The disclosure provides infant swaddling device or system in the form of two sleeves to help dampen the moro reflex—one for each arm—with the option of a non-flexible backing (or splint) and weighting. This device safely mimics the swaddling effect by adequately reducing the moro (twitching) reflex and flailing of arms, thus helping baby sleep for longer periods of time. The infant swaddle device may eliminate or reduce the risk of suffocation or overheating that other swaddle transition suits, garments, methods, or devices pose. This device can be used as a swaddle alternative; in conjunction of a swaddle blanket or sack, pod, etc. or without; or as a transition device to easily wean infants from the swaddle.

A fitted towel wrap includes one or more fasteners that allow the towel to be draped over and held in place on a human body to thereby cover up at least a portion the torso of the human body.

A swaddling garment is provided for securely maintaining an infant within the garment. The garment comprises and inner strap configured to bind the arms of an infant and an exterior strap attached to the exterior of the garment for wrapping around the garment and the infant being partially maintained by the weight of the infant and optional fastener sets to connect the exterior strap to itself or to the sack of the garment. A positioning mechanism is provided for positioning an infant on a sleeping surface comprising a retaining loop for surrounding a sleeping surface that is connected to a wrap for surrounding the infant and the sack of the garment.

A swaddling device is described. The swaddling device includes a sack configured to substantially enclose a baby. The sack includes sleeves and an attached wrap configured to swaddle the baby. The swaddling device at least partially restricts movement of the baby and thereby suppresses the Moro Reflex, while also snugly enveloping the torso of the baby and thereby providing constant moderate pressure thereto. The wrap is sufficiently narrow so as not to restrict movement of the baby's hips and knees, while also providing access to the lower portion of the baby for diaper changes. Some versions of the device include sleeves having at their ends foldover mitten cuffs or other selectively openable mechanism. The cuffs allow a caregiver to expose the hand or hands of the baby so as to provide skin-to-skin contact. Alternatively, the caregiver can close the cuffs if scratching is a concern.
