I received my first Gro-Snug for testing purposes to review, within a few days I had gone straight out and purchase a few more myself as there is no way I would be without this Sleeping bag for my little one until he is old enough to use a normal sleeping bag.

Due to my baby having reflux and often being sick during the night, the bag has been washed several times and the material has maintained its good quality (no fading or bobbling) and it dries very quickly. She seemed to prefer the comfort of being tightly wrapped in her blankets, perhaps because it reminded her of being in the womb!The Gro Snug is designed to be wider on the bottom half so that baby has room to move their legs but is tighter across the chest. We had expected a big baby so had bought gro bags ready for her, obviously that wasn’t happening yet. Helen: I don’t know if this is possible but I would change this product by having a zip on a section at the bottom so that one item will last longer than the first couple of months so it could be extendable to last till the baby is six months old for example. Seller has stated it will dispatch the item within 1 working day upon receipt of cleared payment - opens in a new window or tab . Unique seams on the front give ample space for a natural froggy legged sleeping position while poppers on the armholes allow for swaddling with arms in or arms out for the freedom of a newborn Grobag.

Until you try it out with your new baby, you can never tell if they like to be swaddled or not so it means you have the option for both - or can swap from one to the other in a few seconds to meet baby's needs. It zips from the top down to the bottom meaning that nappy changes can be made easily without having to take your baby completely out of the bag. They are proud that right from the start the company worked closely with the safe sleep charity the Lullaby Trust, and so safety and quality has always been important in what they do.I bought a love to dream swaddle thinking this might help as it's less restrictive than the grosnug, but had a terrible night in it.

I'm happy to use cellular blankets until then but not sure if swaddling at night is a faff when having to change? One of the biggest positives I found during our Grosnug review, is that its design still ensures that nappy changes aren’t a challenge, even in a dimly lit room. This is what makes the Gro Snug such a great bag because instead of having to put it in the cupboards along with the other things that baby doesn’t like I could just undo the poppers and make it into a sleeping bag with G’s arms free. The Gro Snug helped to lessen this worry as on warmer nights a short sleeved bodysuit can be worn underneath and you can layer up with sleep suits for when it is cooler.This is one product that I have no hesitation in recommending time and time again now, as it worked for me and my child and gave me the peace of mind every Mama needs with a newborn. Made from soft and stretchy cotton, the Grosnug is available in two different weights - light (for rooms 21-25 degrees Celsius) and cosy (for rooms 16-20 degrees Celsius). When you are preparing for a baby it is easy to be dazzled by the latest must-have item, only to find you use it once and it ends up in the back of the cupboard. Additionally, when the baby is swaddled it also helps to prevent them from flailing their arms or her legs, which can trigger her startle reflex. I do tend to take her arms out towards the end of the night anyway as she normally ends the night in my bed, so I might just try doing it earlier.
