Right after watching the video, I decided to look into this swaddle and saw how affordable it was and ordered one to try. But the fact that I live in Canada and the crib does not ship to Canada, I held back and started researching some more and someone landed on the YouTube video I mentioned earlier. I read about a really expensive crib and almost ordered it. Every night since his second day, he's been sleeping all day till 12 and would wake at midnight to cry until 4am and sometimes 5am. I was desperate to find something that will help put my son to sleep for longer periods of time. I ordered this after watching a new mommy's YouTube video of her 10 must haves. I would not recommend and would not buy again. Save yourself the money and buy a Halo sleep sack. I wish I hadn’t bought it, it’s incredibly expensive. He would cry so hard he would almost make himself sick. I think it was giving him anxiety (and me). We tried a few nights but I honestly couldn’t watch him struggle so hard to get out anymore. He actually got LESS sleep in the nested bean sack. Also, he must have hated the weight of it because I could get him to fall asleep in this and then he would wake up a few hours later screaming his brains out trying to get out of this sack. Halo has a zipper up from the bottom so you can leave arms swaddled and not totally wake your baby up. First of all if you need to do a diaper change in the middle of the night you have to unswaddle and completely remove. The sack is made of a really nice cotton, very soft. (8 weeks old) He’s already a good sleeper but who doesn’t want an extra few hours if possible so I thought we would give this a try. Let me start by saying I have a baby who loves being swaddled. It is this first had experience that led us to the creation of the Zen Swaddle. Each member of the Nested Bean team has experienced the joys and the challenges, the milestones and the tears that come with raising small children.
