Does anyone know whether and where I can buy stretchy baby blankets, like the ones they give you at the hospital? I think one we were given had "sunlight" on it and another had MIP UK on the tag. They are stretchy and really great for swaddling, but I can't find them anywhere in stores.
Thank you

The one DD was wrapped in looked more like a hand towel. It had Sunlight on too.

Sunlight isn't the blanket manufacturer it's the laundry company that supplies and washes all NHS textiles. (I used to work for a laundry equipment manufacturer).

It's not the cheapest but what about something like this: www.kiddicare.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/productdisplayA_2903_10751_-1_52178_103564_10001_14736

We accidentally took a hospital blanket home with us and it was indeed the best sort for swaddling!
