Has anyone used the Velcro swaddle wraps?

I just wondered what people thought of the swaddle wraps that have the Velcro on them?
did you prefer to swaddle your baby with a swaddle blanket instead?

Yes but I didn't like them and sold them on Vinted for a fraction of the price

I tried them with my first born years ago. For my second we got the ones where you zip them in and it places their arms with their hands up by their ears/chin. They were amazing. I can't for the life of me remember the name of them, maybe dream baby or something. They're very popular. Expensive so get them off Vinted

Love to Dream? I bought one for my newborn - was fully intending just to reuse the sleeping bags we had for my firstborn , but their social media marketing got me! He didn’t like it much the first time I put him in it after being used to being tightly swaddled in blankets at hospital, and seemed to prefer Tommee Tippee sleeping bags with his arms zipped in. Then after a few days, he started sleeping really well in the love to dream and began to hate being zipped in to the Tommee tippee. I got the newborn size in Love to Dream though and he’s now grown out of it at four weeks. I was looking to get the next size up, but they really are quite expensive and not sure what tog told invest in at this time of year! In the meantime he’s started sleeping fairly well without having his arms zipped in to The Tommee Tippee bags. They change so quickly in these first few weeks and preferences vary so much, so you might not end up using any kind of swaddle for very long, if at all

Love2dream - I think that's what they're called

Cross posted there. Yes, that’s them! Both my dd’s were (are) terrible sleepers but I do think the love2dream helped my dc2. She’s 17 months now and hogging our bed, she just likes to have someone there to snuggle in to at all times. Cute; but annoying.

My baby hated being swaddled so no

All 3 of my babies loved being swaddled and I really rate the velcro ones when newborn.
