Sleep Architecture: The Mechanics of Swaddling
A swaddle is a sleep tool designed to recreate the confinement of the womb, suppressing the Moro reflex (startle reflex) that often wakes infants. The category evolves from tight wrapping to transitional freedom. baby enRoute curates a progression of sleep textiles from Aden + Anais and Love To Dream, ensuring parents have the right "containment" level for every developmental stage.
Material Breathability: Muslin vs. Bamboo
Overheating is a risk factor in infant sleep. We prioritize open-weave muslin and bamboo rayon fabrics because they allow excess body heat to escape. This thermal regulation ensures the baby remains secure without becoming sweaty, which is critical for longer sleep stretches.
The Transition Logic
Once a baby shows signs of rolling, the swaddle must be retired for safety. We feature transitional sleep sacks that allow arms to be free while still providing the "sleeping bag" comfort. This step-down approach helps maintain the sleep association while accommodating the new motor skill of rolling.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why use a "hands-up" swaddle?
A: Scenario: Baby fights the traditional arm-down swaddle.
Recommendation: Try a design like Love To Dream.
Reason: Many infants naturally sleep with arms up; this design allows self-soothing (hand-to-mouth) while still dampening the startle reflex.
Q: What is a TOG rating?
A: Scenario: Choosing a sleep sack for winter.
Recommendation: Select based on room temperature, not season.
Reason: TOG measures thermal resistance. A 2.5 TOG is for cool rooms (16-20°C), while 0.5 TOG is for warm nights (24°C+).
