Baby Merlin's Microfleece Baby Swaddle Transition Product

This item was an absolute lifesaver for us as we made the switch from swaddle to sleep sack. My daughter was addicted to her swaddle the first few months and would absolutely freak out if she wasn’t in it. As she started to get bigger, it became clear she would soon be rolling and needed to get out of the swaddle. We put her in the sleep suit as soon as she was big enough and kept her in it until it was tight (she’s really tall, so it was too short before it was too small in width). The first night she slept in it, she slept 11 hours straight. It kept her warm and cozy in the winter months. I debated getting another when it was tight but it’s not safe for babies that can roll, so we went ahead and made the transition to sleep sacks at that point. I think this suit really helped with the transition and kind of decreasing nighttime movement although she rolls and moves around so much now in her sleep sack. Anyway, I highly recommend this for the transition.

This is amazing!!! This has helped my baby sleep through the night and not have any wake ups! It’s not weighted it’s just a fluffy suit. My baby does so well with his! Great quality

Here's are sleep story thus far. Our son was good at many things but sleep was not one of them. In his first few months he was often up all night. No, I do not mean multiple wakings, I mean basically one or two wake-ups and then he couldn't get him back to sleep as hard as we tried. Some night he slept only 1.5 hours total. We tried all sorts of things, some things worked a little. Swaddling sort of seemed to work a little maybe but it was hard to tell because even as a newborn he would break out of his velcro swaddles. Then our postpartum doula introduced us to the Miracle Blanket swaddle. That was harder to break out of and our son liked it better. Around 3 or 4 months he started sleeping in 1-2 hours stretches because of the swaddle which was a huge improvement. But still, being up every 1-2 hours isn't great in the whole scheme of things, right? Just before our son turned 6 months we started feeding him solid food and he started sleeping way better and things were looking up, food + swaddle was a winning combination but we had a problem: SWADDLE ADDICTION. He could not sleep AT ALL without the swaddle. Why was this a problem? Several reasons. First, I was very scared he's roll on his belly while swaddled and get stuck. Because of my fear of this we got a video monitor, but it still sort of gave me anxiety every night (even though he never actually did this). Also, he sort of had a love/hate relationship with the swaddle. He needed it to fall asleep but sometimes I felt like it was interfering with his ability to resettle himself when he woke. Also, since our son has eczema and you can't itch yourself when you are swaddled it seemed uncomfortable at times. Imagine how maddening that would be, to have an itch and be wrapped up! And no, there was no way to unswaddle him after he fell asleep without waking him. We tried one arm out many times as a transition, but no luck, we were in a bind. Until we met the Magic Sleep Suit. It works like a charm. Our son loved it from the start. He feels cozy but isn't wrapped up so he can re-position himself to resettle or scratch an itch. At 8.5 months sleeps totally through the night (9pm - 7:15am) on maybe 50% of nights! We put him in naked with just a diaper and overheating has not been a problem. It's AMAZING. I can relax at night knowing he's safe and he won't be stuck if he rolls. I don't feel horrible that he might have an itch he can't get at. He's so happy to get in it every night, he does this cute little cozy wiggle as we zip him up. My husband and I look at each other all the time and say, "wow, I can't believe we made it past the swaddle!" I had no idea how we were going to get him past the swaddle. The sleep suit is very nicely designed. With 2 zippers it's easy in and easy out. Much easier than many swaddles.

A REAL REVIEW from a first time mom. This thing is amazing. It helped my daughter transition out of a swaddle with ease. She loved it. It definitely helped us get some sleep too. I will be saving it for my next baby. Also to get baby out of this and into a sleep sack.. start with naps first to get them use to it for like a week! We did that and it worked great.

Seriously this was so worth the money! I read a lot of the positive reviews and hoped I would have a similar experience. My 4 month old hasn't been napping well because I no longer swaddle him in the day. He named 30 minutes almost to the minute and would startle and wake. He would wake tired and grumpy and it was horrible as he wouldn't want to be left in the crib to re-fall asleep. My friend told me about this suit as a transition from swaddling. I was so willing to try even though the price didn't make my husband happy. I told him $40 for my sanity was a small price to pay. The package arrived after my sons morning nap (of 30 minutes). I put him in the suit for his next nap. Of course he was adorable in this big suit, like man other reviews said. I couldn't help but smile. He napped for 3 hours!!!!! 3 hours!! Right there is was worth the money. his 3rd nap of the day he slept for 60 minutes! That night was the first night we ever let him sleep unsaddled. The night was horrible. My son could still reach his hands well to try and comfort himself. It was a disaster. I'm blaming a good part of that to his pacifier issues as well - although with a swaddle they weren't as bad. The second night was a complete turn around!! He slept the night waking once to nurse and then waking at his normal time in the morning!!! It was the second night he was out of our room. I'm sold and so happy for this suit. It's not a complete fix all, but I'd say 90% of a fixer! My son is 4 months old and 1 week. He is less than 2% in height and 25% in weight. So small. The suit fits him sell. The collar goes down nice and low as to not disturb the neck from moving and getting into the babies mouth. the arms and legs are open. I was thinking I would put socks on my son, but his feet actually don't even stick out! The arms are perfect going down to his wrists, but shortening when he brings his hands to his mouth. The fleece is very soft and great quality. I haven't washed it yet so not sure if that will change? Already after 2 days my son seems to realize as I put him in this suit he's getting ready to sleep. Kind of like starting to swaddle a baby, they know and start to calm down and relax a bit. The suit is not ridged. I worried the suit would be stiff, but it's not. It might be the warmth and weigh on the child that helps? Whatever it is it works. Not restrictive if you're worried about that. I'm able to put my son in this and nurse him and stick him in bed.

I bought this for my granddaughter. This is my daughter’s review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ TOTAL. GAME. CHANGER. We cannot say enough good things about the Magic Sleepsuit. It has been an absolute lifesaver in our house. Our baby went from fighting sleep and waking herself up constantly to falling asleep faster and staying asleep longer — and that’s priceless. The gentle, cozy structure of the suit helps calm her little startle reflex without restricting her, and she looks so comfortable and snug in it. Bedtime has become so much smoother, and naps are more consistent too. It truly gives her that secure, “held” feeling while still being safe for independent sleep. Within just a few nights, we noticed a big difference. She settles quicker, sleeps more soundly, and wakes up happier. As new parents, getting longer stretches of sleep has made such a difference for our whole family. If you’re on the fence — get it. We wish we had started sooner. Absolute 10/10. 💛

My 10 week old loves this sleepsuit and been sleeping like a champ! I bought a second to have backup in case she has accidents and my one complaint would be that the material and size is completely different from one color to the next! The yellow is huge on her and a towel like material while the pink fits her perfectly and feels like cotton! One says made in India and the other china. Overall great experience but if you like your suit and want to order another I would get the same exact one :) also don’t forget these suits are super warm so you want the room at 68ish - we have her only in her diaper too!

Our 4-month old went from crying every hour to sleeping for hours once we switched to this sleep suit! He LOVED being swaddled, but once he started rolling, I switched him to a sleep sack. We went through the worst few nights of his life. He would NOT sleep without the swaddle. I was desperate. I tried other types of sleepers, not none did the trick. Until this one. From night 1, there has been a huge improvement in his sleep. He’s even slept through the night a couple times! He’s now 6.5 months, and it’s still the only way he will sleep at night. He’s knows his routine and won’t fall asleep without the magic sleep suit. It’s been worth every penny several times over!
