I highly recommend the halo sleepsack swaddle . every new parent should have one in newborn size . get it before he or she arrive , so you save yourself a trip to the store in those first few day ! for the 2 day in the hospital and the first night at home , we swaddle we little girl in receive blanket -lrb- try waffle weave , thin & stretchy , thick & strong type of blanket -rrb- . well wrap she in blanket do not last long because she get out of they , and with she arm flail she keep wake herself up . not to mention , I lose sleep worry if the suddenly loose blanket would suffocate she . after the 1st night at home , we stop by baby r Us and buy 3 different brand of sleep sack . we end up try this Halo Swaddle Sleep sack , and the summer infant one -lrb- we do not even try the swaddlepod . just look scary , so we return it -rrb- . well the summer infant swaddler be really cute . it work for the first little bit , but when she get \* a little \* bigger -lrb- like a few week -rrb- , the velcro stop hold . either she get too big , or after a few time in the wash the velcro become useless . I think it be a combination of both . as for the HALO Swaddle , she have be use it every day and night . my quicktake on the item : sid prevention : I have no concern with this item , no more than any other general concern I feel for my baby all of the time anyway . yes , sometimes she be able to loosen the tight wrap a bit , and it come up above she mouth . however ... this can happen with any sleepsack or receive blanket . plus , if it be come up a little higher then it be looser . it be not tight over she mouth -lrb- as some reviewer have claim -rrb- we own sleep : every once in a while , my husband think he would wrap she in a receive blanket ... he be incredible at swaddle , but she could get out in 10 minute . we have never have better sleep than with this product . it be rare that she can get out of it . this be a baby that kick and flail constantly . Appearance\/fabric : the fleece factor be not my favorite . if you have ever own a fleece jacket , you will know that it attract every hair , fuzzball , what-have-you in the vicinity . it be also quite warm . obviously we have ac , but during the hot hot summer we keep she in tshirt + sleepsack . for this reason , I do not always feel comfortable put she in she cute footie pajamas . now that we be hit fall , i be able to put she in regular pajamas when use the sleepsack size : she be bear 7 ' 2 '' and 20 inch . the newborn size last we till now at 10 week . she be currently 10 ' 2 '' and 22 inch . I be back to order the small size because she foot be about to hit the bottom of the blanket . Quality of velcro : it have be through several wash , and I see no difference in the velcro 's ability to hold . unlike the summerinfant brand . we always try to remember to close the velcro before wash . other review : -lrb- 1 -rrb- mention of loop in front - I do not see these 2 -rrb- claim about lose tooth ? - I have no idea how this would happen . the zipper start at the top and come down so the pull-tab end at she foot , so how a baby could cut she tooth on the zipper I do not know . many pajamas have zipper so I do not know how this be any different .
