Amazing swaddle!
Amazing swaddle to have with a newborn. My forst loved being arms in so this is what I was expecting for my second. He is the complete opposite and loves having his arms out. Being able to use this swaddle either way is a huge bonus and money saver when you don't know what your baby will like!... Show more

Best baby purchase ever
I’m a first time mum with a 7 week old and I refused to buy any sort of sleeping bag while pregnant because I thought it was a ridiculous, trendy gimic. When my girl was 2 weeks old at 3am I ordered an ergo pouch sleeping bag as it was on sale and boy was it the best purchase I’ve ever made. We both are having much better sleeps, she doesn’t come out don’t he swaddle and best of all I don’t have to use any bedding in her bassinet and won’t have to stress about her getting suffocated. Also I know her body will be at a perfect temperature all night... Show more

Best swaddle bag ever !
Love love love! Have used these from 4 weeks and baby sleeps great. We purchased 2 to have on rotation. Just ordered the next size up. 11 week old is now sleeping with her arms out and we went straight from arms in to out with no problems ! The tog rating takes the guess work out of keeping Bub warm.... Show more

Great except for 1 worrying design flaw
Lovely healthy sleeping bag. My one gripe is that the pointed end of the zip sometimes spikes baby upwards into his neck, because the flap that protects baby's neck from the zip often gets rubbed to the side to expose the zip by baby moving his head. I do wonder whether, if the zip pushed into a baby's artery, it could kill them due to stopping oxygen to the brain (it only takes seconds to lose consciousness if the artery gets squashed - I have had it happen to me when put in a headlock by a friend once), so this design flaw unnerves me and means I am always checking the flap and moving it back over the zip whenever he is being spiked in the neck by the upturned zip. Perhaps the flap should be stiffened to stop this happening. The end of the zip should definitely be ... MoreLovely healthy sleeping bag.

Perhaps the flap should be stiffened to stop this happening. The end of the zip should definitely be blunt instead of pointy.He has a cheap Target sleepsuit that has a nice rounded end to the zip pull in case the flap doesn't always cover the zip, so a rounded zip pull shouldn't be hard to source.For now, I am just having to trust that Ergopouch know that it is safe for him to get jabbed in the neck with the pointy zip pull, but it doesn't look comfortable even if it is safe....

Great for colder sleeping climates
We live in a northern climate in a drafty old farmhouse. There are times where it gets to -40° F in the winter. After have a winter baby, I panicked realizing how cold our room was and how unprepared we were for a comfortable sleep set up. I purchased the 2.5 tog sleep sack, 1.0 Tog Zippy and Butterfly Cardi for our newborn. It's definitely given me peice of mind and I love the set up! The material of the sleep sack is thick, soft and stretchy and has held up and washed great the past two months we have had it. Im excited to get into the 3+ tog rating when he gets bigger for next year.Cons for me- material seems to bunch up a little bit because it is so stretchy. I find myself have to adjust the fabric from bunching between the Butterfly Cardi and his sleep sack ... MoreWe live in a northern climate in a drafty old farmhouse.

I find myself have to adjust the fabric from bunching between the Butterfly Cardi and his sleep sack frequently. The zipper cover protector is also pretty stretchy and the zipper will pop out and poke him in the face sometimes which is a bummer.Otherwise I highly recommend for colder sleeping climates, it's the next best thing to wool in my opinion! Iwould love to see some wool products someday too!... Show more

Great swaddle
I used ErgoPouches with my 1st son and knew I needed them again for my second. I love them. This one is thicker and cozier that 1 tog pouch and is perfect for winter babies. I love how easy it is to put my little one in and just zip up, no need for fumbling with velcro with an unhappy baby or sleepy eyes. Absolutely recommend all the ErgoPouches.... Show more

Highly recommend
We absolutely love these sleeping bags. They are so easy to use, really versatile with the ability to have the arms in or out, and love that we can be confident our baby is warm enough based on the TOG rating. We ordered our first ones before we had left hospital (as swaddling was hit and miss) and made sure we had the next size up on hand as our baby grew, as we can't be without them!... Show more

Natural fibres and looks great
Another quality product. Love that it's made from natural fibres, which is why we have always used this brand. Our son is very tall but not ready to move out of the cot so we needed a longer bag. We bought all 3 different TOG bags to suit the changing seasons.... Show more

Swaddles my baby but is
Swaddles my baby but is not completely restricted in his arm movements due to the stretchy top part of the bag. Lovely material that is high quality.Arm holes are quite small and chest measurements is the same. If your baby is quite long in the body/arms would suggest going up a size and base size on length of baby not age... Show more

Wonderful. sleepsuit.
I have used these bags since my Great Grandson came into my life. They are an absolute necessary for a great night sleep both for Mum, Dad,and Grandparents.As soon as my Grandson gets his sleeping bag on he is so relaxed for 15 minutes for a cuddle then into bed. It took 5 night to develop this routine and now he is used to it.So is Mum and Dad. Just ordered ans recieved the latest size. He is 3 yrs old.... Show more
