> 3 dayThese are a must-have new baby item. We use them for everything - car seat blankets, burp cloths, and swaddling! They are the perfect all-around, any-time-of-year blanket to use for babies of all ages. They are probably the safest and easiest-to-use swaddling blanket (and if you dont know how to swaddle, learn how now because it is what is helping our baby sleep through the night). For us, the pre-made swaddling contraptions (SwaddleMe, Miracle Blanket, etc) dont work because our daughter is a little Houdini and can easily break out of those. However, when we use A+A blankets and wrap her securely, she is snug as a bug and falls asleep instantly. The light-weight cotton is the safest material for a baby and makes this blanket perfect for all times of year. During the cold months we are using the blankets in conjunction with a sleep sack so baby can be swaddled and also warm. These are seriously the item we have used the most during our first 5 weeks. I freak out when they all simultaneously end up in the wash, so just ordered another set. They have been well worth the money. They will also be the item that Ill be purchasing for friends expecting a new baby. I initially thought $50 for blankets was absurd, but they are worth it.

> 3 dayPerfect all purpose swaddle blankets! I buy these for pretty much every baby shower I go to. They are large, soft, absorbent. stretchy and work great as swaddles, burp cloths, sun covers, mats, a light blanket, emergency changing pad, anything... Throw it over your car seat when the sun is blazing over the parking lot, and it will keep the seat cool upon your return trip, throw this breathable blanket over your stroller, and give baby some shelter from the sun or help baby take a nap, throw it over your shoulder, and you have a soft burp cloth for babys head, tuck it tightly under a pnp mattress, and you have a last minute, soft and clean travel sheet that smells like home, hang it outside the pnp to keep out the suns morning rays or just hide baby from the distraction of mommy and daddy sleeping close by in the hotel room (this one is a favorite). These are also my favorite swaddle blankets as they are so light and breathable - no worries about overheating, especially for summer babies. They are smushy and take up very little space in a diaper bag, despite their size, and they weigh almost nothing. Just Love Love Love. Oh, and the cheaper ones being sold at Target, BBB and Babies R Us, etc. are not the same. They are still good, I have both, but the quality and softness is just not the same. Also, the cheaper ones are smaller in size.

> 3 dayI LOVE these blankets! We have twins and these are now the only blankets we use. We got rid of most of our other blankets and bought several more of these. We own about 30 now. They are very breathable a d extremely soft on our babies delicate eczema prone skin. When doubled up they are also very warm, but not too warm. We live in Arizona and it gets very hot. These blankets let me wrap them so they feel secure without overheating them. I keep several in the car to use as shade from the sun on their stroller and their car seats. Keeps the sun off their face without making them hotter.

17-11-2024These are huge! I felt crazy for splurging on blankets because it seems like thats what baby always gets as gifts! I am so glad I did! These are the 47 x 47 set and great for a nursing cover and car seat cover in the summer as well as just great breathable but cozy blanket. This size was a little to much fabric for my 7 lb 4 oz newborn to be swaddled in (however I do not claim to be the swaddle master), but youre in luck because aden + anais makes smaller ones 44x44 and 42x42 so just keep an eye out! These are a must have

Greater than one weekI bought my first Aden and Anais blanket with my second son while we were in the hospital with an extended NICU stay. The blanket quickly became my favorite and I wish I had it with my first baby. They are durable, large, wash well, and get better (and softer) with time. I ran across this pattern and couldnt get it out of my brain, so I decided to add this set to the one I always used. I use these blankets ALL the time - they go with me everywhere. I have used them for swaddling, a nursing over, a car seat cover (in a light drizzle or a windy walk), a blanket, a sun shade, a burp cloth, to sop up messes, and to clean off my older kids face/skin after muddy or sandy play. Throw them in the wash and they are good to go. I would highly recommend these to any new momma or a mother that has kiddos and is on the fence about purchasing. They are a bit of money, but truly are a work horse and worth the investment.

Greater than one weekThese swaddle blankets are by far my favorite, they are large enough to swaddle your newborn and use as a blanket.

> 3 dayI love these blankets and use them for everything- swaddling my daughter, rolling them up and using them to prop my arm up while she’s nursing, draping over her car seat, even as a backdrop for pictures of her- by far our favorite blankets that we use! Super breathable and very soft.

> 3 dayOne week at home so far, and Ive used ours a decent amount. Theyre soft and lightweight, so we use it to swaddle her when we want a lighter option. The patterns are also super cute, and the blanket is larger than traditional swaddle blankets so you have more room to play with - also more fabric if youre still getting the hang of swaddling. Im sure we will continue to use them for the next few years at least.

> 3 dayI bought these for my sister in law for gift. The pattern is very cute, true to picture. We probably have 10 Aiden and Anais blankets and love them. When my kids were infants we used them as swaddles, covers on car seats, blankets in car, shade in stroller, nursing covers and even now still have them in the car. They are a great size, high quality and wash really well. Would recommend for any family. We also have the dream blankets, which are great!

Greater than one weekWe were gifted a set for our first baby and when we got pregnant a second time this was first on our wish list. Perfect for swaddling - our little one outgrew traditional swaddling blankets within two weeks. The give of the muslin allows for a snug, secure swaddle and the patterns are adorable for both a girl and boy. This is also the gift that we send to all expecting parents.
