HALO SleepSack, Micro-Fleece Wearable Blanket, Swaddle Transition Sleeping Bag, TOG 1.0

Both of my babies hated being swaddled. This is a perfect solution for a sleeping baby. We use long or short sleeve onesies (or side snap shirts when newborn) and the halo sleep sack over it. It also comes in cotton fabric which is great when the weather is warmer. The halo sleep sack it the best out of the bunch because:The zipper zips from the top down to the feet. It makes nighttime diaper changes much easier because you don't have to fully unzip it to get to the diaper. This means it's easier to change baby without a light on and baby doesn't fully wake up. It also means,no fiddling in the middle of the night with tired, sleepy hands trying to get the zipper to line back up.The zipper is a good quality. We own 3 in each size. They have been used for 2 kids. The zipper never gets stuck and is always easy to put together. A must with squirmy babies.Durable. They have made it through 2 children using 3 in each size in a heavy rotation and they still would be useful for another child.They are safe to sleep in, warm and comfy. These are a very useful baby item!

I personally think these sleep sacks are great. I bought this one for my sister-in-law who is expecting their third child. I have two of these for my daughter. She sleeps very comfortably in them. I do not worry that she will get tangled in her blanket. I do not worry that she will kick her covers off and catch a chill. also, as an added benefit, the sack has extended our time in the crib. My daughter is not yet ready for a toddler bed, from which she could wander at night while we are sleeping. However, my daughter has reached the stage where most children begin to hoist themselves over the sides of their cribs. The sack has prevented her from being able to get her legs over the sides of her crib and therefore is probably the only thing keeping us from having to move her to a toddler bed at this time.Drawbacks I see are few, but: I do wish there was some sort of locking mechanism on the zipper, as I see that she is now beginning to fiddle with it and will undoubtedly soon unravel the mystery. At that point, I believe she will start unzipping the thing and begin coming out of it when I am not watching her. Also, I have had some difficulty choosing the correct size sack for her. For example, I recently purchased the new sack that has holes for the feet to fit through, as she is now walking. I chose to purchase the new sack because I am concerned that she will try to walk around her crib in the old sack and trip. I realized, of course, that in a sack with holes for her feet she would then be able to crawl out of the crib, but I am so pleased with these that I decided to keep going with them rather than move to a blanket. I bought the "Large Size" which is the same size she is now wearing, but the product was too long. I am still waiting for her to grow into it. Admittedly, my daughter is short for her age and so perhaps this is not a problem many others would encounter. Lastly, the sacks are a little expensive.Overall, I would recommend them. Peace of mind has been my greatest reward in using them. Before I began using these I was constantly up in the night checking to make sure she was not too hot or too cold. If I dressed her warmly for bed (winter gown and socks) I usually found she was too hot, even sweating. That can be as dangerous as having a blanket wrapped around the head. If I took some of the clothing off, I felt she was too cool. Adjusting the temperature in the room never seemed to solve the problem either. And of course, if I did resort to a blanket, she invariably ended up either kicking the thing off or worse, she ended up with it over her face. These sacks have eliminated all of these problems and even aided in other areas I had not foreseen. I highly recommend them.

I bought the halo sleep sacks because they were heavily recommended to me by doctors and friends. I love it because not only does it keep my baby cozy warm and safe, but it is super convenient for me.My son goes in the sleep sack with a onsie on. This makes diaper changes a breeze in the middle of the night. Baby stays nice and sleepy which makes it easier to go back to bed.They also hold up nice in the wash. Love the halo sleep sack.

My LO is a wiggly sleeper - there is no way any blanket would stay on her through the night (I know you're not supposed to use blankets...) She stays nice and warm with these HALO blanket - and they are nice and wide at the bottom for her to kick her legs around however she pleases. They zip up from the bottom, so you can change the diaper without taking the whole thing off. The sizing seems to be pretty true, my LO is 5 months 25 inches long and the small size fits well with some room to grow.

I bought this for my 6 month old son, we had the cotton one for the summer but with the weather getting cool I wanted something warmer.I think these sleep sacks are such a great idea. When my 5 year old was a baby I was always concerned that her room was too cold so I would put a space heater in there, this always made me uncomfortable but I didn't know what else to do. I don't know if these sleep sacks were available then, if they were I didn't know about them. I am so happy to have found them now, I just put him in warm jammies and then put him in this and he sleeps great. There is enough room for him to be able to move his legs freely so he isn't restrained at all. The zipper even opens from the bottom to make middle of the night diaper changes much easier.
