I heard about the miracle blanket from a mother of twins that were patients of mine. Being the father of a 4 week old infant (who is very active and difficult to swaddle), I decided to give it a try and bought one on eBay. It has been fantastic. It has definitely increased the length of time that he sleeps as becoming 'unswaddled' was the number one reason he could not sleep long intervals. I have since recommended it to numerous patients and will continue to do so. Congratulations on such an innovative invention. I wish I had thought of it. ; - )

Our more experienced Maternity Ward] nurses were very skeptical. But now [even] THEY are asking for more ... They want to give a Miracle Blanket to every new parent!"

I am a pediatric intensive care nurse, so I am skeptical about alot of when it comes to my baby. I make no decisions regarding him without the proper research. So when my newborn's fussiness seemed to become so heightened that he would constantly wake himself up, he would turn him into a tired fussy baby. I was beside myself. As a first time mother I was frustrated and so was he! I also felt like a failure when I was unable to console him. I would try the five "S's" but could never really get pass the most important step of swaddling, being that he was born nine pounds and three ounces and he was really strong. It was really hard to swaddle him with conventional blankets because he would break out of them. After one night of no sleep, due to his fussiness, I was convinced that something was wrong with him, and called my pediatrician, who recommended the blanket. I ordered it the same day, and after two days of getting him used to it, he now loves it. He will be three months on 3/29, and I have used his blanket every single day since we have received it. He actually has two, in case one is dirty. He looks forward to it to help him sleep. Now when he gets fussy I just wrap him in his blanket and he instantly calms down and goes to sleep. He totally looks forward to getting in his blanket. I would recommend this blanket to every parent - it is my new baby shower gift.

I love your product and mention it many times a day in my pediatric practice. I'm a huge believer that swaddling leads to successful sleep habits.

Thank you again,

The Miracle Blanket was developed by busy father Michael Gatten to alleviate newborns' and infants' crying and fussing — at night and other times. Designed to soothe a baby by mimicking the snugness of the uterus, the blanket provides a tight swaddle that leaves little wiggle room.

I'd love to have a Miracle Blanket to show parents in the office. Sometimes it's difficult to demonstrate how much more calm and happy a swaddled baby can be, when the only blanket the parents have is a tiny little receiving blanket ... My little one is 8 months old now; I bought the [Miracle Blanket] for our account manager in the office who is due in November. However, I'm sure I'll be purchasing again for myself, as we plan to hopefully provide Esme with a sibling in the next 18 months or so! You'll be happy to hear that I mentioned the Miracle Blanket to a family yesterday, and they said, "Oh, we have two of those already! I bought one as soon as I found out I was pregnant, and got another at the baby shower!" Obviously the word is getting out!

Sincerely,
Krista

As a mother of three, I was finally able to "enjoy" my last daughter's early days, weeks and months....thanks to discovering the Miracle Blanket! The blanket eliminated colic, and encouraged her to sleep for longer periods of time. With both of us getting more restful sleep at night, I had better success at breastfeeding, and subsequently had more patience and energy for the coming day. I now recommend that all my clients, friends and family members put a Miracle Blanket on their Baby Shower list!"

Parents talk about The Amazing Miracle Blanket

LOVE THE BLANKET!!!!!! It is a true Miracle. Helped us sooooooo much. 5 hrs sleep first night! 7 hours the next. It may look like a little straight jacket, but boy is it worth every penny! Every parent should have this wonderful tool to help them. So glad we found out about the blanket from another parent. We are rapidly spreading the word. Thank you, Thank you!

I heard about you in Good Housekeeping Magazine and I bought two [Miracle Blankets]and love them. Now I'm buying one for a gift. Great product!

I have 2 miracle blankets for myself and plan to always buy them as shower gifts! They saved my sanity when my baby was newborn! I don't know how he would have gotten any sleep if we didn't have it!
