I must admit that in the past I haven’t had the best luck with products containing “miracle” in their name. However, this blanket is the shining exception!
Our son was a very big boy — 10 lb, 6 oz of joy. We had read Harvey Karp’s “The Happiest Baby on the Block” (highly recommended) and we knew we wanted to swaddle him. We had planned to use a receiving blanket, but we quickly found out that none of them were remotely big enough. Not even close. We spent a ton of money buying bigger blankets, and we tried two other expensive swaddling blankets as well. Nothing worked, nothing held the baby, and all three of us were desperate to get some sleep. We even bought a cheap sheet set and tore it up to get some bigger patches of cloth. No dice.
Finally, I ordered this blanket online (Amazon didn’t carry it at the time, alas.) BINGO — our son slept through the night at once! Yes! We had to wake him from a sound, swaddled sleep to change and feed him; he went back down like a rock as soon as we re-swaddled him. He loved this blanket. When he saw us coming with it, he’d try to lie quietly with his arms in his sides in anticipation of the (very simple) process of swaddling him up. And I loved the fact that this blanket was so soft and comforting and had no snaps or any other fasteners that could rub him.
I should mention that the two new parents I gave this to as a shower gift were pathetically grateful, and couldn’t stop gushing. I understand; for a new parent, anything that grants you sleep is your favorite thing in the world.
A note to parents considering this blanket: Be prepared for some of your friends (especially the childless ones) to recoil in horror at the thought of swaddling. “You’re tying your baby up?” “What if he suffocates?” “But he won’t be able to move! It’s cruel!”, etc., etc. These people probably mean well, but their comments are very ignorant. The fact is, your baby has just spent months in the most confined space imaginable — a womb where he could barely budge at all. And new parents will immediately notice that newborn babies have virtually no control over their newly freed arms — they’ll startle themselves from sleep time and again, then start flailing their hands around and scratching their faces raw. Newborns don’t have the neurological control to stop themselves from flailing, so they love it when you return them to the safe, warm, familiar confinement they remember from the womb.
Another comment you’ll hear from some people is, “How do you know when the baby doesn’t need to be swaddled any more?” Easy. They start to wriggle out of the swaddling. They may not be able to talk, but they’ll let you know clearly when they’re ready to move on.

Our son has an especially strong startle reflex, and has to be swaddled to sleep, at all. At 2.5 weeks, he startled being able to get out of any swaddle we did, no matter how expertly done, no matter what blanket we used. So, at 1 hour of sleep, he’d start crying and we’d have to go in and start all over. We searched online for actual “Swaddling” blankets and based on reviews, chose this one. WHAT AN UTTER MIRACLE. We are in such debt to the dad who created this! Our son is now 12 weeks old, and we use this for each nap and for nighttime sleep. He was sleeping 6-7 hour stretches at 5 weeks, and slept 11 hours at 8 weeks. We would never have this success without this blanket. We’ve periodically tried to get him to sleep without it, but his reflex is STILL so strong that he needs it. It took a little “getting used to” the method to get him wrapped up, but in no time we both were experts. And the price on Amazon, with free shipping, is way better than what we paid directly through AMB. I wholeheartedly reccommend this to all parents, especially new parents.

We received the miracle blanket as a gift when our daughter was 4 weeks old. After trying the swaddle me to keep her asleep for longer periods and having no success, we were delighted that the miracle blanket worked so well. Within 10 days, she was sleeping through the night! I strongly recommend this product.

I bought this when I was pregnat with my second baby. I love it. It keeps him securely wrapped all night. My only complaint is that it is not designed for larger babies. My son was 10# at birth and he fit in it perfectly. Now at 2mo he is 15.5# and over 25in and the blanket is getting a little small for him. We still use it every night, he just sticks out of the top a little more, and I tuck in the tail at his back instead of in front.

What sets this blanket apart is the design. By cutting the fabric in a special triangular shape, the company has to use a nearly six feet wide piece of fabric and cut the material on a 45 degree angle to provide just the right amount of stretch. When you view the product on the company website or elsewhere, you’ll notice that it has two small pieces of fabric for the arms and a sack-like compartment at the bottom. To use, you slide the baby into the sack area and loop the cloth strips around the arm and behind the back of the baby. This process secures the baby’s arms and legs inside the blanket. Next, you will wrap the right side of the blanket across the baby, pulling it snugly to the left. After that, you will have to take the longer right side and wrap it to the left, around the back. This forms a cocoon or mummy-like enclosure around the baby. The only part that is uncovered is the head.
The reason this blanket is useful is because it actually calms and soothes the baby. Being snug and secure helps control rampant crying, restlessness, etc. Don’t be discouraged if your baby cries and seems uncomfortable at first. After about 5 or 10 minutes, I noticed a huge difference and our little girl settled down significantly. Now, she seems to actually look forward to being put into the blanket.
Although this is an expensive blanket, it is superior to its competitors because the baby cannot squirm out of it (possibly creating a suffocation risk) and it swaddles better than the competing options. Also, after many washes, the fabric remains in excellent condition. I would put this on the top of your shopping list or baby registry.
