Baby Merlin's Magic Sleepsuit - Swaddle Transition Product - Cotton - Blue - 6-9 Months

I read the top “most helpful” review here and it sounded just like my son. So I’ll provide background for parents who are looking through these comments to see whether it would actually work for their baby.My son loved to be swaddled and had been swaddled for 4 months straight. He was a great sleeper, sleeping some nights 9-10 hours straight at a very young age. It was never always 9-10 hours but we would get those nights a lot. At the start of the fourth month we noticed he would start to get angry and frustrated that he couldn’t get his arms out of his swaddles. Sometimes he would succeed and wiggling his arms out and immediately would pull them to his face and rub or scratch his face and wake up crying or as soon as he started falling asleep his arm falling to his side would wake him up. We couldn’t swaddle him much longer because he was getting so big and starting to attempt to arch his back and almost turn on his side out of his frustration to get his arms out.At the end of month 4, we started to do the one arm in one arm one method and it didn’t really work for us. He would usually sleep one 5-6 hour stretch. Again, he’d be angry he had one arm swaddled and would fixate on trying to get it out and get angry he couldn’t. We then tried going cold turkey for a week and we were miserable. It felt like the newborn days again, constant crying and waking every 2-3 hours. I desperately looked online for a solution because we 1) couldn’t swaddle his arms down anymore 2) couldn’t leave his arms out or he’d scratch a and rub his face and wake up or his arm falling to his side would wake him up 3) we couldn’t have his arms able to freely move within (arms up position) because he have never slept like that before and hated it and criedI found this sleep suit and that comment and saw all the similarities and I ordered it after 3 nights of constant 2-3 hour wakings and the brink of insanity. When I received it and put it in him obviously he looked adorable but yes my son runs hot and I had read all the concerns about overheating. We keep our house cold year round so we decided to go a few degrees colder and set the temp (it’s June) to 68°. I put socks on his feet to keep his feet warm, only put on a undershirt onsie for him and tried it out.I couldn’t believe it! HE SLEPT 10 HOURS. I could not believe it I definitely thought it wa as one night fluke. He did awake twice during the night and cried but as soon as I would walk over to the kitchen grab his bottle and come back ( about 2 minutes) he’d be fast asleep again. I also felt him in the morning when I woke up, his body was not overly hot, it felt like a nice warm temperature along with his feet. His hands were freezing though but I had read maybe it’s okay? This morning as I write this is night #2 - the true test in my opinion. I put him to bed at 9:30 and it’s 7:45 now and he’s still sleeping. So yes, I do believe in magic lol. I’m so grateful for this suit. We needed sleep and he did too. Even if your baby is bigger (5 months) just try it out! But please make sure to keep your house cold for hot little ones!

This sleepsuit is exactly what we needed! We were using the halo swaddle which was great until my son outgrew it and was no longer comfortable being swaddled. We needed s transition product to keep his startle reflex from waking him. This is the perfect solution. It's easy to get him in and out of, it is great quality soft material that feels like sleeping in a comforter. It's washable which is always a plus and the zippers are great quality and don't poke baby thanks to the neck design. The large fits my 15 pound 4 month old perfectly. Im so thankful for this product!

We were lucky enough that our baby was ok with the sleepsuit. We were worried after we read that some babies had a rough time with it. In regards to quality of sleep, we can definitely tell that the baby was more comfortable during the night than without the sleepsuit. It's not a miracle worker by any means, but we did have less wakings during the night.Our baby used this for about a month or so, before realizing that he was ready to be transitioned out. We did not experience any difficulty transitioning out of the sleepsuit, which was another worry for us. We started by keeping the sleepsuit on during the night, and off during naps, and eventually he was fully transitioned.I would definitely recommend this sleepsuit to anyone to is on the fence about getting one. Even though results may vary, we loved it and will definitely use it for the next baby.

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Magic Baby Suit, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. This suit truly lives up to its name - it works like magic to put your baby to sleep! The suit is designed in a way that provides the perfect amount of soothing pressure to your little one's body, helping them feel secure and calm.I was amazed at how quickly my baby fell asleep while wearing the suit. It's like a gentle hug that lulls them into a peaceful slumber. Plus, the quality of the suit is exceptional - it's made from soft, breathable fabric that feels comfortable against your baby's skin.Overall, I highly recommend the Magic Baby Suit to any parent who is looking for a reliable and effective way to soothe their little one to sleep. It truly is a game-changer and I am so grateful to have discovered it!

Helped a lot with our kids transition out of the swaddle!

My son was waking up every 1-2 hours every single night even at 6 MONTHS. Out of complete desperation I bought this sleep suit because I remembered a friend mentioned it helped her baby. The same night we used it my son slept almost 9 HOURS STRAIGHT. Be careful if you’re doing EBF because that stretch could’ve absolutely led to a mastitis, but oh my god this suit was a total game-changer and has given me (and my son) back so much sleep. From what I’ve heard YMMV but definitely worth a shot because you may have a miracle happen too!

Baby is very comfortable and sleeps well. Used this to help with transition to crib after using a Snoo.
