Swaddling is a popular method parents use to wrap their baby snugly during sleep. It dates back to ancient times when parents and caretakers recognized the benefits of swaddling and like most things that work, it’s here to stay. Swaddling your baby keeps them feeling safe and comfortable; as the wrapping imitates the womb and soothes them. This promotes a healthy night sleep and if they happen to stir, they can self-sooth back to sleep.
