Love to Swaddle UP is the original and world’s first baby swaddle, that allows your baby to sleep with their arms up. This option is the LITE option for summer, which is 30% lighter weight than the original.
The lighter fabric is stretchier and thinner than the original fabric, so it doesn’t offer as much startle control. So it is generally recommended for babies with less startle control or where you really need the lighter weight fabric due to high temperatures.
When swaddling, Love to Swaddle Up means your baby still has access to their hands. This can be a great solution for babies who ’hate being swaddled’ or for parents who prefer their baby to have their arms up.
If your baby wants to suck her hands but still has a startle reflex, then Love to Swaddle Up can help keep her hands in the right place for self soothing.
Most importantly, your baby stays wrapped all night long!
Love to Swaddle Up LITE is useful for babies as you are weaning them off swaddling too, as they get used to having more movement and access to their hands.
Can be used in the baby capsule - buckle baby in then zip over the straps.
Super fast and easy to use.

What makes Love to Swaddle Up different?
With hands naturally in the wing position babies can bring their hands to their mouth or gently touch their cheeks. This can be useful for two main reasons: it helps the baby self soothe therefore settle better and babies learn about the world through hand to mouth actions even when they sleep. Therefore havingaccess to their mouth assists with development.
Ina Love to Swaddle UP baby is snugly swaddled, helping reduce startle reflex, but still has access to their hands and stays safely wrapped all night long.
The Love to Swaddle UP baby swaddle is the simple answer to safely wrapping your baby perfectly every time without needing to be really tight.
Please note:
Please note also that the lighter fabric may develop small holes after a few months use if your baby constantly sucks or chews on their hands! This is not a fault, it just means your baby has loved their wrap to death! Imagine if an item of clothing was worn many times a day and all night for months on end, it too would develop some wear and tear.

Feedback from parents:
"Whatever swaddle we tried, our son always fought his way out of it because he wanted to suck his thumb. Finally we tried your swaddle and it worked like a dream! Thank you LOVE ME BABY for helping my baby sleep better!" Stephanie, mum of Jack, 6 weeks old
"My daughter used to hate it when I swaddled her, so by 3 weeks of age I stopped swaddling which led to major sleep deprivation for us as she would wake herself up all the time. Our friend gave us one of your wraps and she LOVED it. She really loved having her hands near her face. Elsie started waking much less at night and sleeping for longer stretches. Happy baby, happy parents."
Ron, dad of Elsie, 8 weeks old
"I absolutely loveusing this wrap. It’s safe and secure, fast and easy. I stopped worrying about my little boy getting out of and tied up in his wrap and could change him at night with little fuss. The built in seatbelt access was an extra bonus allowing my baby to sleep soundly whilst I moved him from place to place. Thank you....love you...love me baby!" Tandi, mum of Liel, 2.5 months old
"WRAP ME UP not only changed my babies sleep but also my own! When Henry was in the WRAP ME UP and woke for his night feed all I needed to do was pick him up and feed him! It was that simple. No re-wrapping necessary! I would just place Henry back into his cot and he would go straight back to sleep. I love the fabric and fit of WRAP MEUP. It is so easy to use and best of all, Henry feels safe and cosy in it." Emily, mum of Henry, 6 months old.
"With my first child I found myself constantly wrapping and rewrapping him in those first unsettled months and often he would wake up in the middle of the night from an arm poking out or scratching his face. The "WRAP ME UP" solved this problem with child number 2 and I found my daughter slept a lot sounder and my husband and I spent a lot less time wrapping and rewrapping to keep those little arms secure" Naomi, mum of Ayelet, 3 months old
