A little while ago, an Australian friend of mine who lives in the UK and is expecting her third child in July, asked if I knew where she could find large muslin wraps. Having used them in Australia where her older children were born, she was disappointed to find that all we have here in the UK are muslin squares which are much smaller and nowhere near as versatile. So I set myself a challenge to source some beautiful organic muslin swaddling wraps and after much searching, am thrilled to be adding Aden & Anais as a new brand to DaisychainBaby.
Although not yet a mum myself, I’ve spoken to many parents about the wonderful benefits of swaddling, which is an age old technique used to help babies feel safe and secure. It is designed to imitate the security of the enclosed surroundings they experienced in the womb, making them feel safer and therefore more relaxed, and also helps them to sleep on their backs which is the pediatrician recommended sleeping position. Muslin is a particularly suitable fabric for swaddling as it has a light, open weave that allows air to flow seamlessly through the material.
Aden & Anais have designed an amazing range of muslin wraps and I was so excited when I realised that they also offer 100% organic cotton muslin wraps, certified by GOTS. I knew then that the search was over and these were the ones I wanted for DaisychainBaby! The wraps are retailing at 20.00 - to see them, click here.
