How should I dress my baby under the Love to Dream™ Transition Bags/Suits.

Overheating has been linked to SIDS so it is very important to ensure your baby does not overheat. Our products have been designed to eliminate multiple layers of wrapping. The table below provides you with guidelines around how to dress your baby based on the room temperature.

Do your Transition Bags/Suits allow for a natural development of the hip joints?

The design of our Swaddle Up™ Transition Bags/Suits allows hips & legs to move freely.

The fit should be snug

A snug fit around the arms and torso helps calm the Moro/Startle Reflex. The neck hole should fit closely and comfortably without being restrictive (you should be able to get 1 to 2 fingers in the neck hole). The neck hole must not be able to pass up and over the baby's mouth. For the best fit, please select the size based on your child's weight, not their height or age.

You need to stop swaddling and start transitioning as soon as your baby starts showing signs of rolling over. The Love To Dream™ transition bag or transition suit are perfect to transition from swaddling to 'arms-free' sleep.

Swaddle Up™ Transitioning FAQs

When should I stop swaddling my baby and transition?

Irrespective of which swaddling method you use, you must stop swaddling your baby as soon as he or she starts to show signs of being able to roll over independently. At this time, you must transition your baby out of swaddling into 'arms-free' sleeping. Your baby's arms should not be restricted when they are able to roll over - this advice is the same for any form of swaddling you may be using. Around this time, you baby's startle reflex should have diminished. The Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag/Suit is a great way to prepare your baby for the transition from being swaddled to 'arms-free' independent sleep.

Why Transition Bag/Suit?

As soon as a baby shows signs of rolling, parents must stop swaddling & transition their baby to 'arms-free' sleep. Our Transition Bag or Suit is the simplest solution to transition a baby from being swaddled to 'arms-free' - all while preserving their cherished sleep routine.

What's the easiest way to transition my baby?

If your baby has not shown signs of rolling yet, you can simply allow them to sleep in the Swaddle Up™ Transition Suit until they show signs of trying to roll. Once they show signs of trying to roll over, you must stop swaddling your baby and transition them. Start with one Arms Up wing and one self-soothing SLEEVE on (cuff folded over). After several nights of your baby settling into this routine, remove the Arms Up wing and start bedtime off with both self-soothing SLEEVES zipped on (cuffs folded over). Once your baby has settled into a routine, you can open the cuffs for true arms-free sleep. Some babies transition in a few nights, others can take a few weeks. The Swaddle Up™ Transition Suit with self-soothing SLEEVES is especially helpful for any baby who is having a harder time going from being swaddled to arms-free sleep.

What is a TOG?

A TOG Rating is a number which tells you how warm a garment will keep your baby. The higher the number, the warmer your little one will be when wearing the garment. This means higher TOG ratings keep your baby warm during colder winter months, while lower TOG ratings keep your baby cool in the hotter summer season. For more on TOGs and which is the right TOG for your baby, click here to read our blog post on TOG.

What size Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag/Suit should I buy?

For best fit result please select your Swaddle Up™ sizing according to your child's weight not their age. The Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag/Suit range is available in three sizes: Medium (Suitable for 13-19lbs), Large (Suitable for 19-24lbs), and Extra Large (Suitable for 24-31lbs).

How many Swaddle Up™ Transition Bags/Suits should I buy?

We recommend that you purchase at least two in the appropriate size. If you own two, then one can be in the wash while your baby is wearing the other one. It might even be helpful to consider having a third on hand to use in case of emergencies.
