Hi there! My name is Ilana Cohn and I am a writer and performer living in Los Angeles. I do recommend this product, but I would consult your pediatrician and know that this is a very short-term transition item, and not something they should spend several months sleeping in. And now that he’s 9 months, our baby sleeps primarily in his Halo SleepSack. Once we took him out, he did start rolling onto his stomach to sleep and slept much better in general. She was worried about the padded suit keeping him from rolling over at night, possibly leading to a developmental delay. Our pediatrician recommended switching to a regular sleep sack. I would have moved on to the 6- to 9-month Magic Sleep Suit, but at our baby’s 6-month doctor’s appointment, I mentioned that he was sleeping in the suit and had been for close to six weeks. Its patented design helps transition babies from the swaddle with a cozy and secure sleep environment. This sleep suit deems itself as the “best swaddle transition product on the market today,” which proved to be very accurate in our case. In our house, we lovingly referred to our suit as the marshmallow man suit. During those moments of desperation, we parents have been known to try absolutely anything, including straight up magic. A friend gave it to me during the dreaded 4-month sleep regression, when nothing was working and our baby was up crying and nursing all night long. This sleep sack, if you can even call it that, was not meant to be in our arsenal of test products. The one drawback to the magic suit is that you can’t keep a baby in it forever, so if you’re looking for longevity in a sleep sack, the Halo SleepSack ( available at Amazon) is our Best Value pick. It worked so well that it took us some time to move on to our next sleep sack…a couple of months actually. We tested 10 of the most popular sleep sacks, and found that the Baby Merlin Magic Sleep Suit However, in the beginning, when we were testing swaddles and landed on the Happiest Baby Sleepea Swaddle, we had a tough time testing the rest of them because of how well it worked. Our new baby boy was a better sleeper than our first child, so testing the various sleep sacks was working out nicely. Your baby is also physically growing so rapidly that a sleep sack can be the perfect size for your little one for a good stretch, but then a growth spurt happens and poof!-suddenly that cozy wearable blanket looks more like a straight jacket. And so, you must often change your approach.
In those early months with baby, just when you think you have sleep all figured out…everything changes.
However, there’s no mention of the nights. There’s a saying when it comes to parenthood: The days are long and the years are short.
