Nested bean sack or Merlin Sleep Sack
Show your support
@Kayla do you use it for day and night time sleep?
Weighted sleep sacks are not recommended by the AAP so I would go with the Merlin sleep suit
I have both the nested didn’t seem like anything special to us but a regular sack. The Merlín did wonders for my second can’t wait to put it on my 2 month old, I think it’s 3 months n up tho
Merlin has been AMAZING for my baby boy
@Sara it’s from 12 lbs and up
Love the Merlin. Wouldn’t risk a weighted anything at this young
My son HATED the swaddle, and since he is a side sleeper I only really put him in it a couple of times. We love the Merlin sleep suit and a quilted sleep sack that I found on Amazon. I wouldn’t do the nested bean because it is unsafe for babies under the age of 2 to use weighted blankets/sleep sacks.
My brother and sister in law swear by the Merlin! My mom is getting one for my daughter for Christmas and I'm so excited to try it out. One tip, if you haven't already tried it, do the halo sleep swaddle but keep her arms out and swaddle only the middle. My daughter hated her arms in the swaddle, so that's how we started. We were able to slowly work up to a full swaddle after a week or so.
@Yasmeen we just use her sleep sack for night time.
I love our nested bean sleep sack I bought our baby girl.
