Try a Woombie. I've got lots of friends that *swear* by them.

I was always too cheap and just bought blankets with a little stretch in them.

Have you tried using a normal baby blanket? That's what I always use. I get a nice size baby blanket and wrap them up really good and tight and secure. It doesn't matter so much what blanket as much as your ninja skills in wrapping them up;-)

I used Swaddle Me blankets made by Summer for my now 13 month old daughter but like a previous poster said you have to watch to make sure she can't wiggle out of the blanket. Once she got a little older I started swaddling her in a normal blanket.

love the miracle blanket-legs not tight but arms aren't getting out for anything :)

My son was swaddled when he slept until he was almost a year old -- we just kept switching to larger blankets and swaddling the same way. Walmart had some larger receiving blankets, and when those got too small, I would sew two of them together, or we had some twin sized flat sheets that I cut in half and hemmed.

aden and anais makes the light cotton muslin blankets that are really big...i swaddled my first in those until she was 4 months old, then she didn't want to be swaddled anymore, but they are large and breathable.

please be careful... my daughter was a little older than yours and sleeping in her swaddler like always, she couldnt sleep without it, and i walked in one day to find she had wiggled her arms out through the bottom of those "wings" that velcro across the front, and lifted her arms up so it was across her neck. she was fine. but...... so, just blankets ...unless they make them differently now?
