There are different products offered by Nested Bean – we didn’t need it all yet, but it’s available for those who do, like a sleeper, a convertible swaddle, sleep sacks, and swaddles.ĩ. Most of the time, she wears a long sleeve shirt.Ĩ. We can put anything under her sleep sack or swaddle, depending on the temperature and what she feels most comfortable in. With the swaddle and sleep sacks, there is room around the waist and legs for the baby’s legs and hips to move around, to prevent hip dysplasia that may occur when swaddling is too tight around the hips.ħ. There is a variety of designs, so we are able to switch a different design every day!Ħ. We have only used the cotton (1.0 TOG) and bamboo premier ones (0.5 TOG), and we like it!ĥ. It can go from 0.5 TOG for the summer to 2.5 TOG for the winter. There are different fabric material and thickness of swaddles and sleep sacks.

I divided it into two lists so you will get the full honest picture when you make your purchase decision. I wanted to share a bit from our experience using the Nested Bean products. We, though, do not use any added weight in our blankets. They believe that weighted blankets help them sleep better. We were first introduced to the swaddles when they were given to us by my parents-in-law. This little egg provides a tiny bit of weight, like a hand, pressing down on their chest or back (only for babies that can rollover), presumably allowing them to sleep better. The Nested Bean products have a little egg shape that is chest level to the baby. I’m sure you all have seen before the Nested Bean products and wondered about this line of items.
