Why use a SleepSack™ Swaddle?

Swaddling of infants has been common practice around the world for thousands of years. It has been shown that wrapping an infant snugly comforts them and immobilizing the arms prevents the "moro", or startle reflex, allowing them to sleep more soundly. The 2-in-1 SleepSack™ Swaddle helps infants to be swaddled from birth, but also allows you to remove the swaddle feature when no longer needed and use the SleepSack™ wearable blanket alone.

Recent warnings from the American Academy of Pediatrics, U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, First Candle/SIDS Alliance and the National Institute for Health and Human Development caution against the use of loose bedding, as it can be a hazard if infants cover their nose or mouth and create a situation where they can re-breathe their own carbon dioxide. They now suggest the use of a wearable blanket.

Re-breathing is believed to be one of the risk factors leading to SIDS. It occurs when a baby sleeps in certain positions or rolls onto his or her stomach and creates pockets of exhaled carbon dioxide around the nose and mouth. Loose bedding can bunch up around the baby's face creating these same types of pockets. Studies have found that this re-breathing phenomenon has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of infants annually.

Slip the wearable blanket over your baby's regular sleepwear as a replacemet to loose blankets. You will normally want to put a "onesie" or long sleeve sleeper on underneath the wearable blanket depending on your nursery temperature. Don't put anything on your baby's head to prevent overheating. The SleepSack™ wearable blanket will keep them just right!

The U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commision, the American Academy of Pedriatrics and First Candle/SIDS Alliance warn against loose bedding in the Crib. New guidelines now suggest the use of a wearable blanket. Bedding that bunches up around baby's mouth and nose can cause dangerous rebrething of carbon dioxide. The HALO SleepSack wearable blanket lessens the likelihood of infants getting blankets over or around their face. Parents report babies sleep better with a HALO SleepSack wearable blanket, since they stay covered all night. Remember that back is best for sleeping babies. La Comision para la Seguridad de los Productos de Consumo de los EE.UU., la Academia Estadounidense de Pediatria y organizaciones lideres en la precencion de la muerte infantil subita advierten contra el uso de ropa de cama suelta que puede amontonarse alrededor de la boca y la nariz de un bebe, lo cual produce la respiracion peligrosa del dioxido de carbono. La monta personal HALO SleepSack mantiene al bebe cubierto y abrigado durante toda la noche mientras reduce la probabilidad de que la tela le perjudique la respiracion. Recuerde que conviene que el bebe duerma de espaldas.

In 1991, Bill Schmid and his wife suffered an unspeakable tragedy when they lost their infant daughter to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), which is the sudden, unexplained death of a seemingly healthy infant up to the age of one year.

As an engineer, Bill devoted himself to finding new and creative ways to address these risks, which are primarily centered around loose bedding.

In 1994, with these risks in mind, Bill formed Halo Innovations and in 1999 the SleepSack™ wearable blanket was created, which is intended to eliminate the likelihood that a baby can get entangled with clothing and loose bedding during sleep.

Since it launch, the SleepSack™ brand has become the nation's best selling wearable blanket for babies, and is the first product to be recommended by the First Candle/SIDS Alliance.

A percentage of each SleepSack™ Halo sells helps support the SIDS Alliance.
