Burrito Baby

We had great luck with Kale sleeping...in the beginning. For the past 3 weeks, nights have been horrific. Literally there might have been 2 stints when Kale slept for an hour and a half each night. Aside from that, he would pretty much wake every time we laid him down. Out of desperation and exhaustion, he was in our bed for a few hours each night which we are 100% against. We now have him on a special formula and medication for acid reflux but the thing that has made the biggest difference is the miracle blanket. I am not one to endorse products on our blog, however if you have an infant or are preggers I would highly recommend picking one up. We started using it on Saturday night and for the last 3 nights, our child is back to the same schedule he was on the first 2 weeks of life. A feeding at 2:30 or 3am and again about 3 hours later.

Here is Kale in his miracle blanket...wrapped up and snuggly just like a burrito! And for those of you that know me well, it made me claustrophobic just to wrap him in this!

We received a Miracle Blanket as a gift when we had Ellie.... it was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! She got to the point that she would immediately calm down when we would start to wrap her in it!

Just saw your comment on my blog.... I couldn't remember if I had told you about the Miracle Blanket awhile back or not. I had mentioned it to three different moms of newborns (or who were pregnant) within a week and wasn't sure if you were one of them! SO thankful that it has been a lifesaver for you, too!
