How to Swaddle...
STEP 1
Start with a swaddle blanket in a diamond position. Fold the top corner down to create a triangle. Place your baby in the middle of the blanket with their arms at their sides, shoulders below the top of the blanket and head slightly above the top of the blanket.
STEP 2
Starting with one side, place your baby's arm relaxed but slightly bent next to their body. Bring one side of the blanket across their chest and tuck it securely under their body - snug but not too tight.
STEP 3
Bring the bottom of the blanket over the feet. Once again, you want it snug but not too tight. You want to follow for freedom of slight hip and leg movement.
STEP 4
Tuck the other arm like the first and bring the opposite side of the blanket over the body. Wrap the excess blanket snuggly around the body and tuck it into the creases of your swaddle creating a firm hold.
