I’ll never forget the day my husband came home from work telling me that the key to a new parent’s sanity was swaddling. Honestly neither of us had much experience with babies before ours so we took all the advice we could get. Some of it worked and some of it just didn’t help us but I can’t tell you where we’d be without that swaddling advice. Now once you realize that you can’t live without a swaddling blanket the next step is picking what one. From my own experience the Baby Bonkie is the best swaddling blanket one out there. The cocoon shape at the bottom prevents your baby from kicking their legs out and the multiple velcro closures don’t allow for your baby to break her arms free unlike other velcro swaddlers I’ve tried. Not only are they the most well constructed swaddlers I’ve found but they actually came about as a way for mothers to give their children a little style. True to the company’s goal, these are by far the cutest ones I’ve seen. I had a chance to review the Ava and the Maggie Minkee and not only are they adorable but they made my husband wish out loud that they made adult versions. For all the new moms out there, if you haven’t heard about swaddling before trust me this is one piece of advice you’ll want to take to heart. This is a great shower gift or gift for a new mom.
