Here are 3 reasons why swaddling helps:
• 1.Womb feeling
After 9months of being inside a cosy and protective tummy, entering the world is a confusing and often distressing transition for a baby. Whilst they’re trying to understand this new sensation and make sense of the world, they need constant comfort and reassurance, which often comes in the form of replicating the sense of being inside the womb. Swaddling does exactly this by keeping little one securely snuggled through the night, leaving them happy and content.
• 2. Prevents crying
Traditional forms of covering a baby at night time, such as using a blanket, can leave little one waking up uncovered and cold throughout the night, which can lead to prolonged periods of crying. Swaddling is a great technique to keep baby from waking up as it will help them to feel calm, giving you time to yourself at the end of a long day.
• 3. No scratching
Little ones often accidentally scratch their faces whilst sleeping as they’re able to move their arms. One way to prevent this is with sleep suits that have mittens sewn in, but an even better way is to swaddle them. Not only does this make baby feel safe, but with their arms tucked in, they won’t be able to harm themselves.
