baby sleep sack review at offbeat mama

Minnesota Mama's Must Haves blog is written by Sarah a stay at home mom as well as a Registered Nurse. Sarah worked in Labor & Delivery before deciding to become a stay at home mom when she had her daughter. Her kids now are the light of her life and she loves having the privilege of staying home with them.

With Sarah's background as a nurse working with babies I think it is fair to say that her opinion is worth listening to.

"I am an avid user of baby sleep bags. I don't cover Aiden with blankets in the crib because it is unsafe and in order to prevent SIDS it is recommended that you not have any blankets in the crib. Being that we live in Minnesota and have very cold winters as well as chilly weather the majority of the year, having my baby in his crib without a blanket would not be possible without the use of a sleep bag. "

"It is made with superfine allergy-safe merino wool but it is definitely not scratchy on baby's skin. It is super soft material and is warm, cuddly and cozy. The 100% natural long staple cotton outer layer for extra durability makes it soft and smooth. It has a great slit opening in the front and back so your baby can safely wear it in the car seat, stroller, swing and more. This makes it really easy to go from car seat straight to bed!
I love that the should snaps also allow you to fold down the side of the sleep bag and nurse your baby without the risk of getting it soiled. This keeps it clean longer and you don't have to wash it as often!"

"The sleep bag is sized for 0-2 years old. I was really skeptical that it would actually fit my baby until he was two but the design is ingenious and really allows it to fit well at every stage. There is a snap that you can either snap or leave unsnapped for a perfect fit no matter their size."

Pros: Amazing quality, wool keeps baby dry and regulates temperature well in different climates, reduces risk of SIDS, fits ages 0-2 years.

Cons: The price may seem high but the quality is amazing and considering you don't have to buy several sizes and only need one size until age 2, the price is better than others. Think of what you'd spend on several sizes of other sleep bags up to age 2!

I think it is fair to say that she really can't find any 'Cons' with the Merino Kids baby sleep sack! Thanks so much for the review Sarah. We really appreciate your professional opinion as both nurse and mother.
