 Great Receiving Blankets August 16, 2008
Dana M. Hasse
As a new mother, I discovered many blankets marked "receiving" are so tiny they are only good used as burp cloths. We purchased 3 different blankets by SwaddleDesigns and they are getting a lot of use. My baby was over 9 pounds at birth, and these generously sized blankets have allowed lots of room as he grows quickly. The tag w/ the instructions sewn into the edge is quite handy for family members who come over and want to help with the baby. I highly recommend the SwaddleDesigns Ultimate Receiving in the color of your choice, and as to be expected, the organic cotton is super soft (the non-organic flannel is pretty soft, too).
best swaddler we've used June 22, 2008

We actually have two of these blankets now (blue and red trim) and have given a third (chocolate trim) to a friend who's expecting. These are by far and away the best blankets we have for swaddling. As other reviewers have mentioned, they are big enough to remain useful long after our baby outgrew his other blankets. They are also very soft. We also love the weight of them. Not too heavy. We used them all winter over footed things and sleep-sacks. Now that it's summer, we use them with onesies or just over a diaper. Great that they are organic too!
Soft Flannel Cloud March 11, 2008

We just love this blanket. Received as a gift from our registry, yet we figured we had enough blankets, but it's very different from the rest. Besides being organic cotton, it's very soft, much larger than most receiving blankets, allowing us to swaddle our baby loosely or tightly as needed, or just to wrap her up over her clothes/outerwear for very cold days when we go outside. It's like a soft cloud of flannel around her. Great as a light weight drape over her when we're nursing. I would definitely give this as a gift knowing how much we use ours.
Perfect size and gets softer with each wash! February 11, 2008

Yes, this blamket is a little pricey. But, it is one of the only blankets out there that is actually big enough to use for proper swaddling. Plus, it's really soft and not to heavy for babies to sleep in. Also, it seems to get softer with each wash!
