By way of definition, since you really had no need to know until now, a swaddle is basically a square of comfy fabric used to wrap your kid, papoose-style. The only requirements are durability, washability, and softness. Nothing fancy. Oh, and it should be big enough to wrap your kid, which would have been hilarious to watch you try and figure out the hard way. Once you have your swaddle, it’s time to start wrapping. It’s not that difficult, really. Just think of it like wrapping a triangular, open-ended burrito. Here’s how to fill it: Congratulations! You swaddled the heck out of that baby, and are now probably hungry for a burrito. If you need more practice, a video and illustrated guide to the easiest 4-step process around, or just want to buy a proper swaddle, these guys have it all under wraps.
