The Ollie Swaddle – Sleep Swaddle for Babies | Breathable, Moisture-Wicking Fabric to Prevent Overheating | Soft, Adjustable Fit | Ideal for Newborns & Infants (Lavender)

This is our favorite swaddle! Initially loved the halo but the stretchy fabric had my baby fighting it and trying to get out ultimately getting her frustrated. We switched to Ollie and she is sleeping great only wakes once a night now starting around 1.5-2 months old!

I could sit and rave about this. I was so hesitant to buy, because the price is pretty up there, but man if it hadn't been the best investment. We tried the Happiest Baby swaddles, and the Love to Dream swaddle, and I would absolutely choose this one over those. My baby does just okay in both the others - but she breaks her arms out of the Happiest Baby swaddles, and while my baby seems to like having her arms up with the Love to Dream, it doesn't prevent her startle reflex and so she doesn't sleep long stretches in it. It also doesn't soothe her much and it takes her a long time to get to sleep in that one.But then, enter the Ollie. My expectations were all over the place. I was hopeful that my baby couldn't break out of it, but I really didn't think it would be different enough to actually make a difference. But there are quite a few things I love about it. It is more of a full body type swaddle compared to the Happiest Baby one. The happiest baby one is really just a strip to hold just the arms down and so it makes it way too easy to break out of. Plus, I think the full body effect of this one ends up being soothing. Just as a note though, the Ollie is a full body swaddle, but does still allow for good movement in the legs and hips!I also love that this is far from my baby's face. Almost every other swaddle seems to get close to my baby's mouth and I have to modify them to keep them away, or I just stress about it. The tie at the bottom of this will prevent it from riding up (you must tie it right below baby's feet). But I actually feel like this is secure enough it doesn't really ride up at all anyway. But I like having that extra assurance the it can't do that in the night.This is also Soo easy to use. When I used the Happiest Baby swaddles I felt like I was always fighting to get it lined up just right to give the best chance of keeping my baby's arms swaddles. The majority of the time it still wouldnt be enough. With this one, I feel it is so easy to use (go watch their short video on YouTube), and I feel I can pull it snuggly but somehow it still gives my baby so much space in the chest area (use the finger test to make sure it's not too tight). My baby has not broken out of this. She also immediately slept her longest stretch ever at night, and that was on night one! I wish I'd found this sooner, as it's truly made a huge difference for us. I've been very pleasantly surprised. It's like there's magic in the fibers or something! Really love and highly recommend this.

GAME CHANGER!!!! I rarely write reviews, but as a sleep-deprived father, this product was worth the cost. Our baby can finally lay down on his bassinet without getting fussy every 5-10 minutes.

It is the perfect swaddle and just what my husband and I needed for our little baby girl. We tried swaddling with just a swaddle blanket for the first week of her life, but she always either broke out of it or was still startling awake. I heard such good things about the Ollie swaddle but thought how good can it be for the price you're paying for. We decided to just go for it and it was THE BEST DECISION EVER! Our baby started sleeping so much better afterwards and it is quite easy to use as well. She is nearing 3 months so I am not sure how much longer she will need it once she starts rolling, but I like that it will probably be an easier transition out of it since we can still use it with her arms remaining free. We bought other velcro swaddles which do not work as well, but we still use them during the day and the Ollie at night and she has been sleeping for 6-9 hours at night. I will say one of the cons (when comparing to other velcro swaddles) is that the velcro is very loud, but that is no issue for us because when we need to remove her from the swaddle we (most of the time) are trying to wake her up to feed her during the day anyways. Sometimes at night when she wakes with the Ollie and we want to check if she needs a diaper change, we just undo the rubber band part and check that way so that we don't need to wake her even more with the velcro sounds.PROS:- easy to use- does not awake from moro reflex- will be easy transition out of it since can be used with arms free when baby starts rollingCONS:- velcro is louder than others

Game changer! My husband and I tried 5 different swaddles prior to this and they just did not work and we were DESPERATE! We would get a max of 4 hours, first night our baby girl gave us 8 hours!! YES, 8 HOURS! Thankkkkk you!

Our baby hated being swaddled and the Velcro seemed so loud! It always woke her up. But it was very soft and lightweight.

The Ollie swaddle is by far the best swaddle. It is easy to use and your little one cannot break out. This is the only swaddle we used after finding it at about 8 weeks.
