Review on Tommee Tippee Sleepee Snuggee Baby Swaddle Blanket, 1.0 Tog - 3-9 Months Blue For Newborns by Lauren Perry

The Tommee Tippee Sleepee Snuggee sleep bag is excellent quality. No loose stitching and all edges are finished, very impressed with the zipper stopper so the zipper doesn’t hit baby’s neck, and soft and smooth fabric.My baby is almost 9 months which is at the top of the size range for this item but we had to try it out! He’s currently 28 inches long and 23 lbs, which is over the recommended weight, but the way he carries his weight more in his arms and legs I figured he’d fit. I zipped him in with his arms out and he’s comfortably snug. He has an inch or so in the bottom of the sack. He’s currently going through a sleep regression and isn’t sleeping like normal though so I cannot speak as to whether this item will help baby sleep better with arms out or not. When he was littler he slept very well while swaddled and I expect this item would’ve been no different (wish it was around a few months ago!). I was going to put his arms in for review purposes (REMEMBER that you shouldn’t swaddle with arms in after baby can roll as it’s dangerous) but he was too chunky to fit with arms in.The arms in swaddle feature though is great. There are two snaps on each arm hole that turn the arm hole inside and keep the arms in. The arms in feature can be used on both sides at the same time or one arm at a time for transitioning out of the swaddle. It’s great that this is all in one product and no extra "transition” product is needed when transitioning from swaddle to sleep sack/bag.This sack is rated as 1.0 tog, and is two layers of thick cotton without any filling between the layers. It is 100% cotton on the inside layer, outside layer is 95% cotton and 5% elastane to make it stretchier.It is worth noting that the handy "What to Wear” guide included on the front of the package on a hang tag does not match the guide on the back of the package. The guide on the back of the package appears to be for a higher tog product and doesn’t seem to match this 1.0 tog sack. The hang tag guide on front appears to be correct for this product except it says "snuggle” instead of "snuggee.” Whoops! Still a great sack though!Compared to other brands, this sack is the same length as Kyte Baby 0-6 months and Hudson Baby 6-12 months.As far as the panda pattern goes, I love it and think it’s adorable! I consider it a very neutral pattern, however it does have a very small amount of pink on it (to make the panda faces have rosy cheeks) but I don’t have a problem putting it on my son. It is something to keep in mind though when gifting this pattern if the parent(s) don’t want their son to wear pink.We will definitely be using this product as long as we can now and will use it again someday for the next baby. Hope Tommee Tippee considers making this shape of sack in larger sizes without the swaddle feature since my baby seems to like the snug waist. I would recommend this product to friends!
