Zipadee-zip sleep sack (shark tank)

[MamaMaui24]

Does anyone have one? I'm not currently in the market for something like this, but cool to see on Shark Tank tonight.

It's basically a roomier swaddle sack to transition from a swaddle.

They look like flying squirrels or those base jumpers.

I'm curious if people like these.

One of my best friends uses one with her son and loves it!

I saw it on shark tank a few months ago, and it would have been perfect for DD when she was little...she hated having her arms swaddled tight but she always woke herself up hitting herself or with her moro reflex.

We started using one earlier in the week and so far it's been good. DD went from 3-4 hrs stretches at night to 7-8 hrs. She's 11 weeks old and sleeps in the rnp.

We have one.

C needs access to his hands to soothe himself. I used to swaddle him with his hands by his chin but there's no access to them in the zippity zip so I don't think it's for us.

We bought one and tried it when DD was 3-4 months and we needed to stop swaddling because she was rolling. It didn't work for us. (In fairness neither did the Merlin suit or anything else.)

I passed it on to a friend and I don't think it did much for them either.

It's a really neat idea though. Our pediatrician loves them.

Nope but I think it's cool

We used it at about 3 months to transition out of the swaddle. She used it for naps and nighttime for about 3 weeks before we went to a sleep sack. She was already STTN and that continued to with the zippy, which I was super worried about. I actually loved it and am not sure how we would have gotten out of the swaddle otherwise.

So what did you do when you quit swaddling?

Cried, lol. The merlin suit made things a little better for a couple of weeks. But eventually we ended up bedsharing until we sleep trained at 8 months.
