it's a swaddling sleeping sack. I saw it on instagram (never seen one before) and it looks lovely. I have heard that swaddling babies are dangerous now, something to do with their hips? DS loved it and his hips are fine..?

Anyway, has anyone tried it or will anyone be buying one?

The advice with swaddling is that you need to have it loose enough around baby's hips that they can move their legs open. Some swaddling sacks allow for this, however the woombie looks very tight around the hips which has been linked to hip dysplacia. I've been eyeing up the summer infant swaddleme as this is tight around the arms but loose around the hips.
