Getting to know your baby comes with a learning curve, but that’s just the balancing act called parenting. Between the lack of sleep and long nights there’s always the magical (and sometimes rare) quiet moments you get to enjoy cuddling your newborn — and that’s what makes it all worth it.

No matter where you’re at on the learning curve, taking care of your little one will always be your top priority and ours at BreathableBaby. Learn about the benefits to swaddling your newborn to help them (and you) get longer and safer sleep.

The most basic way to tell if a baby is swaddled too tightly is to place two fingers between the baby’s chest and the swaddle. If there is just enough room to fit two fingers of space between their chest and the swaddle then the baby is swaddled correctly — not too tight, not too loose.

Learning how to tell if a baby is swaddled too tightly is one of the many things you’ll pick up right out of the gate when it comes to taking care of your newborn.

Catch up on a few more swaddling basics and get answers to questions before you become a parent to your new little one.

Many of us are living hectic lives and only thinking about the day-to-day, so it’s hard to remember all the special events coming up this week or the next!

We’ve all been there and know it may be a little too easy to put off getting that gift for the shower. When it does somehow end up on your to-do list you know you want to spend some time finding a practical, yet personal, gift to show your support for expecting friends or family.
