My daughter was born smack in the middle of the summer, so it was a constant battle to find fabrics that kept her comfortably swaddled but not too hot. Luckily, a new line of baby blankets and sleepwear from one of our favorite indie labels, aden+anais, makes it simpler to navigate the heat when baby #3 comes along.
We love everything at aden+anais (they have Hello Kitty muslin!). We have included their swaddles in our Baby Shower Gift Guide, and the new line of bamboo baby swaddles and bamboo sleep bags make us love them even more. It’s so lightweight and breatheable, it’s perfect for summer babies.
For naps, they’re perfect for swaddling. Or if you need an extra layer of warmth for baby on cooler nights, opt for the ultra-soft bamboo sleep sacks. I love that they’re gossamer thin to prevent overheating, and the smart full-length zipper is handy for those 3 AM diaper changes.
The patterns are gorgeously subtle with three sizes, even babies up to about 20 pounds can get comfy. With any luck, this will help parents sleep more soundly too. –Jeana
The bamboo baby blankets are $45 for a pack of three and the bamboo sleep sacks are $37. Visit the aden+anais website for more details and designs.
