SO - Aden & Anais blankets

[aegis2005]

When I was pregnant I remember Kate raving about them.  She was right

I've used them for covering the car seat when it's sprinkling (or if there are sick people I don't want breathing on him) and as a make shift breastfeeding cover.  What have you used yours for?

I still love them. I've kind of become a junkie for any of the crap that company makes. I really love the crib sheets.

As for the swaddles, I use them to cover the carseat when the sun is right in his eyes, but the latest and greatest use for them is binkie. My babes won't take a binkie, but he loves to suck on a blanket. Whatever works, I guess. Actually it's kind of adorable, because he kind of cuddles the blanket and sucks on it at the same time. And now I miss him.

I loved them for a breastfeeding cover better than my actual breastfeeding cover. I also used them to cover the carseat, I keep one in the car at all times in case we need to sit in the grass, etc. etc. They're such great all-purpose blankets.

Have you tried the bamboo swaddle blankets? They're so soft, they're HEAVENLY. My H had a coworker at his last job whose husband worked for A&A and got us a bunch of samples of stuff, including those when they first came out. They are my favorite thing ever.

I also love their little security blankets with the satin edges. They come in a 2-pack so Ellie and I each sleep with one and every couple of days I switch them out so hers will smell like me. She loves to cuddle up with them to fall asleep. It's precious.

Everything. I literally have one with/on her at most times.

Somehow I completely missed out on knowing about these in the past. I'm not sure how that happened. I was just gifted 2 of the Bambinoland ones, but from all the raving I've heard about muslin blankets, I think I need to go buy a bunch more. The aden + anais ones are less expensive and from what I read just as good of quality, so I'm going to buy those.

I don't have the blankets but I have A&A's lotion, baby wash and ointment. Smells like heaven!

Guess I'm going to have to get some for #2!

We use them for everything too. They are great swaddlers (youtube the double swaddle!), we use them to keep the sun out, light blankets. Drew uses the loveys with the satin around them too. When he was tiny, he used to pull stuff over his face so i bought these because they are so breathable and he still sleeps with them every night.

Pssst, they have adult sized blankets, too.

I had an A + A bib for Zoe but I don't think the blankets were as popular. I have some for jack and I love them!!

I love everything they make except for the towel with the hood. It's too rough.
